Blackberry Smoke The Southern Ground Sessions (Vinyl, 3 Legged Records/ Earache Records, 2018) ***
Genre: American pop/rock
Places I remember: Fopp (Covent Garden)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Run Away From It All
Gear costume: You Got Lucky, Let Me Down Easy
Active compensatory factors: It's hard to tell whether this three song a side record is an EP, a mini album or an album. There are no clues on the cover. I'm calling it an album. So there!

The songs are obviously from a batch of acoustic songs that don't quite fit on yer usual electric Blackberry Smoke albums so it makes sense to release them on this stand alone album.
There is a pleasant relaxed looseness on show here with studio patter included before these obviously successful takes.
Two of the six songs feature Amanda Shires' vocals and fiddle playing. She's great too!
Where do they all belong? Much more to come from Blackberry Smoke on CD.
