Album Notes
The soundtrack to the director Craig Brewer's sexually charged movie BLACK SNAKE MOAN expertly evokes the film's steamy Southern atmosphere, with contributions from the contemporary garage rock outfit the Black Keys, the mesmerizing Mississippi blues singer and guitarist Jessie Mae Hemphill, the juke joint performer R.L. Burnside, and one of its stars, Samuel L. Jackson, who performs creditable versions of the Blind Lemon Jefferson song from which the movie takes its name, and the blues classic "Stack-O-Lee."

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- Jessie Mae Hemphill's 'Standing In My Doorway Crying' simply breaks your heart.
Spin

3 stars out of 5 -- BLACK SNAKE MOAN could be the record that does for the blues what the OH BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? collection did for bluegrass.
Mojo

[Jackson sings] in craggy low-tenor tones that ooze sincerity. The high point of the disc is Jackson's assertive recitation of 'Stack-O-Lee'...
Living Blues

    Though this disc is packed with lots of great new and old gutbucket blues-rock from the Black Keys, North Mississippi All-Stars, R. L. Burnside and more, the real draw is the four cuts played and sung by Samuel L. Jackson with a crack backup band. Though he’s not a musician, Sam brings his acting to bear on some intense, fearsome renditions of “Stack-O-Lee” and the title track that stand up pretty well to the real thing.
