At 78, Burnside is old enough to remember sharecropping in the Delta, but his latest album is as cutting-edge a slice of nu-blues as you will hear. Remixed and reworked by hip hop heroes such as Lyrics Born, there will be those purists who will find A Bothered Mind an abomination. Anyone with a more open mind?and fans of Moby's Play in particular?will love its raucous boldness.
