Charlie Musselwhite

Album of the Week 8-8-26

Afternoon folks!

This week we've got an album from a singer known for sounding a lot like B.B. King, notably joined on the album by the guitarist Earl Hooker. After that, there's an album from Chicago blues piano player Roosevelt Sykes followed by one from harmonica player Charlie Musselwhite. After that we've got some blues rock from guitarist Harvey Mandel - probably best known for his work with Canned Heat and John Mayall's band. A little more blues rock follows from Blodwyn Pig a british band formed by the first guitarist of Jethro Tull (Mick Abrahams). We finish off with an album of prog rock from Asia featuring Steve Howe (Yes) and Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake & Palmer).

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Album of the Week - 6-11-22

Afternoon folks!

More great stuff! Muddy Waters. Sonny Boy Williamson with Jimmy Page - recorded in 1965 when Page was mostly working as a studio sideman, there are only hints of his later style, but Sonny Boy is great of course. Jimmy Reed and Charlie Musselwhite for a little more harmonica goodness. There's John Mayall's transition album to a more jazz-infused style, a mid-70's Savoy Brown album and some bluegrass with the Doug Dillard Band and fiddler Byron Berline.

Enjoy!
