Brother North Star, bless you. My youth was spent in North Dallas, Texas in the 50's and I don't know why, but the blues was the mainstream for most of we male children. The uppity girls liked The Everly Bros and Buddy Holly. Man, I got stories. Jimmy Reed probably sold the most of his records to us. We had dances that could only be done to the blues. The North Texas Push and the Casa Linda Low Life were teenage art forms done to the blues. I used to attend blues reviews at the Dallas Sportatorium. Ten groups for $3.00. Colored folks- this was during segregation- had the all the best seats in front of the stage and white folks were seated on the perimeter. White folks out numbered colored three to one. Go figure. One time, when team letters were being handed out to baseball players at my school, they gave mine to someone else cause I wasn't present. I was at the Sportatorium dancing in the aisles and that's not bullshit. Man, me, and my friends, loved the blues. Saw Howlin Wolf in Ft. Worth at a dance hall and remember surveying the scene and whiskey bottles and even purses were standing alone atop tables cause everybody was gathered around the stage. He was laying down on his back in front of the stage playing.
How about Dallas' own Freddie King, "I'm Going Down". And, Texas white girl Angela Strehli's "Blonde and Blue" (Rounder). The fact that she only made two recordings is a cryin shame and an indictment of majority lameness. Don't be one of those and miss sourcing this and her other (HDCD) one, "Deja Blue" with a guitar player named Mike Schermer positively rippin it on the title track and a duet with Doug Sham on Tarheel Slim and Little Anne's, "It's Too Late".

Since you mentioned Angela Strehli, here is a kick ass album http://www.amazon.com/Dreams-Come-True-Marcia-Ball/dp/B000003MUL It is more rhythm and blues then pure blues, but whatever you call it, it is great music.

'Smokin' Joint' is a decent album but nowhere near indicative of what Kim can do live.
"My Blues' is interesting because it was recorded in mono.
Here's the first 'real' blues album I ever bought:

We got a little group down here called "The Songbird Society". Basically it's a couple with an old two story registered home in the Montrose area near town that open up their downstairs to members to listen to live sets of music. Members bring food and drink and Ruthie Foster played at one that my daughter and I attended. She was a blast.
-
Thanks for that recommendation on Ruthie. She's got a neat voice. Lots of "Feeling" and a truckload of soul.

I sat in with an old bluesman, Luther Guitar Johnson, here in NH, at a place called the Rienborne. I remember him saying to me, " Womens is the reason for the Blues.", but I still think women do it better. They certainly can sing and some of them, Rory Block, Bonnie Rait, can play a mean guitar.

Albert Collins "Cold Snap"
Yep. Da man. You can see a good video of him at a concert in Austin, Texas. I'm guessing it is accessible online. It's on DVD if not. Saw him live at a little joint in Fort Worth, Texas already documented here and that was one of the best down home concerts for me ever.
Nobody loving the blues should be without Buddy Guy's "Damn Right I Got The Blues". The last track is an instrumental, a tribute to SRV, if memory serves, that washes over you in waves, chorus after chorus of more intensity and deep feeling. Even if you are too something to appreciate that part, you can't help but admire the playing. I'm pullin your chain, damn right you'll appreciate it!

Hi all
I've recently discovered the new school hillbilly blues guys.
If you're looking for dirty funky soul, check out these "youngsters";
William Elliott Whitmore, Scott H. Biram, The Possession of Paul James, and C.W. Stoneking (an Aussie ).
Of the O.G.s; gotta love R.L. Burnside.

It was a sad day when he died in 1990. They had played for years in bars and fraternities and had finally reached a national audience just before he died. The original band can still be seen in the Chicago land area as the Chicago Rhythm and Blues Kings.

Hard Again is a 1977 Chicago blues album by Muddy Waters. It was recorded by producer Johnny Winter in a rough, bare-bones style.
Released on January 10, 1977, Hard Again was Muddy's first album on the Blue Sky label after leaving Chess Records.
If you've never heard "Mannish Boy" off of this album with Johnny Winter in the background it's friggin' awsome.
The album is worth owning just for that alone

What's the Mike Bloomfield cut where he cries out the names of all the blues greats? That's such a cool track.
Don't know, but I don't think it's on this one. My guess it's on, If You Love these Blues, Play them as You Please. I'll check by and by.

Savoy Brown ~ Strange Dreams 2003
Savoy Brown, originally known as the Savoy Brown Blues Band, are a British blues rock band, formed in 1965, in Battersea, South West London. Part of the late 1960s blues rock movement, Savoy Brown never achieved as much success in their homeland as they did in the United States, where they promoted their albums with non-stop touring.
I bought this CD for $1.99 over the weekend and to be honest I wasn't expecting much.
I must admit to being pleasantly surprised and I've played it now for the 3rd time.

Yes, he's still playing. Saw him earlier this year when he opened up for Buddy Guy.
His band was TERRIBLE! Likely, one of the worst performances I've ever seen on stage, and that includes the stupid bands I was in. "Wander This World" was an OK release, but other than that ... meh. His performance was lame - couldn't sing, couldn't play, can't write music or lyrics. And his band - embarrassinlgy amateurish and untalented. Blech! :shake:

Although he recorded thirty sides for Columbia in the late '20's, the Rev. Johnson was more interested in preaching the Gospel than being a musician. If you gotta suffer to sing the Blues, Johnson certainly qualifies. He was blinded by his step-mother in retaliation for a beating she took from Johnsons father for cheating on him. This is especially evident on his recording of "Motherless Children". He recorded mostly Gospel Blues in a "mean" bottleneck style. The folks who remastered these old scratchy and hissy recordings did an excellent job.

Buddy Guy ~ Heavy Love
-
From today's Writers Almanac, by Garrison Keillor:
It was on this day in 1914 that W.C. Handy published his "St. Louis Blues," his most famous song. Handy grew up in a cabin in Florence, Alabama. As a child, he could identify the notes and intervals of birdsongs and ferry whistles he heard from the Tennessee River. He eventually moved to Memphis, setting up his headquarters on Beale Street, where he studied popular music and became the first person to write down the music that would become known as "the blues." Handy was not the first person to play the blues, but he was the first person to write sheet music for it and make it accessible for mass consumption.
Handy said the lyrics to "St. Louis Blues" had been inspired by a woman he met on the streets of St. Louis who was upset after her husband took off. She reportedly said, "Ma man's got a heart like a rock cast in de sea." The song was a big success and earned Handy $25,000 annually.

