Having scored Juno and Maple Blues Awards nominations with his previous album, Songs Of Vice and Sorrow, Toronto bluesman Julian Fauth makes a remarkably confident, funny, occasionally dark and typically low-key follow-up statement with the 18-song collection Ramblin' Son, featuring the artist's rustic and energetic honky-tonk piano work, coolly casual vocals and a bevy of great guest performers. The style of the recording is, as was its predecessor's, definitely lo-fi, even claustrophobic, but these mostly original songs benefit from close recording and one-take spontaneity. The method reinforces Fauth's reputation as a genuine original in the Canadian blues firmament, a sort of Brecht-Weill character lurking in the shadows outside the big show clutching his bag of sinister tricks. Top track: "East Toronto Nervous Breakdown" – that's just what it sounds like.
