Critiques sur l'album
Robert Cray is still on his career-long mission to yank the blues out of its nostalgic torpor. Alas, despite several adventurous arrangements, the accomplished axman with butter in his voice is only partially successful on Time Will Tell. There are moments of blinding inspiration here ("Up in the Sky," which juxtaposes Cray's electric sitar against the Turtle Island String Quartet), but too much of Cray's thirteenth studio effort winds up back at the done-me-wrong tavern, with the same dejected story to tell.
