This gutbucket of blues, country, ragtime, string band, and jug staggers and sways like an inebriated mule. With an arsenal of acoustic instruments--harmonica, washboard, jug, kick drum, tuba, steel guitar, arch-top guitar, standup bass, ukulele, and tuba--Devil in a Woodpile has created a joyous romp that borrows material from many sources (Ray Charles, Bob Wills, traditional rural blues, original songs) and boils it all down to a primitive, primal soup. Rick Sherry (lead vocals, washboard, jug, harmonica) and Paul K (guitars) cut their teeth backing Delta bluesman Honeyboy Edwards and have the instrumental chops to prove it; Tom Ray (bass, uke) has been plucking for the Bottle Rockets and Waco Brothers. There's nothing really new to write home about (see Jim Kweskin), but these raw and raunchy boys don't seem like they spend a lot of time writing home. --Marc Greilsamer
