You Make Me Feel

2021 GRAMMY NOMINATED FOR BEST TRADITIONAL BLUES ALBUM Tracklist: Your Love Is to Blame 99 Lbs Is It Over I Die a Little Each Day Don’t Turn Your Back on Me Your Love Is Too Late I’ll Go Crazy Cracked Up over You A Woman’s Touch Walk All Over God’s Heaven If you turn your ears a certain way, You Make Me Feel (May 8, Fat Possum) by soul great Don Bryant can be heard as a love letter to his wife of 50 years, Ann Peebles.  That killer horn riff that kicks off the album? Think of it as a fanfare preceding the reading of a royal decree; or maybe it’s a funky version of a wedding march.  Written by Bryant and producer Scott Bomar, “Your Love Is to Blame” has the chorus of a good blues song: "Nothing in my life is the same/Your love is to blame.” But here, “blame” gets a halo. “I tried to turn this one around,” Don says with a slight grin. Then he explains, “Your love is to blame because we are together!” Produced by Scott Bomar, who recently scored Dolemite Is My Name and mixed by Matt Ros
