Randall Bramblett - "Thin Places" (New West Records)
Since the early 1970’s multi-instrumentalist, ace
studio musician and singer and songwriter Randall Bramblett
has been a significant footnote in rock history. Not everyone
can stand in the spotlight, yet Randall has had a substantial
studio career performing with Widespread Panic, Elvin Bishop,
Government Mule, the reunited Traffic, Robbie Robertson,
and Steve Winwood.
Bramblett is probably best known for the work with his
primary band project, Sealevel formed when the Allman Brothers
broke up “for the first time” in the mid-Seventies
with Chuck Leavell, Lamar Williams and “Jaimoe.”
Influenced by R&B, gospel, blues, and rock, Bramblett
is an accomplished musician and plays keyboards, saxophone,
guitar, mandolin, and harmonica. Thin Places is
his fifth solo album and like many of his previous outings,
Randall writes of the connecting themes we all have in
our lives.
Bramblett’s previous records are all treasures and
Thin Places is no different. A genuine fusion of
Southern soul and rock with rich, warm playing, songs like
“Nobody’s Problem,” “You Can Be
The Rain,” “Black Coat,” “Playing
Card,” and “Gotta Stop Somewhere” make
this an album guaranteed for repeated listening.
