Buddy Guy`s 2005 release, BRING `EM IN, has--for better and worse--all the trappings of a "music`s elder statesman" album. In the tradition of seasoned professionals entering the glorious autumn of their careers, Buddy Guy has invited lots of guests to play on a record filled with well-worn chestnuts. With the exception of one tune by Guy ("What Kind of Woman is This"), the majority of the set comprises R&B classics by Isaac Hayes, Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers, Wilson Pickett, and Eddie Floyd.
John Mayer appears on Otis Redding`s "I`ve Got Dreams to Remember," which fits nicely alongside an even-handed treatment of "Ain`t No Sunshine" with Tracy Chapman. Keith Richards and Carlos Santana show up to chop heads with Guy on Keb Mo`s "The Price You Gotta Pay" and Screamin` Jay Hawkins`s "I Put A Spell on You," respectively. The overall feel of the album is exceedingly comfortable and safe, yet Guy still plays and sings with a great deal of vitality, proving that his induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame was no accident.
