Formerly a member of Delta Roux, Austin singer and slide guitarist Harry Bodine gloriously displays his terrific grasp of roots styles on the self released "Which Way Home".
"Drivin' Up Thru Memphis" rides a swaggering groove a mile wide, Nick Connolly's swirling organ vying with Bodine's guitar for highway mastery. "Time On My Hands" has Delta mud all over it, while the swampy "Twenty-Four Hours" is dark and oppressive, with buzzing, snake- charmer slide. "What Would I Do" by contrast, is delicate and touching, recalling Steve Earle's expert melodic and compositional sense. Each arrangement is perfectly conceived, from the funky "Can't Live Without It" to the weird, Waitsian "Troubled Mind" and the hard boogie of "Hip Street." With uniformly excellent song craft, singing, and playing, Bodine has created a daring new album in the often-stagnant Americana genre.

Blues Revue -- June/July 2007

Harry's songs are heavily influenced by American roots music, from black spirituals, delta blues to New Orleans funk.
