Afternoon folks!

Good stuff this week, we start off with an album from Sam Lay, a drummer for Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and scads of other Chess artists, later to become the Butterfield Band's drummer in the early days. Following that there's a late 60's album from Etta James and one from The Chambers Brothers from the mid 70's. Moving on to blues rock/r&b, there's an album from Wet Willie and another from Billy Price and the Keystone Rhythm Band. After that we're in diversity territory with a compilation of old recordings from slide guitarist Cliff Carlisle and we finish up with an album from The Red Clay Ramblers. (I'll be adding some tracks to the Ramblers album on Sunday)

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

This is another good week for the blues. Starting off we've got a late 70's Muddy Waters album, followed by a collection of Chicago blues acts (Carey Bell, Magic Slim & The Teardrops and Johnny "Big Moose" Walker) and finishing off with a compilation of LaVern Baker singles. After that, it's blues rock time with a greatest hits comp from Wet Willie, a later 70's Climax Blues Band album, an Elvin Bishop album and a Pretty Things album. We finish off in the diversity department with a hard to pigeonhole stylistically, but nonetheless interesting album from Don Nix.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!
