Rick Holmstrom long ago joined the exclusive club of blues guitarists whose playing you recognize in two notes. His incendiary work with Johnny Dyer, William Clarke, Rod Piazza and R.L. Burnside proved that he could shuffle with the best of them, but on Cruel Sunrise the California guitarist was looking for something else.
The two CDs that comprise the Deluxe Edition of Cruel Sunrise evidence Holmstrom's blues roots largely in their sonic quality. Both Cruel Sunrise and bonus instrumental disc Lonesome exhibit the live, small room sound that lent exotic mystery to classic recordings by Holmstrom's heroes: Lightnin Hopkins, Mose Allison, Gatemouth Brown and Little Walter.
Rick Holmstrom - My band (Stephen Hodges drums and Jeff Turmes bass, guitar, saxophone and backing vocals) played a regular Sunday residency for years in LA, says Holmstrom. That audience just wanted to relax, drink and enjoy some good music, not be pummeled by it. We realized we sounded better as we played quieter - going for ambience, rather than the punch or impact needed for a Saturday night crowd. And as we got quieter everything sounded bigger. The quest for quiet but big sound finds aid in Turmes' sparse bass parts matched with his huge tone, as well as the inventive kit-plus-percussion drumming Hodges lent to recordings by Tom Waits and others.
