Mose Allison was born in 1927. He is one of the most influential Jazz Blues artists of all time. He had a huge impact on the blues based rock bands of the 60`s. Artists such as The Rolling Stones, The Yardbirds, Cream and the Who have repeatedly cited Mose as a major influence. The Who made `Young Man Blues`a staple of their live repertoire. The Yardbirds and many others have covered Ì`m Not Talking`. He was later covered by 70`s `punk`acts. The Clash & Elvis Costello. Van Morrison did an entire tribute album to the man.
After a twelve year absence from recording , Mose, 82 years young has returned with a new album titled `The Way Of The World`. this is his 34th full release in a recording career now going into its 7th decade. The shear depth and breadth of his work is utterly remarkable. This new album recorded over five days with a small loose group of collaborators demonstrates that this man still has the fire and wit of an active and curious mind. The voice is weathered and leathery. There are touches of waltz, swing, bop and blues here and it is played out on the piano with artful crispness.
