Mose Allison

Album of the Week - 12-17-22

Afternoon folks!

Another week, another batch of albums for you guys. There's a compilation of Nappy Brown's earlier days doing r&b tunes, piano player Mose Allison has a live album and another piano player, Marcia Ball follows with a studio album. We've got a late 60's Butterfield Blues Band album and a Ten Years After album from later in their career - kind of a departure from their earlier albums. There's two albums by Richard Thompson and an album by prog-rockers Be Bop Deluxe (which the gods of copyright seem to have chosen to block a goodly chunk of).

Enjoy!

RIP Mose Allison, Middle Class White Boy

Jazz-blues singer and pianist Mose Allison died yesterday. He was an influence to the likes of Pete Townshend, John Mayall, Leon Russell (who himself died just a few days ago), and Bonnie Raitt. I'll miss him, and I hope to introduce you to some of his better works so that you might miss him as well.
