Roll Away the Stone is an album by American blues singer and guitarist Kelly Joe Phelps, released in 1997.

Phelps' notes state "All songs recorded in my used to be a hotel now it's an apartment building apartment, between airplane take-offs and police sirens, deep in the winter of 1996, except "Cypress Grove" and "Go There" which were recorded in an empty house in Northeast Portland.

Production remains a mystery..." Writing for AllMusic, music critic D. Elaine McDonald stated: "Phelps continues to grow as both a musician and songwriter, and his interpretations of classic blues songs show increased imagination.

"[1] Thom Owen of No Depression wrote, "Phelps began his musical career playing jazz, and those roots are evident in his introspective, sandpapery vocals on Roll Away The Stone...

He sticks to a simple and respectful reading of these numbers, relying on their timelessness and his silken voice for effect.
