A new Tim "Too Slim" Langford… of that man, we had very long heard nothing more, I thought. Precisely, but it is still only a half truth;Tim added in his pack immediately to his previous CD, which dates from 2003. How we die in our nose past have let me go is a mystery. Tim "Too Slim" is not exactly a sant in his own country, because his popularity is much higher in Europe than in the United States  this is perhaps because we Europeans are generally more open to the eclecticism in his music. Tim and his Taildraggers know perfectly well how you can mix with straight blues rock, countryrock, funk and even jazz.. The closing instrumental Too Cool for Tales Of Sin of the latter is a very good example. The whole CD bulkt fact of variation, ranging from driven shuffles through boogie and bluesrock until idiosyncratic grooves. Of the influences are, I do not know, but I detect a little SRV in Wish I Was Fishin 'and a dash CCR in Mississippi Moon.Moreover know Tim continues to captivate with its snedige guitar work that never goes over the top and slide his game is simply tops. The new CD, Fortune Teller, continues on the old path but still takes a few unexpected zwenkingen.The most surprising song is perhaps Mexico… which he does his guitar in duet with… steel drums. Rare combination, but it works perfectly.Even the acoustic valve Lonesome Alone houses a accordeonnetje, something that we are not just Tim.Other attractions on this CD are the title track with a rousing solo; Cowboy Boot with, what about you, a strong countryrock solo; Motherlode with another bit in CCR intertwined; stompend rocking the vehicle slide She Gives Me Money, and the very groovy Giver And Takers.Too Slim is so clearly back on the good track and hopefully he can combine that with something very different. Tim was so kind a pot Essie's Sauce to send because,yes, more recently, he owns this brand. A marinade, suitable for all kinds of meat, poultry and fish. The underlying taste can be compared with those of Worcestershire sauce, but in addition there is a very strong perfume that the taste of the meat a very special touch. We have experimented with chicken and monkfish andin both cases was the bingo with a nice piece of glacé. Next victims in our test are guinea fowl and tuna, and the water is already in our mouth.Two birds with one stone so, and we look forward to all of the first barbecue this year, with Tim Langford's Essie's Sauce and Too Slim's Taildraggers!
