Blak and Blu [CD]

Gary Clark Jr. - Blak and Blu [CD]

In addition to twelve of Clark's original compositions, BLAK & BLU also features a thirteenth song - a blistering cover of Little Johnny Taylor's (popularized by Albert Collins), "If You Love Me Like You Say / Third Stone from the Sun" (Jimi Hendrix) is actually a complete reworking of the song utilizing the Hendrix riff reinterpreted by Clark. The result is an extraordinary hybrid of the two ideas that breathes new fire to an old favorite.
