Press Reviews The RiverBluff Clan may have called it a day but their spirit lives joyfully on in the charmed songs of Jimmy Davis and charmed hands of Tommy Burroughs. Davis' 11-track solo outing, "Jimmy Daddy's Acoustic Song List," finds the singer front and center with only his rhythm guitar. The results, however, feel less like a song'shopping demo than a modern'day field recording where the Delta-Appalachia axis in Davis' country-rock originals is whittled down to its earthy essence. If you didn't know Davis wrote or co-wrote all these songs, you'd swear such tunes as Grandmother's Quilt, Devil's Den, Buffalo Road or Down Where the River Flows had been passed down for generations. And no slight against the sorely missed Clan, but you just may end up preferring a tune like Waiting in the Wings in its more immediate rendering here--yearning as high lonesome art. In lieu of arrangements, Davis's plaintively powerful vocals do all the suggesting, giving flight to melodies that echo like half-forgotten memories, half-rememembered tears. "Jimmy Daddy's Acoustic Song List" is an unassuming triumph and as honest a record as you're likely to hear. Four-star review by Bill Ellis, The Commercial Appeal
