Album of the Week - 3-18-23

Afternoon folks!

This week we've got two eras of Chicago blues represented - an album from Muddy Waters starts us off, followed by Washboard Sam with Big Bill Broonzy and Memphis Slim. After that there's Don and Dewey with a compilation of some serious r&b. After that there's Bonnie Raitt's debut album which features Junior Wells on harmonica on about 4 tunes, then it's off to blues rock with Steppenwolf's live album. Finishing up is an album by Weather Report.

Enjoy!

Album of the Week - 2-25-23

Afternoon folks!

Well, we've got variety this week. Starting off, we've got a double album compilation of Elmore James tunes, a few of which include Arthur Crudup, Bobo Jenkins and John Brim. Then we've got an early 70's Taj Mahal album followed by a whole bunch of blues rock. There's half of a Steppenwolf live album (the other half is a long jam which I have to work out how to split for Youtube), a classic Mountain album and the Blues Magoos. Then there's a compilation of the lesser-known band Love followed by an early album by the band Lindisfarne (the gods of copyright may have blocked a tune or two from this depending upon where Youtube thinks you are), an album by Curved Air and finally a little jazz fusion from Weather Report.

Enjoy!

America

The cities have turned into jungles
And corruption is stranglin' the land
The police force is watching the people
And the people just can't understand
We don't know how to mind our own business
'Cause the whole world's got to be just like us

Now we are fighting a war over there
No matter who's the winner
We can't pay the cost