The concert, however, was never lost to me. I recorded it live off the radio while stationed in Philly. Still have the reel to reel tape today, although I haven't played it in years. BTW, that has to be the least attractive picture of Rait I have ever seen. The photo on the back is much more flatering.

In checking out some new music this week I ran across Mark Knopfler's new double album called 'Privateering'. He includes some bluesy tunes in the 20 song release. Worth the time to listen to a guy who normally is more on the rock side of the ledger than the blues side. The WSJ had a few words to act as a guide to this new release if you have access.

It's 1981, you're visiting Chicago. You hear that Muddy Waters is playing in a small joint on the Southside. Since that's not a real big deal in the Windy City, you decide to check it out. Much to your amazement the Rolling Stones show up, along with Buddy Guy, Junior Wells and Lefty Diz. That's what happened. Can you imagine?

Recorded in the '20's, it's not exactly an audiophile recording, in fact it can be down right hard to listen to. But, how do know where you're going if you don't know where you've been?

A voice that's almost too perfect to sing the Blues. My favorite Odetta story is how she nicknamed Jack Elliot, "Ramblin' Jack". It wasn't that he traveled around a lot, he did, It was because he couldn't shut up.

Doc - if you don't have the DVD of "Blues at Montreaux", put together by Santana, you should check it out. 3 discs, Buddy Guy, Gatemouth, & Bobby Parker. They're all good, but Gatemouth is amazing (imo). He plays it all, blues, jazz, etc. It was video'd a year before his passing at 84, and he didn't miss a beat. :thumb:

There is one male and one female blues singer whose voice really irritates me - John Mayall and Susan Foley. BUT, their music is so good, after only a minute or so of the first track, my irritation gets suspended and I end up thoroughly enjoying their recordings. So much so I have many CDs by them both and consider them among my very favorite blues performers. That said, and considering it is too early in the morning for me for electric blues, think I'll grab this one next:

I'm just the opposite where Mayall is concerned, I love his voice. The 1st album I ever bought was Union USA after that I acquired as many albums as I could get my hands on. I own more albums by Mayall than any other artist (and I own a lot of records LOL). Favorites are (1) Looking Back (2) The Blues Alone and I'm not a big fan of some of his late 70's early 80's LPs but from 1989's Chicago Line to the present. "It's All Good"

+1 Bob2!
Have it (on CD)! Love it! In case you are unaware, also released from same recording session on Candid is "Walkin' Blues", also with Robert Lockwood, Jr.
Terrific stuff.
Picture below shows ticket stub signed by RL, Jr., from when I saw, and had the privilege of speaking with him, back in 2002 in Atlanta.
The famous bluesman Robert Johnson lived with Lockwood's mother for 10 years off and on after his parents' divorce. Lockwood learned from Johnson not only how to play guitar, but timing and stage presence as well. Because of his personal and professional association with the music of Robert Johnson, he became known as "Robert Junior" Lockwood, a nickname by which he was known among fellow musicians for the rest of his life, although he later frequently professed his dislike for this appellation.

Tip of the hat to rockadanny
Right back at ya Bob2. Always lurking out for your posts as well to scarf recommendations.
Last disc spun last evening was this gem I picked up at its CD release party a long time ago, back when I lived in Detroit.
Blues, rockabilly-style. Tasty guitar work from "Gorgeous" George and ethereal maracas shaking from "Fast" Freddy (RIP).
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=93041)
MODIFIED - My appologies to all blues followers, but this really is not blues blues. Not sure what I was thinking when I posted. At best it is jump-blues and/or blues-based. But it really is more rockabilly, and really more rock than billy. Sort of, as if Motorhead had a child out of wedlock with the Stray Cats, it would be the Twistin' Tarantulas. Excellent music nonetheless!

Ben Harper with Charlie Musselwhite Get Up !
I've never been the biggest Ben Harper fan but I heard the monster Hooker-style workout I'm In, I'm Out & I'm Gone from this album on the venerable Canadian blues institution Saturday Night Blues on CBC Radio. It blew me away and so I took a flyer on this album. It's really good. It straddles old & new, acoustic and electric, country blues and house-rockin' music. It's got Charlie Musselwhite. And it's on Stax !
Hot Damn !

Growing up in North Dallas in the 50's, R&B was the youth music of that time and place. I have a (The) Clovers' greatest hits CD in my car. Boz Scaggs and Steve Miller grew up there, too. Miller did a cute take of Johnny Guitar Watson's "Gangster of Love" on his first recording. R&B ruled! Square girls were listening to the likes of Buddy Holly and the Everly Brothers and so on. Dallas had radio programming at the time devoted to R&B. Here's a Boz Scaggs release that just nails what I'm talkin about . . "Come on Home" on the Virgin label. Grrreat covers of great R&B tunes . .

CANNED HEAT ~THE TIES THAT BIND
CD 1997 (Recorded in 1974)
Boogie-woogie blues rockers Canned Heat serve up a gyrating platter of previously-unleashed material, all recorded during three separate studio sessions. The album's final three cuts ("Reefer Blues", "You Tease Me" and "Something's Gotta Go") are the final recorded output from Heat founder/guitarist Alan Wilson, who committed suicide a few weeks after these studio sessions were made.
The album kicks off with the good-time party ambience of "Saturday Night Fish Fry". Track four, "Drunk", is a reeling 'n' rocking slab of slide guitar magic. Then there's the rhythm and blues grinder, "Harry's Open Pit and Bar B Que".
Canned Heat fell by the wayside in the '70s with the advent of disco and punk rock, but while those musical stylings have a tendency to come off as cliche and dated today, the Heat's blistering rhythm and blues still sounds as fresh and new as the day it was canned.

"I heard Momma and Poppa talkin. I heard Mama tell Poppa, let that boy boogie woogie". Might have been the other way around. It's only been since the 50's that I've heard this.

