In a post modern world filled with mediocre music this album is a refreshing take on a genre that has its heart planted in the soul of almost every other genre of music heard today. Nelsen and the band kick off the party with a rockin’ blues tune titled “Don’t Stop Now” if you were sitting still before this number started playing you won’t by the end. It starts the album off right and leaves the listener hungry for more. Next up on the play list (Tell me “Honey why’d you do me wrong?”)is a catchy blues number with lyrics that I believe any man can relate to, but that aside it also has a “goodtime” rhythm kicked off with some “happening” piano that any enthusiast will sure want to hear. The next number slows the album down, in a good way; “Black and Blue” is a blues ballad that is capable of taking someone on an emotion filled roller coaster, the heart filled lyrics and the emotional emphases that pours out of Mr.Adelard’s heart while singing it, are enough to force a lump into anyone’s throat and if they are not quite sufficient to bring a grown man to tears the lead guitar riffs should kick the tears into overdrive. If anyone has a deep admiration for the saxophone and harmonica the title track “Blues Got a Hold on Me” is the jam for you, although both of these instruments are prominent through-out the album on this track they really stand-out, this track is another “goodtime” jam with all the fixin’s. “Didn’t have to leave me alone” has a long instrumental lead in and showcases all the talents that have already been presented to you on this album it’s a gratifying listening experience that mixes” boogie” with “ballad” and is good lead in for the next song. As soon as the album gives you a break from trying to bring you to tears it smacks you yet again, “Give it one more try” attacks the heart chords the same way “Black and Blue” does, this time with a strong saxophone backing and it is one of my personal favorites on this album. “Jacko’s in the bayou” is either a lyrical masterpiece that translates to “Nelsen’s in the Doghouse” with “Ezmirelda” being his significant other or it’s just a goodtime song with some goodtime lyrics, either way it is another pleasing song that makes you forget that you have been listening to the same cd for quite some time - because you have yet to skip a track and I guarantee you won’t be skipping this one. For some reason the placement of these songs (on the cd) seems to be perfect, although you have a wide array of different styles on the album each song seems to be strategically placed to lead in to the next one without a hitch, which is what happens from the previous song to “Jive Talkin’ Mama.” The title speaks for itself, and it is another pleasing harmonica jam that some how joins “boogie” with “ballad” again, which is not easily achieved for most but seems to be a cinch for Nelsen and the band. “Gotta Boogie” is the next track on the album and it is another rockin’ blues jam it seems Nelsen and the Band want to end your listening experience the same way they came in – with a bang! It’s a great toe tapping get up and boogie jam again with all the fixin’s. The last song on the album actually scared me when I read the title, thinking that the song “Ain’t Misbehavin’” by Fats Waller is great in its own right but had no place on this album, come to find out I was completely wrong. The Nelsen Adelard Band’s rendition of this song is touching, fun and original and is a perfect end to an outstanding album. The song gives you chills in the way an old black and white movie would - but it definitely has a modern feel and it seems to be speaking for Nelsen and the Band saying “so long guys see you soon on the next album.” For an entire album to not have one disappointing song on it is incredible, this album takes it one step further and gives you an exceptional listening experience with every track.–MIchael Giovoni

BIO: Born into a show business family, Nelsen was already a professional musician at 15. A true "Blues Journeyman" Nelsen earned his stripes playing tough, gritty joints and taverns of the East Coast Blues Circuit. He opened for and shared the stage with such greats as Muddy Waters, James Cotton, Matt "Guitar" Murphy and Pine Top Perkins. Inspired by these legends, Nelsen developed a melodic driving style on both guitar and harmonics. A world class blues vocalist, Nelsen's voice is truly an expressive instrument. Striking the right balance of torment, and tenderness so essential to this style.Nelsen recorded his first solo album "Blues Got A Hold On Me" with J Bird Records in 1999. Strong local sales and southern air play got him a deal for his second album with then fledgling label Hot Rod Records. Recording the basic tracks in LA and flying to Austin to put the finishing touches on the record with some of Austin's hottest session slingers. Jack Of All Trades was released to rave reviews in 2003.
His third album was a send up to the Louisiana style of Blues that has influenced Nelsen throughout his career. "Take Me Back" is a true showcase of Nelsen's vocal ability as well as showing off his songwriting skills, and his proficiency on guitar, harp and piano."Nelsen Adelard Unplugged" made it to #10 on the Living Blues Charts and features originals that have appeared on earlier albums plus some Blues standards. Engineered and produced by Richard Robinson ( Grammy Nominated engineer) who captures the raw organic dynamic of Nelsen's vocals as well as showing off his skills on guitar and harp. As Nelsen puts it "This album gives you an inside look into a weekend's worth of playing and singing with some dear friends"2007 saw the re-release of Nelsen's first album. Aptly re-titled Blues Still Got A Hold On Me. Remastering by Richard Robinson brought the early album back to life getting strong airplay and remaining on the Roots Blues Charts for over 15 weeks.
The new release is South By Southwest. The title has nothing to do with Austin's annual music festival, but it best describes Nelsen's musical journey from Los Angeles to his new home in McComb Mississippi.Recorded at Audiophile Studios located in the heart of the French Quarter in New Orleans, with Louisiana natives James Slaughter on bass and Greg Worley on drums the rhythms are simple but infectious and steeped in a southern groove.The album starts out with two live songs borrowed from James Cotton's song book and taken from a show Nelsen did with his Los Angeles band before leaving town in July of 06. One More Mile and Rocket 88 give the listener a strong dose of the live shows that made Adelard a staple in the LA Blues scene for many years.What follows are eight new originals. Spanning every facet of the Blues, From West Coast Jump, to Chicago Blues to New Orleans and back. There's even a Blues Rock number that's sure to raise some traditional eyebrows.Adelard lives up to his "Jack Of All Trades" handle by writing and arranging all the originals as well as singing and playing guitar, harmonica and piano. He once again teams up with recording wizard Richard Robinson to cook up this very tasty slice of American Blues Pie.
