by Gene

Do It Like We Used To Do:
Live ‘96-08″ (2 CDs plus DVD)

MERCY sakes y’all. This is the deal of the day! A whole mess of vintage live NMA splendor, really cheap! Can you say 2CDs and a DVD for just $16.98? Great band, great music in an eco friendly package playing the groovy, snarly, funky down home mess this Horizon favorite of a trio are known for. This is the music of the South. Thank goodness.

The North Mississippi Allstars long-awaited retrospective project, 2 CD/1 DVD package includes two discs of music that highlight the band’s live performances over their first twelve years together and a full-length documentary DVD on the history of the band. The documentary includes interviews with the Allstars as well as incredible live footage of the band and the influential musicians that helped mold them from the beginning. Lead singer Luther Dickinson says this retrospective release “represents survival for a regional art form and tradition that stubbornly preserves and evolves”.
