Afternoon folks!

This week in the blues category we've got an album from Detroit bluesman and former sideman to John Lee Hooker, Eddie Kirkland. Following that, there's a late 70's B.B. King album.

Moving on to blues-rock, there's a 1977 album from Bonnie Raitt, albums by The Pirates and The Electric Flag. Following that there's some spacey-trippy music from Hawkind and we finish up with an album from Doc Watson - something for everybody? I dunno. Hope so.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Afternoon folks!

We've got piano great Otis Spann this week and a compilation of earlyish Detroit Blues featuring John Lee Hooker, Eddie Kirkland, Eddie Burns and Sylvester Cotton. Following that, on the harmonica we've got a great album by James Harman. Then there's a boatload of blues rock with Foghat, The J. Geils Band and Chris Youlden (formerly of Savoy Brown). After that there's one of my favorite Van Morrison albums, one by piano pounder Marcia Ball and we finish up with a later album by Steeleye Span.

Enjoy!
