It's Good to Have You Back Again.......2007-03-30

Ah! Keith...the name, as understated as the song, 98.6, and his performance of it is still as groovy, expressive and powerful as it was then! Compared to today's inclination of unchangeable arrangements often invariably performed by generic artists who overwork the song by frantically over-singing to the point where any substantial melody of the intended well-penned structure is obscured by their extreme performance of it. No absence of melody or loss of reasonable sense of any of the songs' original melodic purpose on this compilation by over compensating to showcase the artists' busy phrasing at the expense of the song. Keith's 98.6 still sounds as fresh as the first time it was introduced over the airwaves. What magic it launched, emerging on the heals of the Beatles' Revolver, it reigns in the caliber of other tunes from 1966-67 that have rightfully retained their freshness and longevity, no matter how many times you've heard them. In the league and company of our fellow Brit Beats Penny Lane, On a Carousel and Ruby Tuesday, among other enduring classics of that era, along comes this American dude, Keith, and 98.6, being played all over the U.S. that winter. Keith's 98.6 conjures up great seventh grade memories for me when I would slip under my bed covers at night with my ear propped to my transistor radio tuned into WLS, Chicago to taste the fresh candy being presented every week. It was sweet and addictive. Wow! What a sensational period of music and to think that Keith is still gigging today. "It's good to have you back again...that music was the medicine that saved me...Oh! I love my baby!" Thanks, Keith, for one memorable and out o' sight classic, not to mention the other greats on this CD.

98.6 "the best song ever written".......2005-03-07

i have been a keith fan for a few years now
and must say when first heard 98.6 i was overtaken
by the arrangments , and the over sound of this timeless recording.
the rest of the album is just as great as the single "98.6"
long live Keith !

Album Description

Unlike the grittier sound associated with the Mississippi Delta, Callicott played in a relaxed style that had much in common with Mississippi John Hurt. Happily, Ain't a Gonna Lie to You is the first in a series of discs Fat Possum will be releasing from Mitchell's deep archives. Al Campbell All Music Guide

Great North Mississippi/Memphis style blues.......2003-06-07

Joe Callicott, who died a few years after these recordings were made at his home in Nesbit, Mississippi in the late 1960s, played guitar and sang in a less intense style than that of the classic Delta bluesmen. These fingerpicked blues, ballads and spirituals are more in the style of Mississippi John Hurt or the older Memphis songsters like Jim Jackson. All the songs are enjoyable; the best of them, like "Laughing to Keep From Crying" and "France Chance" (covered by Ry Cooder) are really outstanding and moving. Callicott was the teacher of Kenny Brown, best known as R. L. Burnside's second guitarist; on his recent Fat Possum CD "Stingray" Brown covers four of these songs. A great CD, but beware: six of these tracks appeared on Arhoolie's "Mississippi Delta Blues: Blow My Blues Away Vol. 2," although the sound is more vibrant here. The Arhoolie CD, if you can still get it, contains five Callicott tracks which do not appear on "Ain't A Gonna Lie To You."
