Known primarily for his keyboard and sax work with Sea Level, Gregg Allman and Steve Winwood, this journeyman session player and Georgia native takes center stage on his first solo album in 20 years. Bramblett has made little effort to modernize during that time—"See Through Me" mines a very organic, very 1970s groove. The title track recalls the extra-crispy R&B of Delbert McClinton; "I Burn for Someone" walks the same lonely city streets Bruce Springsteen drifted down on "Darkness on the Edge of Town." If the lyrics tend toward the generic, lost-soul-in-search-of-redemption variety, the evocative, heart-grabbing melodies carry the day. |