Ahh, truth be known... I saw your post over in the karma circle earlier and went and searched out the album. I was streaming it as I read this thread ane came upon your post here . Had only just heard the track a few minutes earlier !!
It is a great album, I am going to order it. Is Blue Highway equally as good ? It wasn't available to stream from the service I use

Dunno that one, Cap'n. If you can listen to her album Deja Blue online, DO listen to the title track for some down and dirty guitar work, and "Too Late" cause it is sooo real and features her in a duet with Doug Sahm tho he can't hold a match to her. Overall, I don't think this one is as good as Blonde and Blue, however :dunno:.

She's a fine singer and has graced this thread in the past. I also have her album "Soul Shake", but it's not as good as the aforementioned "Blonde and Blue".

Muddy Waters ~ Electric Mud
Electric Mud is the fifth studio album by Muddy Waters. Released in 1968, it imagines Muddy Waters as a psychedelic musician. Producer Marshall Chess suggested that Muddy Waters record experimental, psychedelic blues tracks with members of Rotary Connection in an attempt to revive the blues singer's career.
The album peaked at #127 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart. It was controversial for its fusion of electric blues with psychedelic elements, but was influential on psychedelic rock bands of the era.

Is that the Muddy Waters' album with pictures of him getting a conk? If so, it's the first Blues album I ever bought. It, unfortunately, got lost in the shuffle a long time ago.

1999 Legacy release (great sound)

1979 MFSL release of 1968 performance (also, great sound)
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=99437)

That MFSL release of Albert King (above), "great sound" is an understatement, especially considering a live recording. It is more like a sonic marvel. MFSL hit that one out of the park.
Another Legacy release, this one from 2010
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=99438)
And a 2010 Stax CD/DVD edition (includes bonus DVD) of a Canadian TV program (eh?) back in 1983 (palying CD only tonight).

And the last of these from my Founders stash
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=99441)

By the way, comparing the sound of SRV's Texas Flood (1999, Legacy) vs. Couldn't Stand the Weather (2010, Legacy), I much prefer the TF ('99) sound over the CSTW ('10) sound. To my ears/brain/system, the TF ('99) release sounds like music, while the CSTW ('10) release sounds like a stereotypical (no pun intended) CD - snappy, but missing harmonics/texture (bleached out), and grating on my ears.
Anyone else have an opinion comparing the sound of these two releases?
I think I'll go do a search to see if CSTW was released by Legacy back in 1999. Perhaps I'll prefer that one over their 2010 release?
Cha-ching! Just scarfed a 1999 Legacy release of CSTW on swapacd.com. I'll be able to compare once it arrives. I'm guessing I'll prefer it.

To my ears/brain/system, the TF ('99) release sounds like music, while the CSTW ('10) release sounds like a stereotypical (no pun intended) CD - snappy, but missing harmonics/texture (bleached out), and grating on my ears.
Anyone else have an opinion comparing the sound of these two releases?
I think I'll go do a search to see if CSTW was released by Legacy back in 1999. Perhaps I'll prefer that one over their 2010 release?
Cha-ching! Just scarfed a 1999 Legacy release of CSTW on swapacd.com. I'll be able to compare once it arrives. I'm guessing I'll prefer it.
Do you happen to know if the 2013 30th Anniverssary Texas Flood (also labeled as Legacy Editon) is the same recording quality as the 1999 release ? I realize there are some extra tracks (20 instead of the 16 on the '99 release) , just curious if anyone has compared these 2 releases as the '13 is much easier to find.
Wish we had access to swapacd up here in Canada, need a USPS address apparently , can be done but a bit of a PITA

Sorry, not me.
I ended up cancelling the swapacd.com (great service by the way, too bad not for Canada) order for the '99 Can't Stand the Weather. Instead I ponied up and ordered the Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs releases of Texas Flood, Can't Stand the Weather, Soul to Soul, In Step, and Sky is Crying on Amazon. SRV is just too desirable for me to futz around with trying to figure out which remasters will not make my ears bleed. I am confident :| these will be the optimal remasters for me as all other MFSL releases I have are terrific. For the $, they'd better be :cuss:

:lol:
A far cry from your $.49 swapacd original plan !!
You should be in for a treat.... I have yet to hear one of these MFSL releases, no SACD capable device here.
Enjoy, and let us know how they are :thumb:

Picked up 2 gems this past week. Thought I'd share here, thinking they might interest Blues lovers.
Oz Noy - Twisted Blues Vol. 2 - I own many Oz Noy records, he's an amazing guitarist. He plays a Electric Jazz/Blues/Funk style. IMO this is his best yet, a great modern electric guitar record! Guest shots by Eric Johnson, Chick Corea, Allen Toussaint, John Medeski, Warren Haynes, and more. Good stuff!
This next record may not be considered a 'Blues' record but I can't imagine anyone that digs the Blues NOT diggin' this record!;) Henry Butler & Steven Bernstein (& the Hot 9!) - Viper's Drag. Butler's a legendary Jazz/Blues New Orleans pianist. Friedman plays trumpet and leads the Hot 9 (played with the Sex Mob and in Levon Helms band). This is a classic (smokin'!) New Orleans Blues/Jazz record, check it out!
-
Listening to the Oz Noy album now :thumb:

I know I've posted some of his albums previously, but can't remember if I've done this one:

From allmusic.com : "All in all, it's one of the must-haves in this artist's very small discography -- a nice representative sample from Chicago's unsung master of the electric guitar, including the title track, "Anna Lee," and the atmospheric instrumental, "Off the Hook." "

If this isn't the finest blues recording ever made, I'd like to know what is. Outstanding performance; outstanding recording. All in the same room at the same time with no overdubs, mistakes and all.
Doc
I agree, great recording, the sound is incredible.
This album has the same kind of one room sound and placement of the instruments,I actually discovered and bought these albums the same day and they compliment each other very well.

It's the second such posthumous album (the terrific live and very electric BBC Sessions came out in 1999), and focuses on an important if lesser recognized aspect of the guitarist's career....."

I listened to Club Sessions and Wheel Within a Wheel streamed from Rdio. Sound quality haas realy improved over the past year or so.
Anyway, I really liked Wheels Within Wheels, definitely a different flavouor for him. I need to have another listen to Club Sessions as I kind of was interupted while listening to it.
I agree, it was a fun run of his albums !

