Lazy Lester – All Over You [Splatter Vinyl] – New LP

Regular price $ 30.00 $ 0.00

ORANGE & BLUE SPLATTER.  25th Anniversary. 

Top-notch crawdaddy boogie from Louisiana, shoe shuffling, hip swaying blues, the band focused on the song and the rhythm, footloose and fancy free, crawfish wiggling on the line and drop it in the pot, some key ingredients with nothing too fancy to ruin the recipe.  Tasty. -- winch


All Over You Review by Cub Koda

The last time Lester released an album was 1988's Harp & Soul on Alligator, an uneven affair. This 1999 effort for Antone's is a vast improvement with producer Derek O'Brien providing linchpin guitar support and fronting a band that includes stellar contributions from Mike Buck on drums and Sarah Brown on bass. Although the intervening years have added a bit of rust to Lester's vocal chops, the added graininess just enhances the performances of old chestnuts like "Strange Things Happening," "If You Think I've Lost You," "Irene," "I'm a Lover, Not a Fighter," "I Need Money," and "The Sun Is Shining." The classic Excello is called on for most of the album but the big surprise comes with two solo performances by Lester, singing and playing guitar on Lightnin' Slim's "Nothing but the Devil" and Lonesome Sundown's "My Home Is a Prison." His most cohesive album since his first for Excello.

All Over You is a forgotten gem, remastered and presented here for the first time on vinyl, nearly 25 years to do the day after its original release. Recorded raw with a band pulled from the ranks of Austin’s legendary Antone’s Nightclub, this session finds an older, laid-back Lester revisiting his classic Excello sides and distilling them to their essence. The remastered album features a bonus live recording of the Lightning Slim track, “Nothing But The Devil.” The audio was remastered from original source material and pressed at GZ Vinyl in the Czech Republic.

Tasting notes: leather, freshly-oiled gunmetal, boiled crawfish.


2023 pressing of 1998 recording, 65 year old Mr. Lester returning to his Excello sides from the 1950s and 1960s.  
American blues singer and harmonica player (June 20, 1933 in Torras, Louisiana — August 22, 2018 in Paradise, California), who made records for Excello in J.D. Miller's studio in Crowley, LA, from 1956 to 1967. Also accompanied other Louisiana blues artists.
