Afternoon folks!

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!

I've dragged some more good stuff out of the basement and cleaned it up - starting off with a great Chicago blues album by mandolin and guitar player Johnny Young backed up by Otis Spann and James Cotton (neither of whom need an introduction here i'm guessing). After that, there's a compilation of Magic Sam recordings. Then it's on to some blues rock with albums from The Elvin Bishop Group, The J. Geils Band and Foghat.

Following that there's an album by a later line up of the Flying Burrito Bros. and some New Orleans rock from The Radiators. After that there's a compilation of jazz-blues from Tiny Bradshaw.

We finish up with a jazz album by Bennie Wallace featuring (who'da thunk it?) Stevie Ray Vaughan and Dr. John.

Enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

Surprise! There are more albums.

Starting out, there's an acoustic blues album from one-man band Jesse "Lone Cat" Fuller, followed by another blues album by Little Junior Parker. After that there's the third album by Osibisa (a band from Ghana). Then it's blues-rock time with albums from the J. Geils Band, some members of Foghat between the time that they left Savoy Brown and when they founded Foghat and an album from The Blasters. Then we move on to country rock with a live album from The Flying Burrito Brothers and we finish up with a classical-rock album from Renaissance.

Enjoy!

Well, another week, some more music... First up there's some blues - a live 1971 album from Taj Mahal, followed by a late 60's Otis Redding album. Then there's a bunch of blues-rock with Delaney & Bonnie, a live album from Rory Gallagher and yet some more Foghat. Then there's a change of pace with some bluegrass/americana from Tony Rice, some country-rock with The Flying Burrito Brothers (I'll probably post some more from this live album into the playlist next week sometime) and we finish off with an album from Tony Joe White.

Enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

There's some more goodies for you this week. We start out with a late 60's album from Jimmy Witherspoon, followed by an album of a New Orleans piano "professor," Tuts Washington. We've got a bunch of blues-rock - a mostly instrumental album by Harvey Mandel (from Canned Heat and elsewhere), followed by a mid 70's Elvin Bishop album and we've got a mid 70's Foghat album. Following that there are a bunch of tracks from a Doc Watson album which I may add some to later - and we finish up with a live double album from The Tubes.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the tunes!

Well, there's a bunch of good stuff this week. There's some zydeco to get things rolling with a compilation of Clifton Chenier's Arhoolie recordings. After that Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder do their best impression of Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee - not to be missed! Doc Watson follows up with a mid-60's album and we change pace after that with Osibisa. Osibisa is a band from Ghana and worth a listen. Following that there's some rock with Foghat and some rock/prog with The Tubes to finish things off.

Enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

We've got piano great Otis Spann this week and a compilation of earlyish Detroit Blues featuring John Lee Hooker, Eddie Kirkland, Eddie Burns and Sylvester Cotton. Following that, on the harmonica we've got a great album by James Harman. Then there's a boatload of blues rock with Foghat, The J. Geils Band and Chris Youlden (formerly of Savoy Brown). After that there's one of my favorite Van Morrison albums, one by piano pounder Marcia Ball and we finish up with a later album by Steeleye Span.

Enjoy!

Another week, more great stuff... We've got a compilation of some classic Muddy Waters followed by a compilation of Pee Wee Crayton's better known material. After that there's a somewhat jazzier album from Santana, blues rock from Foghat and Rory Gallagher, country rock from Michael Nesmith and we finish the week off with The Tubes.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!
