Bad Man represents the finest hour of T-Model Ford’s unique Juke Joint sound. This is another one from the rough-and-tumble Fat Possum catalog. This is low-down, gritty blues. “As we drive Route 1, T-Model talks incessantly, alternating between the first person and the third person, as he relates a series of anecdotes that have no apparent connection. 'Can’t fight as good as I used to’ he says, 'but if T-Model gets his hands on him good, then he belongs to me good. Been married five times. No more. Best time I had with a woman is shackin’ with 'em. I first got married when I was seventeen, eighteen years old...I got a girlfriend in Sweden. Or maybe Switzerland.” — Jay McInernay, The New Yorker
