Afternoon folks!

This week we're starting off acoustic with an album from a great Piedmont blues guitarist, John Jackson, followed by an album split between two delta musicians, Son House (early recordings, when he was in his prime!) and J.D. Short. After that we move on to a double live album from Buddy Miles, recorded just after he had been working with Jimi Hendrix. Following that is a greatest hits album from my favorite Motown group, The Temptations. Finishing us off this week in the diversity department is an album of psychedelic wonderment from The 13th Floor Elevators - this is a modern pressing that removes the less-than-satisfactory applause track from a boxing match that was imposed on the original release of the album to make it sound like a live album, which is a big improvement in my book.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Here we go! Starting off we have an album from blues and r&b guitarist Little Milton during his 1960's Chess records period followed by an acoustic blues album from Eddie Kirkland. After that we have an album from harmonica player Charlie Musselwhite. Then we give the drummer some with an album from Buddy Miles who is known for performing with, among others, The Electric Flag and Jimi Hendrix. Finishing off we've got some 80's prog rock with a group called Asia that featured the guitarist from Yes, Steve Howe and the drummer from Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Carl Palmer.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

This week I've got a couple of good harmonica blues albums from James Cotton and a compilation of (Little) George ("Harmonica") Smith's early recordings. Then there's a mess of blues rock from Roy Buchanan, Carlos Santana and Buddy Miles, Hot Tuna and Bonnie Bramlett. Following that, there's another Richard & Linda Thompson album and finally there's some serious prog rock from Lenny White (from Return To Forever, for those of you following along in the hymnals) - Al DiMeola makes an appearance on the album.

Take care and have a great weekend everybody!