Dang! :cry: Thanks for the update Doc.
Back in the early 70s he put on quite good live shows. I recall seeing him and his bro Edgar a few times in Detroit at Cobo back in the day.
I recall opening up that Second Winter LP back when it was released and being astonished that it had only three sides! Side B of the second album was smooth and shiny - no grooves. It blew my mind. I don't recall ever having another album like that - blank on one side.
Think I'll be spinning him today out of respect for his greatness. That, and the fact that I love his work.

Met Sam several years ago at a performance in Atlanta. Super nice guy. I enjoy his drumming style - quick and snappy, never heavy-handed.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=104403)
Bio from Allmusic:
Sam Lay was born March 20, 1935, in Birmingham, Alabama, and began his career as a drummer in Cleveland in 1954, working with the Moon Dog Combo. In 1957 he joined the Original Thunderbirds and stayed with that group until 1959, when he left for Chicago to work with the legendary Little Walter.
Lay began to work with Howlin' Wolf in 1960 and spent the next six years with that group. He and bassist Jerome Arnold were hired away from Wolf's band by Paul Butterfield in 1966 and became part of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, recording that classic first album. Lay toured with Butterfield until late year when he accidentally shot himself.
Lay backed Bob Dylan at the historic 1965 Newport Folk Festival, when Dylan first introduced electric rock to the folk crowd. He went on to record with Dylan on Highway 61 Revisited. He can be heard on more than 40 classic Chess blues recordings, and his famous double-shuffle is the envy of every would-be blues drummer. In 1969, Lay played drums for the Muddy Waters' Fathers and Sons album, now a classic. He was also the original drummer for the James Cotton Blues Band.
Later in 1969, he also worked with the Siegel-Schwall Band. He went on to form the Sam Lay Blues Revival Band, which has involved many players over the years including Jimmy Rogers, George "Wild Child" Butler, Eddie Taylor, and others.

Bio from Wiki -
In the mid-1920s, Davis migrated to Durham, North Carolina, a major center for black culture at the time. There he taught Blind Boy Fuller and collaborated with a number of other artists in the Piedmont blues scene including Bull City Red. In 1935, J. B. Long, a store manager with a reputation for supporting local artists, introduced Davis, Fuller and Red to the American Record Company. The subsequent recording sessions marked the real beginning of Davis' career and are available in his Complete Early Recordings. During his time in Durham, Davis converted to Christianity; in 1937, he would be ordained as a Baptist minister. Following his conversion and especially his ordination, Davis began to express a preference for inspirational gospel music.
In the 1940s, the blues scene in Durham began to decline and Davis migrated to New York. In 1951, several years before his "rediscovery", Davis's oral history was recorded by Elizabeth Lyttleton Harold (the wife of Alan Lomax) who transcribed their conversations into a 300+-page typescript.
The folk revival of the 1960s re-invigorated Davis' career and included a performce at the Newport Folk Festival and having Peter, Paul and Mary record his version of "Samson and Delilah", also known as "If I Had My Way" which is originally a Blind Willie Johnson song that Davis had popularized. Eric Von Schmidt credits Rev. Davis with three quarters of Schmidt's Baby Let Me Follow You Down which Bob Dylan covered on his debut album for Columbia. Blues Hall of Fame singer and harmonica player Darrell Mansfield has also recorded several of Rev. Davis' songs.
Davis died in May 1972, from a heart attack in Hammonton, New Jersey. He is buried in plot 68 of Rockville Cemetery in Lynbrook, Long Island, New York.

An album of Tom Waits songs performed by veteran bluesman John Hammond. That basically sums up what Wicked Grin is all about; only one song on the album, the traditional "I Know I've Been Changed," wasn't written by Waits. This gorgeous recording should appeal to fans of both artists: Waits's songwriting is as incisive as ever, and Hammond explores each song to its fullest potential as he makes it his own. Waits produced the album as well. Between them, the two musicians achieve a kind of synthesis that makes for a damn fine collection.

From AMG - All 14 of Bukka White's legendary Vocalion recordings. Kicking off with his lone 1937 single of "Pinebluff, Arkansas" and "Shake "Em on Down," the set continues with the marathon 12-song session from 1940 which produced such classics as "Sleepy Man Blues," "Parchman Farm Blues," "Fixin' to Die Blues," and "Bukka's Jitterbug Swing." This is personal blues, hitting on a number of subjects usually too stark for blues lyrics, but all on open-wound display here.

Anybody seen the recent baseball TV ad with Charlie Parker playing a blues ballad? The music is the star of the ad, it plays in the foreground for solid 10 seconds before the announcer chimes in and continues for the whole ad. The theme is "Got the blues" or something like that. I think it was on Fox broadcast 8/26. The only time you hear great jazz on TV now is when they are trying to sell you something. Jazz sells. But it's great to hear Bird playing in the foreground in primetime on Fox broadcast, during "So you think you can dance," I think

... [Derek] giving a sophisticated cast to his slide guitar, snaking it into elegant musical conversations with a rather frivolous flute, and some off time drumming that are reminiscent of the clean jazz fusion that Traffic used to conjure up. On the opening track, "Soul Serenade"/"Rasta Man Chant," Trucks inserts some of the languid licks and flirts with Miles Davis before devolving into Bob Marley. "Bock to Bock" is a more structured affair that recalls Henry Mancini. Gregg Allman sits in on "Drown in My Own Tears" and spits out the bitter words in his grizzled voice while Truck follows along in a perfect slow dance, punctuating each of the singer's phrases with his own mournful slide. Trucks ventures south of the border in "Afro Romp" and the band evokes the great jazz drummer Elvin Jones on "Elvin." --Jaan Uhelszki

Definitly not always accurtate for me either but then music is a very subjective thing so I guess one shouldn't expect any different.
I didn't actually discover Hubert Sumlin until not that long ago, I like everything I've heard prety much. There is just something about his guitar playing that just grabs me. I've watched a few little videos on Youtube of him giving interviews, he was quite the character as well :D

Haven't checked Mr. Sumlin out yet, do remember seeing you, Doc, or r-a-d having posted some of his work earlier. Limited funds for outlay at the moment. Just found a storage bin of LPs in my garage this week, increases my library by probably 30%, so am working thru those at the moment. Some real finds, things I didn't replace with CDs, and others that are simply classics imo. :thumb:

