Now, here's what you call a break from tradition. After bridging the gap between punk and blues on his collaboration with the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, A Ass Pocket of Whiskey, Mississippi bluesman R.L. Burnside ventures into the world of beats and grooves with Come On In, a series of remix projects with producer Tom Rothrock (Beck, Foo Fighters). The cynics among you may smell opportunism, but Rothrock is sensitive and respectful enough to Burnside's originals to do them proper justice. Even the 4/4 high hat and filtered sound effects of "Rollin' Tumblin'" sound appropriate to the music at hand. Though these treatments--largely instrumental--erase the most of the presence of Burnside's searing vocals, Burnside and Rothrock's adventurousness will win over most to their progressive-thinkin' boogie chillun'. --Justin Hampton --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

This sort of record would make a blues purist puke, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. The music is recognizably R.L.'s, but on most of the tracks it has been altered, either by a cutting and pasting of his sounds or by the addition of beats or sounds created by people from backgrounds completely different from his. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
