Somebody Loan Me A Dime – Fenton Robinson

A gift from the Spotify recommended after a certain B.B. King album had concluded, Fenton Robinson’s 1974 Somebody Loan Me A Dime is a nice, laid back blues record. While it is certainly a bit one note, that one note is really nice, laid back, straight to the punch blues. Not much to say on this one – good for the blues fans.

Favorite songs: Somebody Loan Me A Dime, The Getaway, Directly From My Heart To You, Checking On My Woman, You Don’t Know What Love Is, I’ve Changed, Country Girl, Texas Flood

  1. Oh, man, I love this “stinky” blues sound. Fenton can really play!

    That said, yes, Blues is, well, not just one-note, but all the good “bluesmen” have a similar sound. Plus, the Blues reminds us all that, at one point or another, we’re going to feel down. ________________________________
