Review

Ray Wylie Hubbard escaped the demons that devoured his contemporary Townes Van Zandt, but their shadows still flicker through his songs. Eternal and Lowdown is the fifth studio disc in Hubbard's decade-long comeback; stocked with deeply personal story songs, the preceding four albums were sometimes revelatory but often more than a little, well, heavy. Eternal and Lowdown confronts similar weighty subjects--religion, redemption, philosophy, and fulfillment, to name a few--but with a lighter touch and even a few laugh lines. This is blues music, full of black dogs, devils, gamblers, and catfish bones, but it's the celebratory kind of blues sung by a rambler that's returned, a seeker who has found. The producer and guitarist Gurf Morlix is practically an equal partner throughout, his stinging electric lead lines spiking Hubbard's squalling slide runs and giving the songwriter's visions their wings. --Anders Smith-Lindall
