That raw youthful energy and Welch’s old-school juke-joint jones blend full-throttle in the 10 songs on ‘I Don’t Prefer No Blues’, his second release for Fat Possum Records’ subsidiary Big Legal Mess. The album is a garage-blues manifesto that weds waves of prickly six-string distortion and gutbucket drums with Welch’s smoke-andash voice and mud-crusted guitar – and lives up to Fat Possum’s history of producing edgy but deeply rooted recordings by artists like Junior Kimbrough and RL Burnside. ‘I Don’t Prefer No Blues’ is the follow-up to last year’s ‘Sabougla Voices’, an all-gospel disc that marked Welch’s debut as both a recording artist and a songwriter. That album was heralded as a fresh breath of rust-bearing air, a throwback to an era of rural music free of from outside influences and a reminder that blues-fuelled primitivism is still personified by a handful of living Southern artists. Playing blues on stage since ‘Sabougla Voices’ release has proven transformative for the octogenarian resident of Bruce, Mississippi. He’s toured parts of the US and Europe and played for audiences of all ages at international festivals and such prestigious events as the Americana Music Association Festival and Conference in Nashville. Big Legal Mess label owner and house producer Bruce Watson took the wheel on ‘I Don’t Prefer No Blues’, steering Welch into genreblending sonic and creative territory. “The deal I made with Leo was the first record would be gospel and the second would be blues,” Watson says. “Honestly, I was just trying to do something different than your typical blues record – trying to f*ck things up a bit. I think I succeeded.” “Right now is a great point in my life,” says Welch. “I’m doing things I’ve never been able to do before and I feel good doing them at an age when a lot of people are dead. So as long as I can I want to go around the world trying to send satisfaction to people. Doing that is a great feeling to me.” Artist Leo Bud Welch Genre Blues , Psychedelia / Garage Label Big Legal Mess Buying Options 1LP Includes Download Code Format 1LP , Includes Download Code Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Poor Boy Girl In The Holler I Don’t Know Her Name Goin’ Down Slow Cadillac Baby Too Much Wine I Woke Up So Many Turnrows Pray On Sweet Black Angel Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Leo Bud Welch and more from Blues View Product Quick View Leo Bud Welch The Angels in Heaven Done Signed My Name Blues | Easy Eye Sound | 1LP Released 8th March 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Leo Bud Welch The Angels in Heaven Done Signed My Name £19.00 Genre: Blues Label: Easy Eye Sound SKU: 0855380008500 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 8th March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Various New Deal Blues: 1933-1939 Blues | Mamlish | 1LP Released 24th March 2022 £21.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Various New Deal Blues: 1933-1939 £21.00 Genre: Blues Label: Mamlish SKU: nn239346 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 24th March 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Lucky Peterson 50 – Just Warming Up Blues | Jazz Village | 2LP Released 20th December 2019 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lucky Peterson 50 – Just Warming Up £24.00 Genre: Blues Label: Jazz Village SKU: JV570135 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 20th December 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jesse Fuller Jazz, Folk Songs, Spirituals, & Blues Blues | Doxy | 180g, 1LP Released 29th January 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jesse Fuller Jazz, Folk Songs, Spirituals, & Blues £17.00 Genre: Blues Label: Doxy SKU: DOY676LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th January 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Mayall's Bluesbreakers Crusade (mono) Blues | Sundazed | 180g, 1LP Released 16th August 2011 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Mayall's Bluesbreakers Crusade (mono) £28.00 Genre: Blues Label: Sundazed SKU: SUNDAZEDLP5373 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 16th August 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Buddy Guy The Blues Is Alive And Well Blues | Silvertone | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 11th June 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Buddy Guy The Blues Is Alive And Well £20.00 Genre: Blues Label: Silvertone SKU: 19075812471 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 11th June 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Fleetwood Mac Before the Beginning Vol 2: Live & Demo Sessions 1970 Blues | Sony Legacy | 3LP, Box Set Released 7th August 2020 £43.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Fleetwood Mac Before the Beginning Vol 2: Live & Demo Sessions 1970 £43.00 Genre: Blues Label: Sony Legacy SKU: 19075935351 Formats: 3LP, Box Set Released Date: 7th August 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View JJ Cale Travel Log Blues | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 11th March 2016 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders JJ Cale Travel Log £19.00 Genre: Blues Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1609 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th March 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa Seesaw Blues | Provogue | 1LP Released 16th May 2013 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa Seesaw £16.00 Genre: Blues Label: Provogue SKU: 819873010081 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th May 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tedeschi Trucks Band Live From The Fox Oakland Blues | Fantasy | 180g, 3LP, Includes Download Code Released 5th June 2017 £50.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tedeschi Trucks Band Live From The Fox Oakland £50.00 Genre: Blues Label: Fantasy SKU: 7202315 Formats: 180g, 3LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 5th June 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Chris Thomas King Direct To Disc Blues | APO Records | 1LP, 200g Released 13th April 2015 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Chris Thomas King Direct To Disc £18.00 Genre: Blues Label: APO Records SKU: AAPO032 Formats: 1LP, 200g Released Date: 13th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Blues Start again
