Cliff Carlisle

Album of the Week 3-22-25

Afternoon folks!

Good stuff this week, we start off with an album from Sam Lay, a drummer for Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and scads of other Chess artists, later to become the Butterfield Band's drummer in the early days. Following that there's a late 60's album from Etta James and one from The Chambers Brothers from the mid 70's. Moving on to blues rock/r&b, there's an album from Wet Willie and another from Billy Price and the Keystone Rhythm Band. After that we're in diversity territory with a compilation of old recordings from slide guitarist Cliff Carlisle and we finish up with an album from The Red Clay Ramblers. (I'll be adding some tracks to the Ramblers album on Sunday)

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Album of the Week 1-25-25

Afternoon folks!

Leading off this week is an album from Magic Slim followed by some more Chicago blues from Detroit Junior, Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson and Queen Sylvia Embry. After that it's on to blues rock with albums from John Mayall and Catfish Hodge. I've found some more Funkadelic albums hiding in the basement and there's another one this week. After that we've got some acoustic country blues similar to the work of Jimmy Rodgers from a fellow named Cliff Carlisle. We finish off with an album from a great dobro player, Mike Auldridge.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!
