Review by Leo Winter

Ida Cox and Her AllStar Band's album "Hard Time Blues Take Him Off My Mind" is a masterpiece of traditional blues music. The album features ten tracks that showcase the raw talent and soulful vocals of Cox, accompanied by a stellar band of musicians.

From the opening track "Wild Women Don't Have the Blues," Cox's powerful voice commands attention and sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's tight instrumentation, featuring piano, horns, and guitar, provides the perfect backdrop for Cox's emotive delivery.

Standout tracks include "Blues Ain't Nothin' Else But!" and "Take Him Off My Mind," which showcase Cox's ability to convey heartache and pain through her lyrics and vocal performance. The album also features several upbeat tracks, including "Death Letter Blues" and "How Long Daddy, How Long?"

"Hard Time Blues Take Him Off My Mind" is a must-listen for fans of traditional blues music. Cox's talent and the band's musicianship make for an unforgettable listening experience.
