Album of the Week 11-4-23
Afternoon folks!
There's a big haul of good stuff this week starting off with 3 (count 'em) 3(!) blues albums. There's albums by Chicago blues guy Eddy Clearwater, Louisiana swamp blues harmonica player Lazy Lester and from the Pacific Northwest there's the Delvon LaMarr organ trio. In the blues-rock category we start off with an often overlooked album from Mike Bloomfield, John Hammond and Dr. John - whenever I used to play it on the air people would call the station to ask what is that? After that there's albums by Robin Trower, and the J. Geils Band.
If all that leaves you feeling like you want to mellow out, there's a lesser-known Van Morrison album and we finish off with acoustic guitarist Norman Blake recorded live.
Enjoy and have a great weekend!
Here 'tis:
Delvon LaMarr Organ Trio - Live At KEXP
Bloomfield / Hammond / Dr. John - Triumvirate
Robin Trower - For Earth Below
The J. Geils Band - The Morning After
Norman Blake - Live At McCabes

Thank you joe
for an especially stirring Van Morrison album.
I think I must be missing the ‘organ’ gene. I didn’t even like the sound of it while ice skating ; ).

heh, maybe it's not genetic, maybe it's just a vitamin b3 deficiency. (sorry, musician joke.)
have a great evening!

I’m sure I’m deficient in other musical vitamins as well. I’m sure you didn’t have to explain your clever joke to the many musicians here. Thanks for the smile.
I remember that Bloomfield/Hammond/Dr. John
LP, joe s. I don't own it, but it's a great collaboration. I've always been a yuge admirer of the good voodoo Dr., both as a rock and jazz pianist.
