Number of Nothing Personal (2001) Reviews: 1
Reviewer: John Fitzgerald, Human resources staff database assistant October 09, 2001 This album is by far more R & B/funk/blues based than the rocking country of "One of the
fortunate few" which takes Delbert back to his roots a little bit though numbers on here
such as "Birmingham tonight" are obvious exceptions which have a tight reign of country
stylings though this one is of the slow clunky variety, similar to something John Prine
would have done on his "Common sense" album. Though I probably would enjoy these
musical styling more as it originally struck me as more musically adventurous, the
compositions on "Nothing personal" are not nearly as strong as the tunes from "One of the
fortunate few" were and as there are fair Bekka levels on "All night long" and not much in
the way of six string work for Rick to get going with on the songs on which he appears,
this seems kind of dull in comparison. There are some numbers that will get your attention
and keep you awake like "Squeeze me in" where Todd Sharp gets out some voltage but
George Hawkins is somewhat drowned on the numbers he's on. There's a couple of
passable slow quieter numbers like "Don't leave home without it" & "All there is of me"
and some funk pieces throughout may remind some of the kind of work Bonnie Raitt
seems fond of but all and all, you're better starting with "One of the fortunate few", even
if this is musically more at home for Mcclinton. Sorry Delbert, nothing personal.
