How many Jamaican-born bluesmen have recorded with John Lee Hooker and toured with Otis Redding? Its a safe bet theres only one: Eddie Kirkland, whos engaged in some astonishing onstage acrobatics over the decades (like standing on his head while playing guitar on TVs Don Kirshners Rock Concert).
But you wont find any ersatz reggae grooves cluttering Kirklands work. He was brought up around Dothan, AL, before heading north to Detroit in 1943. There he hooked up with Hooker five years later, recording with him for several firms as well as under his own name for RPM in 1952, King in 1953, and Fortune in 1959. Tru-Sound Records, a Prestige subsidiary, invited Kirkland to Englewood Cliffs, NJ, in 1961-62 to wax his first album, Its the Blues Man! The polished R&B band of saxist King Curtis crashed head on into Kirklands intense vocals, raucous guitar and harmonica throughout the exciting set.
Exiting the Motor City for Macon, GA, in 1962, Kirkland signed on with Otis Redding as a sideman and show opener not long thereafter. Redding introduced Kirkland to Stax/Volt co-owner Jim Stewart, who flipped over Eddies primal dance workout The Hawg. It was issued on Volt in 1963, billed to Eddie Kirk. By the dawn of the 1970s, Kirkland was recording for Pete Lowrys Trix label; he also waxed several CDs for Deluge in the 90s.
