Rise is the debut album by the American musician Eddie Turner, released in 2005.[1][2] It was nominated for a Blues Music Award for best new artist debut.[3] Turner supported the album with a North American tour.[4]
Produced by Kenny Passarelli, the album was recorded at Stepbridge Studios, in Santa Fe.[5][6] Born in Cuba, Turner incorporated Afro-Cuban influences on several tracks.[7] "Gangster of Love" is a cover of the Johnny "Guitar" Watson song.[8] "The Wind Cries Mary" was written by Jimi Hendrix.[9] "Resurrection" and "The River" are instrumentals; the latter combined hip hop beats with a National guitar.[10][11] "Play It Cool" is a cover of the Freddie King song; Turner included it as his "standard" blues tune.[5]
