Mighty Sam McClain and Knut Reiersrud dedicated themselves to the music of the deep south and have given impressive proof that, when it comes to playing hard-driven R&B, soul or blues, it's not where you come from that's important.
On June 16, 2015 Mighty Sam McClain passed away. 'Tears Of The World' is his last album and will remain as a vital part of his recorded legacy. The Blues & Soulworld lost an outstanding artist.
A Grammy nominated musician, Mighty Sam McClain had been singing the blues for more than a half a century, tinged with an energy-boosting helping of soul. Since the deaths of Solomon Burke, Percy Sledge and of McClain's great inspiration, Bobby 'Blue' Bland, the soul preacher and blues-man has held the status of the only surviving R&B singer of the first generation.
Reiersrud and McClain selected the songs on 'Tears Of The World' together. The two men have included classics from the repertoire of legendary R&B labels such as Hi Records, a country number from Carlene Carter, and 'Que Sera, Sera,' not exactly a typical blues song, which is given the full rock apotheosis treatment. There are also, as is to be expected, songs written by Sam McClain and Knut Reiersrud themselves.
