Tell 'Em I'm Gone is the album where Yusuf follows the blues back to where it lived before he ever picked up a guitar, produced with Rick Rubin and pressed on yellow vinyl.

Anyone tracking his catalogue knows he has done this before. Foreigner and Numbers both put the recognisable folk voice aside to chase something else entirely, and this 2014 record does the same thing, aimed at the blues and at Leadbelly in particular, a lifelong favourite whose fingerprints are all over it. Rubin is the obvious producer for this kind of return-to-the-roots exercise, and the sessions ranged across Los Angeles, Dubai, Brussels, and London, picking up Charlie Musselwhite's harmonica, Richard Thompson's guitar, Bonnie "Prince" Billy, and the Tuareg band Tinariwen along the way.

Five originals, five covers, and the covers are where the record's argument lands. Big Boss Man arrives loose and swaggering, Dying to Live turns Edgar Winter's song into something more resigned, and You Are My Sunshine gets stripped of every ounce of sweetness, reworked into a slow blues that sounds almost menacing. I Was Raised in Babylon opens the album with his own writing sitting comfortably alongside all of it.

The cover art he designed himself, illustrated by William Stout. He was always paying attention to the whole thing.
