Gary Clark Jr. - Gary Clark Jr. Live

The first live release from Texas blues-rock guitar sensation Gary Clark Jr.!

Recorded from various gigs while touring for 2012's Blak and Blu

"The Chosen One" — Rolling Stone

"The most exciting blues-based instrumentalist to emerge since Jack White. His sound culls from a century of American guitar music. Performed with a panache that's wholy contemporary ... An absolute warlock on his instrument." — LA Times

To sum up Gary Clark Jr. is more challenging every day. He's a musical universe unto himself, expanding at a nearly immeasurable rate, ever more hard to define — as a mind-blowing guitarist, a dazzling songwriter and engagingly soulful singer. With his debut album Blak And Blu he has just become the first artist ever recognized by the Recording Academy with Grammy Award nominations in both the rock and R&B categories for the same album in the same year, winning the latter: Best Traditional R&B Performance" - "Please Come Home" (from the album Blak And Blu). Rolling Stone dubbed Clark "The King of the Summer Festivals" as he captivated audiences from Coachella to Glastonbury, Lollapalooza to the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, from Metallica's Orion Festival to Jay-Z's Made in America, and of course his hometown Austin City Limits Festival, where he his band set a daytime attendance record.

Great Live Bluesy Rock posted on 12/08/2014 4 Stars Reviewer: VicN The album has a good raw live sound. Unlike some other live albums, the audience doesn't interfere with the music. The sound stage isn't the widest or deepest, but it's good enough to give a good live atmosphere. The vinyl is also quiet and detailed. This is a double album, with the first LP filled with bluesy rock. The second LP has some slower blues ballads, which I actually prefer, but both LPs are solid and enjoyable.
