| 1. Gourds guitarist Kevin Russell launched back in 2010 but like any good soul music, his side project has only deepened with age. I Got Your Medicine is the fourth album hes released under the moniker and its a bit of an understated wonder. Firmly rooted in the Gulf Coast, alternating between soul and stomping swamp pop, I Got Your Medicine not only sounds right — this is music that celebrates tradition without being beholden to it — but the songs are smart and surprising, following conventions but celebrating the detours on a familiar path. The cover of Allen Toussaints A Certain Girl, arriving at the albums midpoint, reveals a lot: its loose and funny, cherishing the groove as much as the words. The same could be said about I Got Your Medicine at large: its funny, heartfelt, and dirty, a retro-soul album that never feels stuck in the past. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine |
