Blues From The Inside Out
Delmark DE 859 (2019)
Blues From The Inside Out is the most expressive project of Dave Specters 35-year career. Featuring his debut as a vocalist, the album is an exciting and timely celebration of blues, soul, jazz, funk and gospel. These are fine times to hear Specter, an evolving artist who embraces growth and discovery.
“I was always content focusing on guitar as my instrument and voice as a musician, Specter explained. Ive worked my entire career on the art of backing up singers and writing/playing instrumentals and never felt a desire to sing until fairly recently. People have always said nice things about my voice when Im emceeing a show or doing my (Blues From The Inside Out) podcast. Im getting inspired to write more songs that I sing, as Im honestly more comfortable singing my own words than somebody elses. Im looking forward to seeing where this road takes me.”
Dave Specter
Blues From The Inside Out includes a guest appearance on guitar by Jorma Kaukonen of Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna fame, who also co-wrote one of the albums 12 original tunes. Specter wrote the uplifting soul anthem for change March Through the Darkness, he takes a deep dive into Meters-Neville Brothers inspired rhythms with the instrumental Sanctifunkious and sings on the blues shuffle title track. Besides Kaukonen, Specter recruited the Chicago-based Liquid Soul horns and Latin-percussion ace Ruben Alvarez, each playing on three tracks.
