Album of the Week 4-12-25

Afternoon folks!

This week there's some great stuff, starting with Chicago blues guitarist Magic Slim recorded live, followed by some great late 40's through early 50's r&b recordings from piano player Jimmy McCracklin and the Blues Blasters. Following that there are albums from harmonica guy Mark Hummel and a really excellent, not to be missed Mike Bloomfield album. Shifting gears a bit, we've got a mid-60's album from Doc & Merle Watson and in that country-folk vein with a little added electricity is a live album from Gram Parsons and the Fallen Angels (featuring Emmylou Harris). Finishing up, get ready to get spaced-out with Stomu Yamashta, Steve Winwood and Micheal Shrieve.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

unheard of. Thanks for expanding the horizons!
It is not that I have not listened, new stuff is fun.
Even if it is as old as the hills. A good set.

A mind that does not detest bad government is foolish.

After all the irresistible high steppin' music of Magic Slim and Hummel, I also enjoyed winding down with the spacey pace of ‘Go’.
