This is one of the freshest and most exciting new releases of the last 5 years. Willie King and his band the ''Liberators'' work the low down ''Fat Possum'' groove with a socially conscious edge to many of his songs. Not only a musician, King also runs a rural assistance league in Alabama that helps impoverished families learn ''survival skills'' for the new century. King is an involved and aware artist, whose music is raw juke joint jam with enough meat to make it matter.