That 70th Birthday Concert was great BTW :thumb:

This one comes highly recommended. I had a small problem with the first download I bought, turns out it was entirely my own fault, but head engineer Frans de Rond responded within hours of my complain with a we transfer file. When I realized that the problem I initially had was non existent, I decided that this little company deserved a good write up. It is not often one gets this kind of service.
Carmen Gomes inc. ''Torn"
The two Robert Johnson covers proves what great songs they are and that you do not have to shout to tell the story of a Robert Johnson song.
The title song Torn is heartbreaking,
and the audio fidelity of this Hi-Res download is of the highest order. Check the sound of the double bass on the introduction to '' Let's go get Stoned'' and the sound of the guitar in ''Train Song''. This is what I call audiophile.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=112578)
http://www.soundliaison.com/products-from-our-studio-masters/15-torn-special-edition-carmen-gomes-inc (http://www.soundliaison.com/products-from-our-studio-masters/15-torn-special-edition-carmen-gomes-inc)
Torn was inspired partly by the tragic marriage of a close friend coming to an end and a strong artistic need for getting back to basics, The Blues. In a sense it is a concept album. The 9 songs follow each other in a logical order telling the story of a relationship falling apart. ''Come on in My Kitchen'' representing the initial attraction and the ''Thrill is Gone'' the end of love.
Carmen Gomes
The Torn album and Carmen Gomes has received white spread critical acclaim:
Her warm, enormously talented and controlled voice is completely unique and she knows how to get pure emotion across to the listener ...
The sound of the album is exemplary with dynamics of an addictive quality......the drums are practically visual and one feels as if one could reach out and and actually touch the singer.
Eric de Boer - Hifi.nl
Gomes Sings “You better come on into my kitchen, ‘cause it’s going to be raining outdoors” and what a wondrous musical kitchen she possesses.
The utensils are the thoughtfully played musical notes. The chef is Carmen herself, serving a dream-like melodic delicacy. We at Adore Jazz, play the music from Gomes’ new CD “Torn” with great joy.
Guy Zinger - Reviewer & Writer, All About Jazz
Station Programming Manager; Adore Jazz on 1 FM
Gomes has a bluesy voice, that balances gracefully between sensual surrender and control.
E. van den Berg - De Volkskrant
When she sings the blues, she sounds as if plucked from the cotton fields.
In a gospel-typed tune, one has to restrain oneself from shouting hallelujah.
Jeroen de Valk - Het Parool
...The most important thing is that she’s got the blues. I don’t mean she sings blues-songs - which also happens occasionally - but more importantly, in her phrasing you can hear everything that the blues stands for. That is quite an achievement.
Kees Polling -Trouw
Pure and accesible jazz with a bluesy feel, that makes you tingle.

You know, with the improvements in quality, I find myself doing more and more streaming. Stuff I really like gets added to "the list" and I watch for deals.
That sounds like a great DVD, I will have to watch for it. I enjoy sitting down for an evening watching a good concert and having a drink or two :thumb:

Too bass heavy, but the music is great.
She sounds like a Susan Tedeschi-lite to me. Her music is very good but her playing is a little light (plays like a girl?).
Her lyrics are good, but I don't believe her when she sings them.
I'd like to hear her do this same release 10 years and several hundred gallons of whiskey down the road.
But still, very good music. Easily recommended.
Hat tip to someone here on AC (sorry, I forget who) for turning me onto her.

Is it pretentious to reply to ones own post?
Anyway ...
On second listen to this Samantha Fish CD I'd like to drive over to the producer's home, ring the bell, and if he answers, invite him out onto the porch under the guise of wanting to discuss his decision to pump the bass level on this specific CD, then kick him square in the nuts so hard they turn blue for six months! WTF!? Are you friggin' deaf?!
Argh!!! This CD could be SO much more enjoyable without the bass twice as loud as it should be. Argh!! :evil:

Canned Heat ~ Boogie 2000
As far as I can tell the drummer "Adolfo de la Parra" is the only surviving member in the band.
He replaced Canned Heat's original drummer, Frank Cook and played his first gig with the band on 1 December 1967. He joined in time for their second album, Boogie with Canned Heat, and has played on every subsequent album up to present day.

Buddy Guy - Rhythm & Blues, double CD, one scewed towards rhythm and the other towards blues.
WARNING!!! THIS CD IS SO DAMNED COMPRESSED IT WILL HURT YOU!!! SICKENINGLY COMPRESSED!!! DO YOU HEAR ME???!!!
Also, not really blues blues, but more bluesy type rock. Which ain't a bad thing, at least not for me.
But I cannot play this anywhere near a satisfying SPL without causing pain. Low volume only, which really sucks because Buddy plays very well on this.
-
All- "Born Under a Bad Sign" is a bad-to-the-mother-jumpin-bone monster of a tune! Thanks, Danny. I have Buddy Guy's album Damn Right, I've Got The Blues (Silvertone Records) and his instrumental track "Remeberin Stevie" is a SOTA nutha mutha. Seriously not to be missed if you like blues.

Eric Bibb Sisters and Brothers
This new-to-me SACD is very sweet. Liking it a lot on its second time in my system.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=111396)
All Music Review by Hal Horowitz:
As its title implies, this is a spiritually based collaboration from three distinct -- even disparate -- yet surprisingly harmonious voices. Mostly, but not entirely acoustic, the trio of rootsy singers trade lead vocals on smooth jazz/blues ("Bessie's Dream"), folk-blues ("Good Stuff"), Delta blues ("Rolling Log"), gospel (an a cappella version of Sister Rosetta Tharpe's "Rock Daniel"), and combinations of those genres. On paper it sounds scattershot, but in actuality this is a thoughtfully paced combination of styles, united by three affecting voices. Eric Bibb's smoother Keb' Mo' approach meshes surprisingly well with Rory Block's more penetrating Delta croon and Maria Muldaur's sassy, sexy, throaty growl. Covers of Jimmy Reed's "Little Rain" and Bob Dylan's "Gotta Serve Somebody" with Bibb taking lead, and Bill Withers' "Lean on Me" (Muldaur and Block) show the disc's wide stylistic range. A musical seminar in how diverse types of music interbreed and influence each other, all three singers are in the moment with nobody commanding the spotlight for long. The barrelhouse honky tonk piano blues of Block's "Travelin' Woman Blues" incorporates both Muldaur's and Block's singing in the album's most convincing duet. Only a few songs such as the closing title track feature all three voices, and the album might have benefited from more instances where they all contribute. But the vocalist's exuberance soars from the grooves and creates a lively yet relaxed vibe that's contagious and often thrilling. The result is a cohesive, soulful, and powerful disc that will hopefully inspire listeners to find more material from each of its headliners.

