Afternoon folks!

Prepare to bathe in wonderfulness. Starting out we have a great 70's Muddy Waters album with some really great tunes on it. Following that is a Junior Parker lp and a great Aretha Franklin record from her Atlantic period. After that it's on to blues-rock with The Butterfield Blues Band followed by a great album from Traffic. We finish off in the diversity department with a live album from a new wave band, Ultravox.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

It's gonna be a bluesy weekend, and starting off we've got an album from blues harmonica player and singer Junior Parker and organist Jimmy McGriff, followed by an album of soul blues from Little Johnny Taylor. After that we've got some rollicking blues from The Siegel-Schwall Band, followed by two of Chicago's finest and perhaps most underrated guitarists Jimmy Rogers and Hip Linkchain sitting down for an album of acoustic guitar blues. We finish up this week in the prog rock department with an album from Uriah Heep.

Well, it's a deceptively small haul this week. First we've got an album from blues harmonica player Junior Parker, followed by the first part of a 2 part Howlin' Wolf compilation, which is so large it took a few days to upload. It's worth checking out, it's not a greatest hits compilation and features stuff that you don't hear often. Finishing up in the diversity department is a nice album from Tom Ball & Kenny Sultan.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Guess what, there's some blues here. Heh. First we've got one of two Luther Johnsons that played in the Muddy Waters band, Luther "Georgia Boy Snake" Johnson, not to be confused with Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson, fronting the Muddy Waters band for his own album. After that blues harmonica player Junior Parker and jazz organist Jimmy McGriff contribute an album. Following that, it's blues guitarist Freddie King finishing off the blues section. Moving on to blues rock, there's an album from Johnny Winter and after that, in a more acoustic country blues vein is a fine album from Jorma Kaukonen and an album from the David Bromberg Band. Finishing off is my personal favorite album by Traffic.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

This week we've got blues albums from Junior Parker and B.B. King, Parker's album along with some cool blues has some covers of Beatles tunes that are quite interesting, especially the cover of "Taxman". B.B.'s album is mostly early versions of some of his classic tunes. After that there's some blues rock albums from Robin Trower and John Mayall (with Mick Taylor), Little Feat's first album and an album from J.J. Cale. Finishing off is an unofficial album of Bob Marley and The Wailers recorded live in 1975.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

This week there are two solid blues albums one from harmonica player and singer Little Junior Parker and one from Koko Taylor, there's a great zydeco album from Buckwheat Zydeco and in the blues-rock category is an album from the Butterfield Blues Band. For some diversity this week there's a bluegrass album from Jimmy Martin and a great rock and roll album from The Beat Farmers.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

An album by Muddy Waters starts us off this week, followed by a compilation of tunes from Little Junior Parker and Bobby Blue Bland - each from their early days with Duke records. After that there's a compilation album of r&b/doo-wop from Otis Williams and His Charms. Following that there's an album of Hot Tuna doing an acoustic set and an electric set live - I'm pretty sure that it's from a performance broadcast by KSAN in the early 70's. After that there's a Stray Cats album and we finish off with some bluegrass from The Dreadful Snakes, featuring banjoist Bela Fleck and Dobro monster Jerry Douglas.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

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!

Beaucoup de blues this week! Starting off, there's a crazy german album of Muddy Waters Band tunes followed by a mid-60's Jimmy McCracklin album. After that is a comp of early recordings from Junior Parker, James Cotton and Pat Hare (including the Parker tune that Elvis covered). After that there's some rock from A Group Called Smith, The Flamin' Groovies, The Tubes and a 70's band with Peter Rowan in it, Seatrain - the album has their one biggish 70's hit on it, 13 Questions. Some of you guys might remember that one.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!
