Mourning in the Morning

Mourning In the Morning is a 1969 album by the American blues singer and guitarist Otis Rush. Characterized as his first album, Rush had been cutting singles since 1955. Paired up with some regulars the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, Nick Gravenites and Mike Bloomfield who were then a part of Electric Flag, the album fuses Rush's deep blues sound with both soul and rock. When released in August 1969 the album was panned by many critics, but has since grown a cult following.[1]