Vivino Brothers Blues Band
I like this more than I thought I would. It's basically the band from Conan's show, so if you ever listen to a tune that you like and you wish they'd keep playing, this would be the album for you. It's got some tasty tunes and playing, and is a good recording. Recommended.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=111893)
Review from AllMusic by Alex Henderson
Those who watched 1990s late-night television should be familiar with the work of the Vivino Brothers, who were music directors for NBC's Late Night With Conan O'Brian. On that program, the job of singer/guitarist/pianist Jimmy Vivino and his sibling, singer/saxophonist Jerry Vivino, is to make O'Brian happy; however, on Blues Band, they sing and play for their own satisfaction. This decent, competent CD, which was recorded in April 2000, is fairly diverse. The Vivino Brothers are, as the album's title says, primarily a blues band, and cuts like "Feedback Out on Highway 101" and Lowell Fulson's "Sinner's Prayer" are gritty examples of urban electric blues. But the siblings detour into other areas, including soul on "Slippin' and Slidin'" and instrumental soul-jazz on Jerry's "Fat Burns," along with interpretations of Curtis Mayfield's "Pusher Man" and Sly & the Family Stone's "Family Affair." The Vivino Brothers don't just give us note-for-note covers of those 1970s R&B classics; instead, they take a hint from improvisers like Charles Earland and Grant Green and really interpret the songs. Brian Charette is the group's organist, and his work is right out of the Jimmy Smith/Jack McDuff/Earland school of organ playing. Blues Band isn't for blues purists, but it's enjoyable if you are the sort of eclectic listener who holds urban blues, R&B, and soul-jazz in equally high regard.

Son Seals Lettin' Go
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=111964)
AllMusic Review by by Hal Horowitz
After spending his entire recording career with Alligator, Frank "Son" Seals' debut release on the Telarc Blues label is also the Chicago bluesman's first album of new material in almost six years. Although he lost part of his leg to diabetes in 1999, as somberly evidenced on the cover photo, little else has changed. Seals' gritty, booming vocals sound as authoritative as ever, and, if anything, the half decade between studio albums has added an even tougher quality to his traditionally gutsy singing. Working with the legendary Al Kooper on Hammond B-3 and top-notch musicians from Conan O'Brien's late night band gives Seals a firm, razor sharp backing on which to lay down his tough Chicago blues. The four-piece horn section and Kooper work wonderfully together. Along with Seals' beefy vocal attack and his fat, stinging guitar tone, he turns in a solid, uncompromising set of primarily original tunes. The 70-minute album would be stronger if some of the weaker tracks like "Osceola Rock," little more than a bland rewrite of "Jailhouse Rock," were omitted. But the album-closing jam with Phish's Trey Anastasio on a remake of Seals' "Funky Bitch" is energized and electric, and with excursions into gospel, light funk, gritty country, Southern R&B, and even a sensitive ballad, the guitarist expands his palette while staying within the blues framework. All of which makes Lettin' Go a sturdy, hard-hitting, and above all welcome comeback album from one of the acknowledged greats of Chicago blues guitar.

This CD release brings together the original version of Nick Gravenites' "My Labors" with additional tracks taken from the LP "Live at Bill Graham's Fillmore West." Both of the albums featured recordings of Gravenites with a first-rate band consisting of Mike Bloomfield on lead guitar, Mark Naftalin on piano, Bob Jones on drums, John Kahn on bass, Ira Kamin on organ, and additional horn and percussion players.

Saw him with a horn section which made for an eight piece band at a club called "Tramps" in downtown New York awhile back. Dunno if the sound man was his or the club's but the sound was fabulous.

Evan, well, we're talkin a lot of years and a lotta miles. Treated myself to a trip to San Francisco a year ago and couldn't find a lick of jazz. But, heard some fabulous R&B in a North Beach bar that has been there since the 60's. Great that it survives as so many haven't. I can tell you that the picture above of Bill Graham's Fillmore West is not how I remember it in the least :shake:.

Keb Mo
The Door
SACD
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=112893)
AllMusic ReviewReview by William Ruhlmann
Keb' Mo''s self-titled first album, from its Robert Johnson covers to its appearance on a resuscitated Okeh Records, seemed to suggest the arrival of a Delta blues traditionalist, even though the former Kevin Moore was really a Los Angeles native who had kicked around the music business for years playing various styles of music. The follow-up, Just Like You, was therefore a disappointment to blues purists, since it clearly used folk-blues as a basis to create adult contemporary pop in the Bonnie Raitt mold. But to the music industry, that was just fine, since it fostered the hope that here was an artist (finally!) who could find a way to make the blues -- consistently revered but commercially dicey -- pay, and Keb' Mo' won a Best Contemporary Blues Album Grammy for his effort. Slow Down (1998) brought him a second Grammy and got even higher in the charts. The Door is more of the same. Keb' Mo''s slightly gritty voice and fingerpicking are the focus of the music, but he does not hesitate to add mainstream pop elements, beginning with writing partners who include Bobby McFerrin and Melissa Manchester, and continuing with a backup band that features such session aces as keyboard player Greg Phillinganes and drummer Jim Keltner. This is music that is folkish and bluesy rather than being actual folk-blues. Just in case anyone hasn't gotten the point yet, Keb' Mo' begins the album's sole cover, Elmore James' "It Hurts Me Too," in authentic folk-blues style, after which the arrangement lurches into a heavily percussive, anything but traditional direction. It's fair warning that the singer/guitarist is interested in tradition only as a jumping-off point. Maybe that's what "contemporary blues" is.

John Hammond - Got Love if You Want It
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=113435)
A 1992 release, produced by J.J. Cale. One of John's favorites (as he told me).
Guest artists on a few tracks: John Lee Hooker; and Little Charlie and the Nightcats.
I took this insert with me when my wife and I went to see John at the Atlanta History Center several years ago with hope to have him sign it. (I've done this with many inserts/performers). It is a wonderfully intimate venue. They used to (still?) do a blues series during the winter months called "Nothin' But the Blues". Terrific performers we've seen there (Dave Van Ronk, Maria Muldaur, Rory Block, David "Honeyboy" Edwards, Robert Lockwood Jr., etc.) Anyway, I wanted to speak with John after the show but he was swamped with admirers, so I headed for the bathroom. About 30 seconds later, in walked John. I took my time washing my hands so we'd meet at the sink. We did, and we talked for a few minutes. I think I was gushingly appreciative of his performance a bit - he beat the living crap out of his guitar and sang his guts out. He really put on a terrific show.
At the end I asked him how, after performing these songs for more than 40 years, he could still get so emotionally involved when performing them. He looked me in the eye, smiled, and replied, "Man, I love this shit!". And walked out the door with a wicked grin.

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band
SACD
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=113936)
All Music Review by Mike DeGagne:
Even after his death, Paul Butterfield's music didn't receive the accolades that were so deserved. Outputting styles adopted from Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters among other blues greats, Butterfield became one of the first white singers to rekindle blues music through the course of the mid-'60s. His debut album, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, saw him teaming up with guitarists Elvin Bishop and Mike Bloomfield, with Jerome Arnold on bass, Sam Lay on drums, and Mark Naftalin playing organ. The result was a wonderfully messy and boisterous display of American-styled blues, with intensity and pure passion derived from every bent note. In front of all these instruments is Butterfield's harmonica, beautifully dictating a mood and a genuine feel that is no longer existent, even in today's blues music. Each song captures the essence of Chicago blues in a different way, from the back-alley feel of "Born in Chicago" to the melting ease of Willie Dixon's "Mellow Down Easy" to the authentic devotion that emanates from Bishop and Butterfield's "Our Love Is Drifting." "Shake Your Money Maker," "Blues With a Feeling," and "I Got My Mojo Working" (with Lay on vocals) are all equally moving pieces performed with a raw adoration for blues music. Best of all, the music that pours from this album is unfiltered...blared, clamored, and let loose, like blues music is supposed to be released. A year later, 1966's East West carried on with the same type of brash blues sound partnered with a jazzier feel, giving greater to attention to Bishop's and Bloomfield's instrumental talents.

ALBERT COLLINS AND THE ICEBREAKERS, LIVE '92 - '93

This one comes highly recommended. I had a small problem with the first download I bought, turns out it was entirely my own fault, but head engineer Frans de Rond responded within hours of my complain with a we transfer file. When I realized that the problem I initially had was non existent, I decided that this little company deserved a good write up. It is not often one gets this kind of service.
Carmen Gomes inc. ''Torn"
The two Robert Johnson covers proves what great songs they are and that you do not have to shout to tell the story of a Robert Johnson song.
The title song Torn is heartbreaking,
and the audio fidelity of this Hi-Res download is of the highest order. Check the sound of the double bass on the introduction to '' Let's go get Stoned'' and the sound of the guitar in ''Train Song''. This is what I call audiophile.

Charlie Musselwhite - Stand Back!
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=118779)
supported by terrific guitar work by Harvey Mandel.

If you don't have this Charlie Musselwhite record you need to get it! I am tellin' ya. Charlie is wonderful, but Harvey Mandel just kills it on here! I'd venture to say it is his BEST work, and that includes his years with Canned Heat! He steals the show from old (young) Charlie boy, he is THAT GOOD!

Nice! ... thanks Bob2, I'll look those up. :thumb:
What prompted my question was last night, catching a late dinner in Marietta, GA, the place on which we settled had live music in the back. Cool! Nice rock and blues music selections, but poor execution. Guitar player was all thumbs while the singer sounded like a bad impression of Layne Staley (Alice in Chains). After hacking their way through "The Thrill is Gone", I had to rush home and spin some B.B. King. That is when I discovered I did not have a decent version of that song in Rocka de Casa.

Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam - Coming Up for Air
2009 - their second release.
Perhaps not quite as powerful as their first release, Roll Away, but very good music indeed.
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=139746)
I saw them perform their first release years ago in Atlanta - live, they were superb ... too young to drink, but they tore the bar walls down with their power and powerfully good music.
After hearing Back Door Slam at SXSW in March, 2007, Patrick MacDonald wrote in the Seattle Times: I heard the spirit of Jimi Hendrix coming from the open, streetside windows of a joint called B.D. Riley's. It was Red House, executed superbly by a surprisingly young trio called Back Door Slam, from the Isle of Man in the U.K. The club was packed and so was the street outside. Folks were transfixed by this kid on guitar, who played with a fiery spirit and sang with conviction, making the song his own.

Peter Green - The Anthology
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=151979)
2008 four CD set, the most extensive retrospective look at Peter Green's truly legendary career. The set contains essential Peter Green music drawn from all stages of his career. From his first tentative recordings with the likes of Peter Barden's and John Mayall, it moves through the genesis of Fleetwood Mac and the band's many classic blues recordings including 'Ramblin' Pony' and 'Black Magic Woman'. Fleetwood Mac's subsequent blues and rock fusion chart hits - titles like the utterly unique 'Albatross', 'Oh Well' and the haunting 'Man of the World' - are all included, as is the best of his later solo work and Splinter Group recordings. The set is stylishly packaged in a hardback digicase with 64-page booklet containing enlightening liner notes, rare photographs, memorabilia, plus commentary and artwork from Peter himself. Quite simply, this is the ultimate Peter Green collection - a special release befitting a special musician and songwriter who is rightly one of the most revered blues guitarists of all time. Salvo.

Disc 2: 19 tracks of terrific recordings music (IMO) from same time-frame.
Edit: Ugh! :duh: Disc 2 tracks 14-19, though good music, are so horribly recorded I'll not listen to them ever again. Ugh.

