Mighty sam mcclain 歌手简介
by Richard Skelly
Vocalist Mighty Sam McClain is a specialist in Southern soul-blues, one of the original masters from the 1960s, when the music enjoyed its peak popularity. He carries on the tradition of vocalists like Bobby Bland, Solomon Burke, Otis Clay, James Carr and Otis Redding. His excellent 1990s recordings are now widely available, but that wasnt always the case.
Like so many other soul-blues vocalists, McClain began singing gospel in his mothers choir when he was five. At 13, owing to disagreements with his stepfather, he left home and lived with grandparents for a while before hooking up with Little Melvin Underwood. He worked with Underwood first as a valet and later as a featured vocalist in his road show.
His inspirations included Little Willie John, Clyde McPhatter of the Drifters, B.B. King, and Bobby Blue Bland. McClain recalled seeing Bland at the city auditorium in Monroe, La. as a revelatory moment. Years later, McClain would open for Bland at Tipitinas, a blues club in New Orleans. To this day, he considers Blands nod of approval a high point of his career.
While working at the 506 Club in Pensacola, Fla., in the mid-1960s, he was introduced to producer and DJ Don Schroeder. Working with Schroeder, he recorded Patsy Clines hit Sweet Dreams. After this, several other visits to Muscle Shoals Studios in Alabama yielded singles like Fannie Mae and In the Same Old Way. McClain continued to create an ever-broadening audience for his singing via his engagements at the 506 Club and later at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem. He recorded a single for Malaco and two singles for Atlantic in 1971 before falling off the music scene for awhile.
For the next 15 years or so, McClain took menial day jobs, living in Nashville and New Orleans. The Neville Brothers and others from the Crescent City scene have been credited with helping him revive his career as a singer. McClain met Mason Ruffners drummer Kerry Brown, and the two put a band together. Shortly after, they recorded a single for Carlo Dittas Orleans label, and McClains recording and performing career was rejuvenated. After recording with Hubert Sumlin on Hubert Sumlins Blues Party for the BlackTop label in 1987, McClain began to re-establish his former reputation as a great soul-blues singer, touring with Sumlin and his entourage. By the late 1980s, McClain had moved from Houston to Boston. For most of the 1990s, hes lived in Boston and southern New Hampshire.
McClain didnt record his first studio album under his own name until he was 50, through his Boston drummer Lorne Entress, who made a connection with the California-based Audioquest label.
McClains Audioquest albums include Give It Up to Love (1992), Keep on Moving (1995), and Sledgehammer Soul and Down Home Blues (1996), the last nominated for a W.C. Handy Award. All received rave reviews from the critics, and for the first time in his life, hes in control of his own song publishing rights. Most of the songs on all three albums utilize a full horn section, and on top of this ride McClains deep, powerful vocals, oftentimes in self-penned songs. (Give It Up to Love has since been re-released (1997) on the JVC label.) Blues for the Soul (2000) was issued on Sundazed and Sweet Dreams followed on Telarc in 2001.
Since the late 1980s, McClains career has been on the upswing again since he put together some great backing bands and carved a niche for himself in Europe. McClain continued to tour the U.S., Europe and Canada.
