The language of the blues is available to everyone, and probably more to the guy who helped invent rock & roll with 1951's "Rocket 88" than to most people--though Tina's ex-husband might have thought twice before including quite so many lyrics on his comeback album about how women keep leaving him and he doesn't understand why. Even so, the whammy bar on Turner's Stratocaster has lost none of its sting. He bangs on the piano like a man a quarter his age, too, and when he manages to dodge the curse of modern electro-percussion, Here and Now has the drive and verve of the records he made half a century ago. Turner even reaches back for remakes of "Rocket 88" and a few other jump-blues faves, like Albert Ammons's arrangement of "Swanee River Boogie."
