Another split disc of newer recordings and vintage recordings of the original band. Needless to say it is solid salad
all the way through......From searing guitar to rock solid rhythm, this band has always been the standard for traditional
blues in this era........Highlights include two GREAT versions of the tune "NIT WIT" one with JR. WATSON adding a
whole new dimension to the song and a live OVER THE TOP rendition by Fats himself from a late 70's gig shared
with Austin's finest.....The Cobras......
Deep In America follows true to the formula of the band’s previous two-disc set, “Road To Rio,” once again throwing open the vaults and treating fans to a virtual treasure trove of classic archival material obtained from two different eras of the band. Disc one gathers together a collection of recordings by The Hollywood Blue Flames featuring stellar support from guitarists Kirk Fletcher and Junior Watson, all drawn from various studio sessions over the years with previously unreleased material that includes outtakes, alternates and some newly recorded songs. Disc two contains more vintage live recordings taken from a variety of source materials by the original Hollywood Fats Band, showcasing the amazing talent of Hollywood Fats and the evolution the band was undergoing before his untimely death in 1986.