This one comes highly recommended. I had a small problem with the first download I bought, turns out it was entirely my own fault, but head engineer Frans de Rond responded within hours of my complain with a we transfer file. When I realized that the problem I initially had was non existent, I decided that this little company deserved a good write up. It is not often one gets this kind of service.
Carmen Gomes inc. ''Torn"
The two Robert Johnson covers proves what great songs they are and that you do not have to shout to tell the story of a Robert Johnson song.
The title song Torn is heartbreaking,
and the audio fidelity of this Hi-Res download is of the highest order. Check the sound of the double bass on the introduction to '' Let's go get Stoned'' and the sound of the guitar in ''Train Song''. This is what I call audiophile.

The new DXD recording, Carmen Sings the Blues, available in Flac and DSD downloads, has been recorded live in front of a studio audience and is incredible. The sound is very real, very natural. Highly recommended.

Otis Span - Good Morning Mr. Blues 2017 DSD 256
Samples (https://2xhd.nativedsd.com/albums/2XHDST1071-good-morning-mr-blues)
From NativeDSD.com "The recordings on this album were made in 1962 in Copenhagen for the Storyville label while Spann was on tour with Muddy Waters. They represent Spann in an unusual setting for him – unaccompanied or in duet with a single supporting guitar. In this set, Spann interprets both blues standards and his own originals. Many of these originals have the aspect of spurof- the-moment improvisations, which testifies to his mercurial gift as a pure blues story-teller. Because the clarity of both the recording and the sparseness of the accompaniment, this album constitutes one of the most valuable documents currently available of the Chicago style of blues piano playing at its best"

Mose Allison - Wonderland; and The Best Of - I merged these two releases, selecting the better sounding tracks which are duplicated, some of which recorded at different times, and also cherry picking, thus eliminating tracks I dislike resulting in a stellar DIY 2-CD package.

Man, it has been one smokey, dry summer. In approx the last 50 days, we've had no rain aside from about a 30 second "drip drip" last week. We did get some clearing with tha shift in flow but the smoke has been back the past few days. Hope it stays clear for you folks just south of us . Would be nice if it cleared out for the eclipse tomorrow even though we'll only get to about 80% of totality up here... still cool 8)

Alan Wilson - The Blind Owl
(http://www.audiocircle.com/image.php?id=174484)
(2-CD set) His was the voice of the Woodstock generation who asked 'baby, do you want to go' in the Canned Heat anthem Going Up the Country. Now Severn Records releases The Blind Owl, a compilation of Alan Wilson's greatest works with the legendary band he helped form. The Blind Owl features 20 songs of satisfying blues boogie including My Time Ain't Long, Mean Old World, and the band's breakout recording On the Road Again, plus Wilson's prophetic Poor Moon and fan favorite Time Was. In September of 1970 Alan overdosed, making him a member of the 27 Club. Still his legacy remains strong today as proven in this collection of remarkable recordings. The Blind Owl is a must for serious blues collectors as well as fans of 60's psychedelic rock. Packaged in 2-CD digipack with cover art provided by The 27s book.

Audiostream.com review:
Carmen Gomes: Carmen Gomes Sings the Blues
Another gem from Sound Liaison, this recording is Carmen Gomes' take on Harry Belafonte's Belafonte Sings the Blues.
Recorded in DXD, this recording is available in any high Rez flavor you prefer. The sound is killer.
Her style is bluesy and intimate with a sexy voice that's sweet as dark tupelo honey, and her interpretations are unerring. The musicians play to her and to each other, and the ensemble is so tight that the four musicians breathe and move as one.

Been looking for this LP for years. Can only stream it for now. Doug Quattlebaum was "discovered" playing blues songs through the public address system of his Mister Softee ice cream van. He only released one album while he was alive. Apparently joined the ministry and gave up the blues. Great voice and guitar playing, if you like the Piedmont style.

You younger folks missed out on the "Generic" brand craze back in the 80's. Even consumed me some "Generic" beer back then (yuk!).

Popa Chubby - Live Big Bad And Beautiful
The quality and spaciousness of this recording is stellar! His vocals are somewhat garbled, but it sounds like that may be due to him eating the mic.
I've seen the big man a few times and he is the real deal for blues/bluesy-rock.

The first 8 tracks recorded 1966 have JLH backed by Muddy Waters' band.
The last 5 recorded 1972 include John's son on vocals as well. These tracks are the gut-punch rockin'est I've ever heard from John Lee. This band just blisters!
And it's clear the prisoners are having a whaling good time by their vocal support and reactions.

(https://soundliaison.com/cdn/shop/files/carmen-gomes-inc-little-queen-of-spades.jpg?v=1698575023&width=360) https://soundliaison.com/ (https://soundliaison.com/)With 'Stones in My Passway' Carmen Gomes Inc. embarks on a remarkable journey through the corridors of time. Paying homage to the legendary blues musician, composer, and founding father of the fatal 27 Club, Robert Johnson, their album transcends the boundaries of traditional recordings, offering a mesmerizing sonic road movie experience.
'Stones in My Passway' effortlessly transports you, each track being a gateway, to a world where time and space intertwine with the rich tapestry of Johnson's life.
Imagine Robert Johnson walking alone late at night in the 1930s United States of America, en route to his sad demise in Greenwood, Mississippi. As he walks, he reflects upon his life, accompanied by the sounds of the night and the echoes of his memories.
The small innovative soundscape vignettes, encompassing each song, weave a cinematic narrative to the unique road movie concept, further enhancing the emotional connection and depth of the musical experience.
It's an immersive and evocative concept album showcasing the power of artistic vision and technical innovation, and a deep reverence for the timeless beauty of Robert Johnson's music.

We saw Kingfish on Sunday night in St Louis, MO USA.
I've been a fan since I saw a YouTube clip prior to his first album (playing "Hey Joe").
Seeing him live was a whole new experience. His guitar tone, singing voice, stage presence (an extended stroll through the auditorium playing a 15 minute solo), and ability to string his solos within a song to a rousing finish made for a great evening.
I've seen a lot of blues/rock guitarists over my 67 years, and had the pleasure of digging Stevie Ray Vaughan when he was playing in Austin nightclubs in the late '70s, as well as Albert King, BB, Albert Collins, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy...on and on. Kingfish is going to be a force to be reckoned with.
If you can see him live, don't miss him. It's an experience beyond his records.
