Afternoon folks!

This week we start off with a great album from Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson, formerly of the Muddy Waters Band. Following that is a live album from jazz and blues guitarist Floyd McDaniel and a studio album from Henry Butler a talented blues piano player. Finishing up we have a large collection of live performances and demos by the Peter Green era Fleetwood Mac.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

This week we've got some great stuff especially for guitar fans. Starting out we have a live album from New Orleans blues guitarist Snooks Eaglin, followed by a compilation of Chicago blues harmonica player Billy Boy Arnold's early recordings. After that we have another live album from Fleetwood Mac back when they were a blues band featuring Peter Green on guitar. After that it's on to some live rockabilly with Robert Gordon and Danny Gatton and we finish up in the bluegrass lane with a couple of sets from Old & In The Way featuring Jerry Garcia on the banjo along with Vassar Clements, Peter Rowan, David Grisman and John Kahn.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

This week we've got some Koko Taylor and some Bo Diddley in the blues category. In the blues-rock category we've got a bunch of stuff - an album from Robin Trower, an EP from Canned Heat in the mid-80's, an album from The Pirates, a compilation album from Faces and the part of a mid-period Fleetwood Mac album that the lords of copyright will allow to be heard. To finish off, in the diversity department there's a psychedelic album from Strawberry Alarm Clock.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

I hope that you're all having a great, long fall weekend. This week we've got a blues album from Little Milton in I suppose the middle part of his career when he was recording for Chess records. After that we've got some live zydeco from Queen Ida. Then there's a bunch of blues rock - a double album compilation of early Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer, followed by a live album from Foghat. Then we go acoustic with a double live album from Doc & Merle Watson and we finish up with a change of pace - an album by Ghanaian musicians Osibisa.

Enjoy and have a great weekend folks!

This week I have a little less stuff than previous weeks because Youtube's algorithm has decided that it doesn't want me to upload very much - about a third of an album a day now, where previously I could upload a whole album every day pretty much. I had a couple of amusing chats with Youtube's "support" chatbot the second of which I'll embed at the bottom of the post, sadly I discarded the first without saving it.

Anyway, this week we've got Chicago blues piano player Eddie Boyd backed up by Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac to start us off. After that, there's The Paul Butterfield Band's Pigboy Crabshaw album followed by albums by John Mayall, The Elvin Bishop Band and Rita Coolidge for blues-rock content. Then we finish off in the rock vein with albums from Heart and Funkadelic.

Enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

Well, here we go again. New Orleans piano legend Professor Longhair starts us off with a live album, Percy Sledge follows up with a great soul album and then it's back to the piano again with Jay McShann, a staple of the Kansas City blues. There's a Fleetwood Mac compilation from back when they were a blues band and an album by another British group, Brian Auger's Oblivion Express and sticking with the British thing, there's a great Richard Thompson album. After that, there's a classic album by Gram Parsons and some Commander Cody finishes things up.

Enjoy!
