''National Steel'' is a blues album by Canadian musician Colin James, released in 1997 (see 1997 in music). The album was recorded at ''Rat's Ass Studios'' and ''Mushroom Studios'' in Vancouver, British Columbia and mastered at ''MasterDisk'' in New York City. James teams up with his longtime friend Colin Linden to record a predominantly acoustic album running the gamut from delta blues, to jug band and Chicago blues. The album covers songs written by some of the greatest bluesmen including Otis Redding, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and Willie Dixon. The CD liner notes offer a brief commentary by James on many of the tracks. The album is named after the resonator guitar made by the National guitar company, also pictured on the album's cover. ''National Steel'' earned James the 1998 Juno Award for "Best Blues Album". ==Track listing== # "Shout Baby Shout" (Rachell) – 3:15 # "Rollin' Stone" (Waters) – 3:21 # "National Steel" (James/Burgess/Ward) – 4:52 # "These Arms of Mine" (Redding) – 4:44 # "Going Up to the Country" (Mahal) – 4:11 # "Fixin' to Die" (Bukka White) – 4:28 # "Somebody Have Mercy" (Cooke) – 3:32 # "Postman's Sack" (Bradshaw) – 1:40 # "Please Baby" (Chatmon) – 3:41 # "Ride & Roll" (McGhee) – 2:39 # "I Live the Life I Love" (Dixon) – 3:39 # "My Mind Is On Vacation" (Allison) – 3:34 # "Before the Dawn" (Linden) – 4:24 # "Kind-Hearted Woman" (Johnson) – 2:41 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Steel (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
