Product Description Sleepy LaBeef is a master of American roots music styles. Uniting gospel, blues, country and rock’n’roll under the all-encompassing banner of Rockabilly, Sleepy delivers an album that plays like one of his legendary live shows. Tienda “My hair may be turning gray,” Sleepy LaBeef sings on his new album, “but that don’t affect the way I feel. There may be some snow up on the mountain, but there’s a lot of fire down on the hill.” The song is Muddy Waters’ “Young Fashioned Ways,” and LaBeef sounds just like what he is: a restless 59-year-old hillbilly musician singing the blues. The hillbilly and blues elements in LaBeef’s music have never quite blended and they bump up against each other as if he were reinventing rock & roll every time he makes a recording. His new one, “Strange Things Happening,” comes closer to the unpredictable excitement of LaBeef’s live shows than anything he’s ever done in a studio. Coproduced by music historian Peter Guralnick and his brother Jake, “Strange Things Happening” jumps all over the musical map–from Wynn Stewart’s Bakersfield-sound “Playboy” to Johnny Cash’s rockabilly “You’re My Baby,” from Ernest Tubb’s self-described “Waltz Across Texas” to Sister Rosetta Tharpe’s gospelshout title tune. Believe it or not, that’s a typical set list for LaBeef, who reportedly knows more than 6,000 songs from all genres. The common denominator in every performance is LaBeef himself, never subtle but always enthusiastic as he tries to reconcile his lusty taste for the blues and his romantic affection for country in his deep, bellowing baritone and his let-her-rip approach to the guitar. Seldom has he sounded as comfortable and spontaneous in the studio as he does with this small, responsive combo. –Geoffrey Himes
