Will Brady Review of "Boxwork" @ iTunes he double-entendre of the title "Boxwork" isn't fully realized until you read the credits, wherein Will Brady dedicates this CD to his grandmother who worked in a box factory all her life. When I finally "got" it, the image of James Taylor's heroine in his song "Millworker" subliminally registered with me as a poignant preamble to much of the mood wafting from this solo acoustic guitar recording. Will Brady says that he "went for feel, mood, adventure -- most of this is improvised". Hence, some of "Boxwork has the feel of John Fahey... rough, raw, spontaneous. Brady proves himself a capable country blues picker on Mississippi John Hurt's "My Creole Belle", Brownie McGhee's "Trouble in Mind", and the traditional "Blessed Be the Name". His fingerpicking on the latter tune is in fact reputed to halt Civil War battles (you'll have to buy the CD to "get" that one...). This CD gets an "attaboy". © Minor 7th Trouble In Mind Smiley My Old Pals Buckeyed Jam Sawdust Blues People Get Ready
