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 View Product Quick View Cedric Burnside Hill Country Love Blues | Provogue | 1LP Released 5th April 2024 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cedric Burnside Hill Country Love £21.00 Genre: Blues Label: Provogue SKU: PRD77281 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Junior Wells Hoodoo Man Blues Blues | Analogue Productions | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 16th October 2020 £65.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Junior Wells Hoodoo Man Blues £65.00 Genre: Blues Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AAPB 034-45 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 16th October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Muddy Waters After The Rain Blues | Get On Down | 1LP Released 6th April 2015 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Muddy Waters After The Rain £21.00 Genre: Blues Label: Get On Down SKU: GET54042LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Melvin Taylor Plays The Blues For You Blues | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 12th May 2015 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Melvin Taylor Plays The Blues For You £34.00 Genre: Blues Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPAN020 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 12th May 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bab L' Bluz Swaken Blues | Real World Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 10th May 2024 £25.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Bab L' Bluz Swaken £25.00 Genre: Blues Label: Real World Records SKU: LPRW259 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released Date: 10th May 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Doug Macleod Direct To Disc Blues | APO Records | 180g, 1LP Released 25th June 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Doug Macleod Direct To Disc £17.00 Genre: Blues Label: APO Records SKU: APO022 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 25th June 2013 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 Keb Mo Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues Blues | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 27th May 2022 £32.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Keb Mo Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues £32.00 Genre: Blues Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2033 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 27th May 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Various Artists The Rough Guide to Mali Blues Blues | World Music Network | 1LP Released 28th June 2019 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Rough Guide to Mali Blues £13.00 Genre: Blues Label: World Music Network SKU: RGNET1384LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 28th June 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Memphis Minnie The Rough Guide to Memphis Minnie – Queen of the Country Blues Blues | World Music Network | 1LP Released 6th October 2023 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Memphis Minnie The Rough Guide to Memphis Minnie – Queen of the Country Blues £14.00 Genre: Blues Label: World Music Network SKU: RGNET1422LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th October 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Blues Start again
