Album of the Week 6-18-22
Submitted by joe shikspack on Sat, 06/18/2022 - 3:00pmAfternoon folks!
There's a whole mess of great blues here today. There's a compilation of Chess records artists including Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and Little Walter. There's also a Chuck Berry album and a Magic Sam album. There's plenty of blues-rock from Rory Gallagher's Taste, recorded live at the Isle of Wight Festival to Link Wray and Dave Edmunds. Rounding out the selection is a Doc & Merle Watson album.
Enjoy!

Here's the gist:
