Recorded live on March 22 and 23, 1993, at Buddy Guy's Legends in Chicago, \"Last Time Around - Live At Legends\" documents Buddy Guy on his home turf, in the very club that bears his name. There is no substitute for the electricity of a room full of people who came to hear the blues told plain, and that atmosphere runs through every groove here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this set so special is the reunion at its heart. Buddy Guy and Junior Wells were one of the most storied partnerships the Chicago blues ever produced, and here they share the stage once more, Guy on acoustic guitar and vocals, Wells adding his unmistakable harmonica and voice. The two also share production credit, shaping the sound of these performances from the inside out, which lends the whole record an intimacy that feels less like a concert document and more like an invitation into their world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe track listing reads like a walk through the deep well of the blues these two men helped define. Side A opens with \"Seeds Of Reed\" before moving through \"That's All Right,\" the medley of \"She's All Right \/ Still A Fool,\" the Muddy Waters staple \"Hoochie Coochie Man,\" and a reading of \"What I'd Say (It's All Right).\" It is a first half that balances the traditional with the personal, the familiar with the surprising.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B keeps the momentum going with \"Key To The Highway\" and \"I've Been There,\" then leans into the pairings that live music does so well: \"Feelin' Good \/ What I'd Say\" and \"Oh Baby \/ You Better Watch Yourself.\" The set closes with \"Hoodoo Man Blues,\" a fitting nod that ties this performance back to the roots Guy and Wells shared for decades. Hearing these songs in a live setting, with the acoustic guitar and harmonica trading space, gives them a warmth that studio takes rarely reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record was engineered by Timothy Powell, edited by Chaz Harper, mixed by Tim Donovan, and mastered by Tom Coyne, with photography by Paul Natkin and art direction and design by Nick Gamma. That care behind the scenes ensures the room, the players, and the moment all come through with clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited to just 1000 copies, this is a pressing made for listeners who want the real thing: two masters of the form, playing live in the house that Buddy built.

Pressed here on 180 gram audiophile vinyl, this collection puts Guy's fierce electric guitar front and center, spanning lead and rhythm work that snaps with the kind of intensity that made him a legend. This edition is a reissue of the original release, giving collectors a chance to revisit one of the great partnerships in the genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the opening bars of \"A Man Of Many Words,\" you get a sense of the caliber of talent assembled here. That track alone brings together Carl Radle on bass, Jim Gordon on drums, and none other than Dr. John on piano, laying down a foundation that lets Guy's guitar cut loose. It is a bold, swaggering way to begin, and it sets the tone for a session that never stops moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the record is the chemistry between Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, whose harmonica and vocals thread through these sides with easy authority. Tracks like \"Messin' With The Kid\" and \"My Baby Left Me (She Left Me A Mule To Ride)\" thrive on that call and response energy, while \"Come On In This House - Have Mercy Baby\" and the shuffling \"T - Bone Shuffle\" show the band stretching out. A.C. Reed adds tenor saxophone muscle, and Michael Utley colors the arrangements with organ and piano, rounding out a sound that feels both loose and locked in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe production pedigree here is remarkable. Ahmet Ertegun, Eric Clapton, and Tom Dowd share producer credits, with Ron Albert handling the recording, and Clapton himself steps in on rhythm guitar and bottleneck slide guitar. That extra layer of guitar work deepens the texture without ever crowding Guy, a testament to the taste and restraint on display throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo cuts, \"This Old Fool\" and \"Honeydripper,\" come from a different session and bring a fresh cast into the mix. Here J. Geils lends rhythm guitar, Magic Dick blows harmonica, and Seth Justman sits at the piano, with Daniel Klein on bass and Stephen Bladd on drums. Produced by Michael Cuscuna and recorded by Richard Oulleppe, these tracks add welcome variety, their tighter, punchier feel offering a nice contrast to the rest of the program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRounding out the set are the slow burn of \"A Poor Man's Plea,\" the wry \"I Don't Know,\" and the rolling \"Bad Bad Whiskey,\" each one a reminder of how deep this well runs. With Juke Joint Jimmy even lending foot tapping accompaniment, \"Play The Blues\" is a warm, spirited document of Buddy Guy in commanding form, essential listening for any serious blues collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

The pairing captures the range that has always lived at the heart of the genre, from quiet yearning to swaggering confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second half continues with \"I Just Keep Loving Her,\" a song whose title says everything about the persistence of the blues heart, and \"Memphis Slim U.S.A.,\" a nod to one of the towering figures of piano blues and the traditions that shaped the label's early years. The anthology closes with \"Ashes In My Ashtray,\" a fittingly moody finish that lingers long after the needle lifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes a compilation like this rewarding is the way it functions as both an entry point and a keepsake. Newcomers get a curated tour through the sounds that made Delmark a cornerstone of the blues, while longtime listeners can appreciate the care taken to represent the label's breadth across two well sequenced sides. Every track here earns its place, and the flow from song to song rewards listening all the way through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors of Chicago blues and the labels that carried it forward, this 70th anniversary release is a meaningful addition to any shelf. It honors a legacy built on artistry, endurance, and a genuine love of the music, and it offers ten performances that together tell the story of a label that has spent seventy years keeping the blues alive on wax. Drop it on the turntable and let the history play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

From the opening bars of \"Hoogie Boogie\" to the closing stomp of \"Too Much Boogie,\" this is a set that lives and breathes a single idea and never grows tired of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the collection are tracks drawn from the 1949 Besman sessions, the recordings that helped establish Hooker as one of the most distinctive voices in postwar blues. This was the sound of a man alone with his guitar and his foot, tapping out a beat that owed as much to Mississippi juke joints as it did to the Detroit that had become his home. Hear it in \"Boogie Chillen,\" and again in the reworked \"Boogie Chillen #2,\" where the same primal groove gets turned over and examined from a fresh angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe track listing reads like a survey of the boogie in all its guises. \"House Rent Boogie\" carries the weight of hard times, \"Rock House Boogie\" and \"21 Boogie\" push the tempo, and \"Hastings Street Boogie\" plants Hooker squarely on the Detroit thoroughfare that gave so much early rhythm and blues its address. Alongside them sit the looser, rowdier moments like \"Shake Holler And Run\" and \"Jump Me (One More Time),\" proof that the boogie could be a party as easily as it could be a lament.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare has gone into the presentation of this 2014 issue. Nick Robbins handled the mastering, bringing clarity to recordings that have lost none of their raw immediacy over the decades. Niall McCormack contributed the cover and design, while Herb Fenstein supplied the sleeve notes that place these performances in their proper context. The runouts are etched, a small detail that collectors will appreciate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rights reflect the collaborative nature of the reissue. Most of the material carries a 2014 Ace Records Ltd copyright, with tracks A5, B1, B6, and B7, namely \"Gotta Boogie,\" \"Jump Me (One More Time),\" \"Shake Holler And Run,\" and \"Too Much Boogie,\" licensed from P-Vine, Inc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone drawn to the foundational sound of the blues, or simply curious about how one man built a career on a rhythm so deceptively simple, this is an essential document.

Others, like this one, feel like they were pulled from the dust of a forgotten Detroit studio and handed to you still humming. \"My All New Life Story\" gathers the rare 1970s recordings of Bobo Jenkins, a Detroit blues figure whose name never traveled far beyond his own city, but whose music carries the unmistakable snap of a man who wrote and lived every word.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything here was cut inside Jenkins' own Big Star Records Recording Studios, and you can hear it. The hype sticker promises \"wild electric guitar, wah-wah bass, ringing phones and all,\" and that last detail tells you exactly what kind of listen this is. These are not scrubbed, sanitized studio takes. They are raw, homespun, and alive with the accidents of the room. The bass slinks around under a coat of wah-wah, the guitar spikes and stings, and the whole thing feels like you have been let into a session that nobody expected to become a collector's item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBobo Jenkins wrote every song on the record, and that authorship gives the set its backbone. Side A opens with the rolling \"New 44 Blues\" and moves through the swagger of \"I Love That Woman,\" the traditional-rooted \"Shake Em On Down,\" and the heartache of \"Here I Am A Fool In Love Again.\" Then comes \"Watergate Blues,\" a reminder that Jenkins kept one eye on the world outside the studio while pouring the rest of himself into the twelve-bar tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B stays just as personal. \"If You Were The Only Woman\" and \"Trying To Get You Off My Mind\" work the eternal territory of love and its aftermath, while \"Share Cropper Blues\" and \"24 Years\" reach back into harder ground, the stuff of memory and labor and long stretches of time. It is a record that swings between the intimate and the historical without ever losing its rough, human edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reissue was handled with real care. Warren Defever cut the lacquer and mastered the audio, and Fred Reif contributed the liner notes that set Jenkins' story in context for listeners meeting him for the first time.

Across ten tracks, Harper handles vocals, guitar, and slide guitar, and takes a producer credit as well, stamping his fingerprints on every corner of the album. This is music made to be heard loud, with the needle carving out heavy, electrified tones that reward a good set of speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of this collaboration is the pairing of Harper with harmonica legend Charlie Musselwhite, whose playing threads through the album with authority and soul. From the opening charge of \"Don't Look Twice\" to the swaggering \"I'm In I'm Out And I'm Gone,\" the interplay between Harper's slide and Musselwhite's harp gives the record its unmistakable voice.

On the second side, \"The Way Mother Did,\" \"Louise McGhee,\" \"Pony Blues,\" and \"Levee Camp Moan\" round out a program that swings between raw testimony and deep, aching reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHouse wrote the vast majority of what you hear, credited across the album from the title track through the bulk of both sides, with \"The Way Mother Did\" bearing his arrangement.

Produced by Dan Auerbach with Dick Waterman serving as executive producer, the release brings House's 1964 performance into sharp focus.

Recorded at an open air concert in Szeged, Hungary on the 6th of June 1985, this album finds John Mayall \u0026amp; The Bluesbreakers bringing the deep American blues tradition to an audience on the other side of a political divide. The setting alone gives the music a sense of occasion, and you can feel the band rising to meet it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the mid 1980s Mayall had assembled a formidable version of the Bluesbreakers, and the lineup here is a big part of the appeal. Behind Mayall's vocals, guitar, harmonica, and organ sits a limber rhythm section of Bobby Haynes on bass and Joe Yuele on drums. Out front stand two lead guitarists, Coco Montoya and Walter Trout, both of whom would go on to significant careers of their own. Having two players of that caliber trading and stacking solos gives these performances a real edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set opens with \"Somebody's Acting Like A Child\" and \"Rolling With The Blues,\" an inviting pair that lays down the groove and lets the band settle into the open air. \"The Laws Must Change\" carries Mayall's long standing sense of purpose, while a reading of Mose Allison's \"Parchman Farm\" closes the first side with tight, propulsive energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide two leans into the material that made the Bluesbreakers legendary. \"Have You Heard\" stretches out with slow burning intensity, giving the twin guitars and Mayall's organ plenty of room to breathe. It is the kind of extended blues meditation that live recording was made for, and the concert atmosphere only heightens it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album then builds toward its finale with \"Fly Tomorrow\" before landing on \"Steppin' Out,\" the instrumental showpiece that has anchored the Bluesbreakers songbook for decades. In this setting it becomes a proper guitar workout, with Montoya and Trout pushing each other over Haynes and Yuele's steady swing. As a closing statement, it sends the audience home with the sound of the blues at full volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors, \"Behind The Iron Curtain\" is both a fine live document and a snapshot of a particular moment: John Mayall, ever the bandleader and talent scout, arranging and producing a set built to spotlight the players around him. It captures a great band on a memorable night in Szeged, and it belongs on the shelf of anyone who loves the enduring story of British blues carried out into the wider world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

Recorded in Chicago on September 1, 1969, the album catches Montgomery at the keyboard, singing and playing with the kind of lived-in authority that only comes from a lifetime spent at the piano bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A opens with \"No Special Rider\" and moves through \"Prisoner Bound Blues,\" \"You Gotta See Your Mama Every Night,\" and \"Cow Cow Blues,\" a sequence that shows off Montgomery's easy way with tempo and touch. \"Gin House Blues\" and \"New Vicksburg Blues\" round out the first side, the latter carrying the geographic memory of the Mississippi world that shaped his sound.

Jeanne Carroll adds vocals, and Michael A. Stewart brings steel guitar into the mix, giving certain moments an extra layer of color against the piano.

This record captures that resurgence in full, a set of tough, soulful blues and roadhouse rock that plays to every strength Mack built over decades of working the circuit. From the opening swagger of \"Hound Dog Man\" to the closing wink of \"Oreo Cookie Blues,\" it is the sound of a veteran playing like he has something to prove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of what makes this album so magnetic is the company Mack keeps. Sharing electric guitar duties throughout is Stevie Ray Vaughan, who also sits in the producer's chair alongside Mack himself. The pairing of these two, both devoted to tone, feel, and the raw electricity of the instrument, gives the whole record a live-wire tension. You can hear it charging through the title track \"Strike Like Lightning,\" and it lingers across every side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rhythm section keeps things anchored and driving. Tim Drummond lays down electric bass across the record, while drum duties are split between Dennis O'Neal and Gene Lawson, the latter stepping in for \"Long Way From Memphis\" and the title cut. Bill McIntosh adds further electric guitar, and Stan Szelest colors the arrangements with keyboards, filling out ballads like \"Falling Back In Love With You\" and giving grit to burners like \"Double Whammy\" and \"Satisfy Susie.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the boards, the project carried real blues pedigree, with Bruce Iglauer and Mindy Giles serving as executive producers. The result runs the full emotional gamut, from the tender pull of \"If You Have To Know\" to the defiant kick of \"Stop\" and \"You Ain't Got Me.\" It is a record that knows when to snarl and when to smolder, and it rewards front-to-back listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pressing follows in the footsteps of the 2018 Italian reissue that appeared as part of the Blues In Vinile series. It uses a copy of that same cover, designed by Xeno, with photography by Lone Star Silver. Note that this version does not include the eight-page booklet that accompanied that earlier reissue; instead it arrives in a basic sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat it does share with its predecessor is the pressing quality that matters most to collectors, a substantial 180gm MPO pressing built for serious playback. For fans of Lonnie Mack, of Stevie Ray Vaughan, or of the electric blues tradition these players carried forward, this is a rewarding addition to the shelf and a record made to be played loud and played often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

Issued on Delmark Records out of 4121 N. Rockwell in Chicago, this collection draws together two distinct dates from the early 1950s, each capturing Nighthawk at the height of his expressive powers on both vocals and guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe music here comes from two sessions separated by a little over a year. The first, cut on July 12, 1951, yielded \"Crying Won't Help You,\" \"Take It Easy Baby,\" \"Nighthawk Boogie,\" \"Kansas City,\" and \"Feel So Bad.\" The second, recorded October 25, 1952, produced \"Seventy-Four,\" \"Maggie Campbell,\" \"The Moon Is Rising,\" \"You Missed A Good Man,\" \"Bricks In My Pillow,\" \"U \/ S Boogie,\" and a further take of \"Maggie Campbell.\" Together they trace a working blues artist moving through slow burners, rolling boogies, and standards reshaped in his own image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNighthawk kept fine company across these dates. The 1951 sides feature Ransom Knowling on bass and Armand \"Jump\" Jackson, listed as the probable drummer, with piano handled by either Roosevelt Sykes or Bob Call. The 1952 sessions bring Bob Call firmly to the piano bench, backed by an unidentified drummer, with a second, uncredited guitarist joining on \"Maggie Campbell\" and \"U \/ S Boogie.\" The interplay of slide, piano, and rhythm gives the whole set a loose, live-in-the-room feeling that reflects the era's studio approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original productions were supervised by Leonard Allen and Lewis Simpkins, with Bill Putnam behind the recording desk, names that carry real weight in the story of postwar Chicago blues. Most of the material is credited to Robert McCollum, the name behind the Nighthawk moniker, underscoring how personal this repertoire was to the artist. Robert G. Koester served as album producer for the Delmark reissue, with the collection compiled by Jim O'Neal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe package itself was assembled with the same care as the music. Jim O'Neal contributed the sleeve notes, offering context for these historic sessions, while Frank Scott handled the cover and photography and Bob McCamant designed the album. The metal work and mastering were done by John Bittner, ensuring the transfer honors the source. This edition carries different labels and a different Delmark address than the earlier related pressing, a detail collectors will note when tracing the release history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone drawn to the roots of electric slide blues, this is a foundational document, a chance to hear Robert Nighthawk in his prime alongside players who helped define the Chicago sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

Robinson brings a rare combination of gifts to the table here, singing with a warm, conversational ease while his guitar work moves with the fluid, jazz informed phrasing that earned him admirers well beyond the blues world. Across eleven tracks, he balances the raw and the refined, letting his musicianship breathe without ever losing the emotional pull at the heart of the songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title cut opens the album and remains its signature, a slow burning meditation that Robinson delivers with aching restraint. From there the first side gathers momentum through \"The Getaway\" and a spirited reading of \"Directly From My Heart To You,\" before settling into the loose swing of \"Going To Chicago.\" \"You Say You Are Leaving\" and \"Checking On My Woman\" round out the A side, each one showcasing Robinson's knack for wringing feeling out of a familiar blues framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the record over and the depth of the program becomes clear. \"You Don't Know What Love Is\" leans into ballad territory, while \"I've Changed\" and \"Country Girl\" keep the mood shifting and alive. The set closes with the urgent \"Gotta Wake Up\" and a definitive take on \"Texas Flood,\" a performance that has since become inseparable from Robinson's legacy and a touchstone for guitarists who followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe playing throughout is anchored by a superb Chicago cast. Cornelius Boyson lays down the bass alongside Tony Gooden on drums, with Bill Held's keyboards filling out the harmonic foundation. Mighty Joe Young lends his rhythm guitar to the proceedings, giving Robinson room to stretch out. A tight horn section brings extra color and lift, featuring David Baldwin on tenor saxophone, who also arranged the horns, Bill McFarland on trombone, and the twin trumpets of Elmer Brown and Norval Don Hodges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the boards, the album pairs Fenton Robinson himself with Bruce Iglauer as co producers, with Stu Black handling the engineering. Jim O'Neal contributes the liner notes, and the package is dressed with cover design by Ross \u0026amp; Harvey Inc., cover photography by Dan Coha, and liner photography by Jan Loveland.

Released in 2003 on Gray Cat Records, this is a jazz record in the truest sense, a program of standards delivered with restraint, warmth, and an evident love for the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross four sides, Scaggs works his way through a collection of ballads and torch songs that reward patience and close listening. The album opens gently with \"What's New?\" and \"Never Let Me Go,\" setting a mood of late night reflection that carries through \"How Long Has This Been Going On?\" and into the second side. There you will find \"Sophisticated Lady,\" the title track \"But Beautiful,\" and a tender reading of \"Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back half deepens the spell. Side C pairs \"Easy Living\" with \"I Should Care,\" while the closing side offers \"You Don't Know What Love Is\" and \"For All We Know,\" two songs that leave the listener suspended in the album's hushed, unhurried atmosphere. It is a sequence built for the format, meant to be played on vinyl with the lights low and no reason to rush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe band Scaggs assembled here is small and sympathetic, a group that understands the value of space. Paul Nagel handles piano duties and also arranged the sessions, giving the record its harmonic frame and its gentle sense of forward motion. John Shifflett on bass and Jason Lewis on drums provide a supple, understated rhythmic foundation, while Eric Crystal's saxophone adds color and a vocal quality that answers and shadows Scaggs throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe care extended to the sound itself. Scaggs produced the album, and the sessions passed through the hands of a deep engineering team including Chris Tabarez, Jeff Cressman, Michael Rodriguez, and Steve MacMillan. Joel Moss handled the mix, and the record was mastered by the legendary Bernie Grundman, whose name on a jazz pressing is a mark of fidelity and analog warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors drawn to the standards tradition and to artists who cross genres with genuine feeling, \"But Beautiful\" is a rewarding find. It captures a familiar voice in an unfamiliar setting, treating each song with tenderness and letting the arrangements breathe. This is Boz Scaggs as interpreter rather than showman, and the result is an album that sits comfortably alongside the classic vocal jazz records that inspired it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

