Robert Burton Hubele is a Canadian singer-songwriter, who has been active since 1972 as acoustic, electric and dobro blues, jazz and rock guitarist. He worked for years in the steel industry and wrote his first song at the age of twenty. “House Of The Rising Sun” by The Animals was Robert’s first interest in music. Hubele hit will be interested in the music of the old blues men and later by Chuck Tracy (a seasoned musician and his roommate) in jazz. His descent from rural Alberta can also be heard in his music. Commencement 70s hit Hubele captivated by the slide dobro, after hearing Bonnie Raitt. Raitt learned to play slide guitar by Mississippi Fred McDowell. After his album “Highway Of Dreams” (2012) Hubele (again together with his buddy producer Brad Steckel) recently released the album “She Will not Talk To Me” off. It is his tenth studio album with ten original songs and one “hidden” track.

“She Will not Talk To Me” is beside the opener of the album, a song from the movie “No Men Beyond This Point”. It is, as most of the songs on the album, a song with a story. Here the story of the man who finds the right woman, who turns out to be but just then in the company of the wrong man. “Life Is Funny” is a blues ballad with a positive message and “Sweet Talk” an uptempo blues song, which he was still in the prices. “Get (Down) To The Bottom,” a hallucinatory raga / blues song, is biting the special duck in the blues. It’s a song that no doubt remains as nahangen. “I Cried Your Name” is a country song, which refers to its country of origin and “Such A Little Thing”, a song about giving and receiving, is a mid-tempo rocker swamp, which does well with this. With “Without You” the pace is even more aware of, and then unwind in the country ballad “Baby Come Down”. Hubele wrote after a tour in Portugal down his impressions in the Latino rocker “Portugal”. The regular valve called “Oh Mama” and is a ballad that Hubele wrote as a tribute to his mother. She made under difficult circumstances, without ever complaining, for him and seven other children. The promised “hidden” track called “If You Love Christmas”. It’s a mid-tempo ballad, for which sounds very promising and already promising, the next Christmases. And “She Will not Talk To Me” Robert Burton Hubele again proves its versatility and musicianship. For lovers of “easy blues” music and where you can lie back in reverse, this is the right choice.
