Afternoon folks!

I hope that you are all having a great weekend! Here's another helping of albums from my collection. Starting off there's a live Albert King album from the late 60's, followed by a compilation of singles from a couple of great New Orleans record labels featuring folks like Professor Longhair, Johnny Adams, Irma Thomas and Tommy Ridgely. After that we've got a bunch of rock for you from Little Feat, a fairly obscure psychedlic band called Fever Tree and The Pretty Things. Finishing up, there is an album from acoustic guitarist Norman Blake with mandolin player Red Rector and last but not least Jim Kweskin and The Jug Band finish us off. I will be adding some tracks to the Kweskin album later on Saturday night.

Enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

Well, here comes another bunch of great tunes. Starting off we've got Koko Taylor's first album for the Chess label produced by Willie Dixon, following that there's a 70's album from Texan Phillip Walker. There's a bunch of great blues-rock this week with albums from The Blues Magoos, The J. Geils Band, Roy Buchanan and Brownsville Station. In the diversity department, there's a Taj Mahal album which incorporates some of his Hawaiian and calypso leanings followed by a Jim Kweskin album in an early jazz vein and we finish off with an excellent album by Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin and Paco De Lucia.

Have a great weekend and enjoy!

Afternoon folks!

This week we've got blues from Chicago blues harmonica player Junior Wells and an album from Luther Johnson (also know as Luther "Georgia Boy Snake" Johnson, not the other Luther Johnson that played with Muddy Waters as well, sometimes known as Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson). Johnson is backed by Muddy Waters and his band. After that, there's an early Elvin Bishop Group album some Link Wray tunes and some early recordings of Duane and Greg Allman before they found their groove, though there are some hints of what was to come there. After that there's an album from Jo Jo Gunne which features their big hit "Run, Run, Run." Then there's some folk blues and general fun with Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band (featuring Maria Muldaur before she was Maria Muldaur) and for a bit of diversity, there's an album by a band formed by a previous member of the Fairport Convention, (Ian) Matthews Southern Comfort.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the tunes!

Hey, guys.
