Everybody's Gettin' Some is an album by the American musician Junior Wells, released in 1995.[1][2] It was his second album for Telarc Records.[3] Wells supported the album with a North American tour.[4]
Stereo Review noted the "interesting guests" and "fabulous sound."[6]The Indianapolis Star wrote that "the R&B emphasis takes away time from Wells' strength—his harp-playing."[10] The Ottawa Citizen determined that, "whether it's his slip-sliding voice or his fabulously expressive harp playing, Wells lets his guests have some room, but lets them know when they've worn out their welcome and it's time to hit the road."[5]
The Washington Post said that "Wells fuses blues and soul music with cunning and conviction."[8]JazzTimes determined that Wells "plays dynamics brilliantly, crooning in a sly, smooth manner of Al Green's before letting loose with an intense James Brown scream or a throaty Southside Chicago growl."[16] The Santa Cruz Sentinel opined that the opening track "could almost qualify as 'adult alternative blues,' if there was such a category."[17]
AllMusic deemed Everybody's Gettin' Some "the most worthless Wells album ever."[13]
