Description:

ORANGE BLOSSOMS, produced by long-time cohort Dan Prothero and Grey, was recorded in north Florida and boasts some of Grey's most profound and moving music to date. The album features 12 songs (including 11 Grey originals) inspired by Grey's life experiences and visionary observations. With long-time friend and guitarist Daryl Hance, bassist/organist Adam Scone, drummer Anthony Cole, and the Hercules Horns of saxophonist Art Edmaiston and trumpeter Dennis Marion, Grey moves effortlessly from gospel-tent fervor to Southern-fried rockers to deeply emotional soul. ORANGE BLOSSOMS is a groove-driven masterpiece fueled by JJ's gritty, smoldering vocals and intense, funk-infused guitar and keyboard work.

4Mofro is awesome  Aug 12, 2009
saw this band live for the first time recently and they really put on a great show. Purchased this CD afterward, and it is very good. If you get a chance, don't pass up a chance to see this band.

5J.J. Grey's sound keeps getting bigger, but he never loses the essence of the swamp  Jun 20, 2009
As Country Ghetto had a bigger sound than Lochloosa, Orange Blossoms has a bigger sound than Country Ghetto. Not only is the sound more electric than Mofro's first two albums, now there are prominent horn arrangements. As J.J. has observed, Tony Joe White has always been one of his main inspirations, and even the swamp fox himself has used horn arrangements. However, the key to Mofro's music is that no matter how many instruments J.J. adds to the sound, he always makes sure to leave space between the notes. The album starts with a spare drum riff with plenty of space between the beats. Guitar and keyboards come in, but never filling in the empty space. J.J.'s voice comes in, and even when the horns hit there is still space between the notes. That is, and has always been the essence of Mofro's music, and it is impressive that no matter how much bigger the arrangements have gotten, that essence remains. This is Mofro's most rock-sounding album. That isn't a bad thing. It is just different. If you are still looking for another Blackwater or Lochloosa, it should be clear by now that you probably aren't going to get it. J.J. is evolving as a musician, but if you keep an open mind, you might get into it.

For further recommendations, see my review of Lochloosa and Country Ghetto.

5Great CD!  Mar 17, 2009
This is a really wonderful CD. I enjoy almost every song on it, but the best is "Orange Blossoms." I first heard this music on XM and so went to JJ Grey & Mofro's website, they have a great website and you can listen to all of their music there.

5Awesome southern rock cd  Feb 06, 2009
This cd is good all the way through - favorite songs to check out are "everything good is bad," and of course, the title track "Orange blossoms." Great storytelling and the band has an old-fashioned feel to it. I've seen these guys in person and they're awesome.