From the opening bars of the title track, \"Move It On Over,\" the album announces its intentions: this is music built for stomping, for sweat, for the kind of night that refuses to end quietly. Thorogood pulls double duty here as guitarist, vocalist, and producer, driving the whole affair with a swagger that never lets up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the sound lives in the interplay of a lean, hungry band. Bill Blough anchors the low end on bass while Jeff Simon keeps the pulse relentless on drums, giving Thorogood's guitar room to snarl and slide. Adding color to the rhythm, Uncle Meat Pennington shakes loose on tambourine and maracas, a percussive spice that lends tracks like \"New Hawaiian Boogie\" and \"So Much Trouble\" their loose, live-in-the-room feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe track selection reads like a love letter to the blues canon filtered through Thorogood's unmistakable grit. \"Who Do You Love?\" struts with menace, \"The Sky Is Crying\" aches with slow-burn tension, and \"Cocaine Blues\" leans into its outlaw storytelling. Side B keeps the fire burning through \"That Same Thing,\" \"I'm Just Your Good Thing,\" and \"Baby, Please Set A Date,\" each one carrying that gloriously unpolished energy that made Thorogood a fixture of barroom stages the world over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the boards, the record benefits from a trio of producers. Thorogood himself shared production duties with Ken Irwin and John Nagy, the latter also handling engineering and the mix. That hands-on approach preserves the immediacy of the performances, letting the distortion breathe and the vocals bite without ever sounding overworked. The result is a document of a band caught in full, unguarded flight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe physical package carries its own charm as well. Susan Marsh's design frames the music with care, while David Gahr's photography captures the personalities behind the noise.

It is a cornerstone of the Chicago West Side sound, and it plays like a man with everything to prove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the album is Magic Sam himself on vocals and guitar, but he does not carry it alone. Mighty Joe Young adds a second guitar throughout, and Stockholm Slim's piano threads through the sessions with a rolling, barrelhouse feel.

The lacquers were cut by two hands, with Brian Gardner cutting the Side A material and John Bittner cutting Side B, and the runouts are etched throughout, save for the stamped Wakefield \"tulip\" sign.

From the moment the title track opens the A side, you are pulled into Hooker's world, a place where spare arrangements leave nothing to hide behind and every note carries weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection moves through the full range of Hooker's expression. His own compositions dominate the set, from the brooding \"Graveyard Blues\" and the wry storytelling of \"Jackson, Tennessee\" to the plainspoken defiance of \"You Live Your Life And I'll Live Mine.\" The B side keeps that momentum, running through Hooker originals like \"How Can You Do It?,\" the mournful \"I Rolled And Turned And Cried The Whole Night Long,\" and \"Blues For My Baby,\" each one built on his unmistakable groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWoven among his own songs are readings of material by some of the greatest names the blues has known. Big Joe Williams's \"Baby Please Don't Go\" gets the Hooker treatment on the A side, while Chester Burnett, better known as Howlin' Wolf, is honored twice through \"Smokestack Lightnin'\" and \"Natchez Fire.\" Big Bill Broonzy's \"Key To The Highway\" adds another classic to the B side, a testament to Hooker's place within a broader lineage of American music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pressing arrives as part of the celebrated Bluesville \/ Acoustic Sounds Series, produced by Bill Grauer. The all-analog mastering was handled by Matthew Lutthans, with lacquers cut directly from the original master tapes, preserving the immediacy and warmth of Hooker's performances.

The record is housed in a sturdy tip-on jacket and comes complete with the series' distinctive blue obi strip.

Best known as a towering figure of folk revival, here she leans fully into the blues, backed by a band of seasoned jazz players who knew how to swing behind a singer. The result, \"Odetta And The Blues,\" finds that unmistakable contralto set against horns, piano, and a rhythm section, moving from raw lament to easy, rolling groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe material spans a rich cross section of blues and traditional song.

Orrin Keepnews produced the session, with Ray Fowler engineering the recording and Ed Michel contributing the original liner notes.

It includes an obi strip and a foil stamped jacket, along with an exclusive listening notes booklet written by Susannah Young that adds context and depth to the session.

