Afternoon folks!
I've got a bunch of blues and blues-rock for you this week. Pinetop Perkins leads off, followed by Jimmy Dawkins and some mid-70's B.B. King. After that we've got John Mayall, a solo album from Harvey Mandel (Canned Heat) and a live album from Washington D.C.'s Nighthawks. We finish off with David Bromberg and some British folk-rock from Steeleye Span.
Well, there ya go - have a great weekend and enjoy!
Here 'tis:
Pinetop Perkins With Little Mike And The Tornadoes – After Hours
Jimmy Dawkins – All For Business
B.B. King - Lucille Talks Back
Harvey Mandel - Feel The Sound Of Harvey Mandel
David Bromberg - David Bromberg
Steeleye Span – Ten Man Mop Or Mr. Reservoir Butler Rides Again

Great tune selections joe s.
Browsing through your music library would be pure heaven for me.
Hubster is a big Jethro Tull fan, and an old pal and fellow Tullhead sent him a link to a Tull night concert done at Tanglewood back in 1970. This was before we met, and I love early Tull myself. 
Rec'd!!

evening orlbucfan...
heh, well, i have a bunch of tull records in the collection. i haven't gotten around to posting any of them, though.
my music collection is still in disorder, though, and will probably remain that way for quite a while.
have a good one!
Great soundscape Joe!
Hey Joe,
Great sheet as always man! That was a great B.B. album, lot's of his seem short to me, 30 min. or so... It's over too soon.
Some great playin' there.
That John Mayall USA Union was quite popular in socal in its time. Taylors bass playing was amazing. The David Bromberg was a word-of-mouth deal out there though. Most only heard of it from Dr. Demento playing "The Holdup" on his Sunday night funny songs radio show.
Loved that Buchanan last week too! Those last 3 Alligator releases were peak polished Roy.
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

evening dystopian...
a lot of bb king records seem kinda short. i don't know why he/his producers did that, he had a fairly large repertoire.
buchanan's alligator albums were quite well done, though i think i prefer his earlier stuff for its raw edge. i've still got a bunch of buchanan albums the clean up and post, so stay tuned.
have a good one!
