oso Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 For a complete start to finish album it does not get better than this; 'Stones in My Passway' Quote With 'Stones in My Passway' Carmen Gomes Inc. embarks on a remarkable journey through the corridors of time. Paying homage to the legendary blues musician, composer, and founding father of the fatal 27 Club, Robert Johnson, their album transcends the boundaries of traditional recordings, offering a mesmerizing sonic road movie experience. 'Stones in My Passway' effortlessly transports you, each track being a gateway, to a world where time and space intertwine with the rich tapestry of Johnson's life. Imagine Robert Johnson walking alone late at night in the 1930s United States of America, en route to his sad demise in Greenwood, Mississippi. As he walks, he reflects upon his life, accompanied by the sounds of the night and the echoes of his memories. The small innovative soundscape vignettes, encompassing each song, weave a cinematic narrative to the unique road movie concept, further enhancing the emotional connection and depth of the musical experience. It's an immersive and evocative concept album showcasing the power of artistic vision and technical innovation, and a deep reverence for the timeless beauty of Robert Johnson's music. The heart of this album is Carmen Gomes Inc.'s inspired interpretations of Johnson's immortal songs. The synergy among the band members, with Carmen's sultry voice in constant dialogue with guitarist Folker Tettero, bassist Peter Bjørnild, and drummer Bert Kamsteeg, goes beyond their instruments' traditional roles. They elevate the emotions, provide solace, and weave a mesmerizing sonic narrative that further enriches the musical experience. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Carmen Gomes Inc. is their aptitude for cutting to the core and realizing the essence of each song. This skill, combined with Carmen's ability to deeply connect with the mood of the lyrics, has reached new heights, as exemplified in their rendition of 'Little Queen of Spades'. The remarkable collaboration between Carmen Gomes Inc. and award-winning sound engineer Frans de Rond captures this sonic journey. Renowned for his expertise and innovative approach, Frans brings a cinematic dimension to the recordings, solidifying his status as an industry trailblazer. His groundbreaking "one mic+" technique, utilizing the central Josephson C700S microphone alongside additional Josephson C700A, C617 and C715 microphones, creates a balanced and immersive soundstage.

AudioDoctor Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 As a fan of both Bob Dylan and Cat Power, and knowing this album has been out since last November, I am amazed I have not listened to it until now. But now that I did I will be buying it after I post this. It's amazing! If you dont tap your foot and turn it up, go see a Dr and make sure your heart is still pumping.

AnotherSpin Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Listened in the early 70s on Voice of America's broadcasts on shortwave radio. Then reel-to-reel copies on tape recorder. Then on LPs. Dweezil Zappa's new version seems to revive that half-century-old impression. The Computer Audiophile 1 Link to comment
