Soul Blues classic features bass and production by Bill Laswell, rock solid drums by 20-year Parliment-Funkadelic alumnus Jerome "Bigfoot" Brailey, and horn arrangements and flute of Henry Threadgill, and material from Sly Stone to James Brown to Mick Jagger. Lucky Peterson seems to have set fire to the past with Black Midnight Sun – a molten slab of unusual and, dare we say it, slightly twisted updates of a fistful of electric blues, rock, soul and funk classics. Laced with alternating flashes of dark introspection and spiritual redemption, a good deal of the music here almost perfectly encapsulates, given the tumultuous chain of world events of the last two years, the mixture of uneasiness and expectation so prevalent in today"s political and socio-economic climates.
