Post Description

Time Slips on By album by Rich Delgrosso / John Del Toro Richardson was released Jan 18, 2010 on the Mandolin Blues label. There's no way to talk about Rich DelGrosso without acknowledging the fact that his weapon of choice, the mandolin, is not exactly the lead instrument most commonly deployed in blues these days. But that shouldn't be taken to mean that DelGrosso uses his axe in any remotely gimmicky kind of way, or that it's any less than fully integrated into the music on Time Slips on By. It's a tribute to his abilities as a musician and his sophistication and sensitivity as an artist that he can make the mandolin seem as natural in a contemporary blues context as the guitar Time Slips on By music CDs. Speaking of the guitar, DelGrosso's got some company this time around in the form of singer/songwriter and guitarist John Del Toro Richardson, a fellow Texan bluesman who trades off with DelGrosso on songwriting and lead vocal duties throughout the album. Richardson, who has played with everyone from Pinetop Perkins to Otis Taylor, has a smoother vocal style than DelGrosso's gritty growl, but his axe bears plenty of bite.
