Notes / Reviews

Producers: Scott Billington, Clarence Brown, Jim Bateman.
Recorded at Studio In The Country, Bogalusa, Louisiana in October 1982.
Considerably more varied than its predecessor, with nods toward the Louisiana swamp ("Sunrise Cajun Style," complete with pedal steel guitar), sentimental ballads (Cecil Gant's "I Wonder"), and jazz ("Big Yard"). Blues purists will perk up for revivals of Junior Parker's "Stranded" and Roy Milton's "Information Blues." ~ Bill Dahl
ONE MORE MILE is among the best of Clarence Brown's '80s comeback albums. A big jazz band backs the talented Texan bluesman/multi-instrumentalist here, and Brown plays with the verve and drive of a young buck. Guitar junkies will thrill to "Flipping Out," a wildly swinging blues shuffle that finds Brown riffing at supersonic speed. Fans of Brown's equally adroit violin playing should check out the stop-time sections of "Song for Renee"-he seems to defy gravity. Best of all is Brown's version of "I Wonder," a blues classic by rock precursor Cecil Gant. Brown sings with such intensity that you'd swear the story-a cheater's tale about a World War II soldier having doubts about his sweetheart back home-were his own.
