Cenla Focus Review of Steve Conn & Sonny Landreth Live Show
FALL 2005 STEVE CONN AND SONNY LANDRETH: PLAYING IN TONGUES H. W. Phillips On one night a year Alexandria has music which rivals the best found anywhere in the world: that’s when favorite son Steve Conn and Sonny Landreth hook up at Spirits and continue a musical collaboration which has lasted over thirty years. Watching Sonny Landreth play guitar must feel a bit like it felt watching Mozart caress the keys of the harpsichord. Sonny’s preternaturally long fingers flit along the guitar, the glass slide flashes, and the resulting undulating blues causes the hair on the back of your neck to stand up. Steve is virtuosic is well—sometimes playing a call and response between his B-3 organ and the keyboard stacked atop it—a case where the left hand definitely knows what the right hand is doing. Jamey Bell on drums and H.B. Smith on bass cement the band with a formidable rhythm section. But it is the chemistry which exists between Steve and Sonny that has made the Friday night after Thanksgiving at Spirits such an unforgettable experience for the last ten years. On Thinking in Tongues, a tune to be found on Steve’s upcoming album, he and Sonny demonstrated the musical equivalent of finishing each other’s sentences—Steve’s powerful singing and rollicking piano fills intertwined with Sonny’s blistering guitar solos. On Sonny’s Blues Attack, Steve eschewed the keyboards and played accordion as he channeled Clifton Chenier, and Sonny conjured Muddy Waters. Steve’s lyrical sensibilities are southern to the core and seem to owe as much to Faulkner and Flannery O’ Connor as to Randy Newman and Lowell George. -