Side two moves from \"If I Don't Be There By Morning\" into the smoky testimony of \"Worried Life Blues,\" pairs the reflective \"All Our Past Times\" with a charged reading of \"After Midnight,\" and never lets the momentum flag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back half of the record leans harder into the blues that always sat at the center of Clapton's playing. \"Double Trouble\" and \"Blues Power\" bookend the sprightly \"Setting Me Up,\" while the final side delivers \"Rambling On My Mind,\" the crowd favorite \"Cocaine,\" and a rousing \"Further On Up The Road\" to close things out. Across all four sides, the guitar work is generous and the singing unguarded, the mark of a performer comfortable in front of an audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuch of the fire here comes from the band around Clapton. Albert Lee is a standout presence, contributing guitar, vocals, and keyboards, while Chris Stainton adds further keyboard color. Dave Markee holds down the bass and Henry Spinetti drives the rhythm from the drum kit, together giving Clapton the steady foundation he needs to reach for those long, singing solos. It is a lineup built for the stage, tight enough to lock in and loose enough to let the songs stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the boards, Jon Astley served as producer and engineer, sharing mixing duties with Phil Chapman, and the resulting sound has the presence and clarity that a live document demands. The package itself is a piece of design worth admiring, with cover art and art direction by David Stewart, illustration by Ken Konno, and photography from both Dave Brown and Koichiro Hiki, a collaboration that dresses the music in imagery as considered as the performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollectors should note that this is a specific pressing, identifiable by the \"56\" marking on the labels and the \"CP\" etched into the runouts. For anyone drawn to Clapton on stage, doing what he does best in real time, this is an essential entry in the catalog and a rewarding listen from first groove to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePressing Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003eA1.

This is Hammond organ music built for late nights and low lights, an album that leans hard into the pocket while leaving plenty of room for the blues to breathe. From the opening groove, McGriff makes clear that this is a record about feel, about the slow burn and the sudden lift, rather than about showing off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A-side sets the tone with \"Discotheque U.S.A.\" and \"Cash Box,\" two McGriff originals that dance between dancefloor energy and after-hours cool. Then come the twin heart pieces of the set, \"Blues For Joe\" and the title track \"Blues For Mr. Jimmy,\" both written by McGriff himself. These are the moments where the organ speaks plainest, drawing out long, aching lines over a steady, unhurried pulse. \"The Dog (You Dog)\" closes the side with a strut, all attitude and grin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlip to the B-side and the party keeps rolling. \"Bump De Bump,\" another McGriff original, brings a bouncing, hip-shaking figure that shows off his knack for writing melodies that stick. \"The Party's Over\" gives the record its moment of tenderness, a change of pace that lets McGriff show his gift for restraint and phrasing. The organ becomes a singing voice here, patient and warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record then digs back into the groove with \"Turn Blue\" and \"Sho' Nuff,\" two more McGriff compositions that round out the program with confidence and swing. Nearly the entire tracklist comes from McGriff's own pen, a reminder that he was not only a bandleader and a stylist but a writer with a strong sense of how to shape a mood across a full album side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRick Willard supplies the liner notes, framing the music and offering context for listeners settling in with the sleeve in hand.

Auerbach has a gift for framing a singer without crowding them, letting the room breathe and the voice sit front and center, and that instinct suits Albino's material perfectly.

Across ten tracks, the Detroit bluesman leans into the deep, hypnotic groove that made his name, letting the boogie stretch out and the slower numbers breathe.

The side closes with \"Please Don't Go\" and \"I Just Don't Know,\" two performances that trade in the ache and uncertainty at the heart of the blues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlip to the B side and the mood settles into something even more unhurried. \"Slow And Easy\" lives up to its name, and \"Two White Horses\" carries the weight of old blues imagery that generations of players have returned to again and again. \"Feel So Bad\" digs into pure lament before \"Grinder Man\" brings the record home with a title steeped in the working, grinding rhythm that Hooker made his signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe production here comes courtesy of Henry Stone, a figure whose ear for feel and groove suits Hooker's approach beautifully. Ron Albert handled the engineering, capturing the raw, close presence that gives these performances their intimacy. The result is a session that never overreaches, trusting the strength of the voice and the guitar to carry the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust as much thought went into how the record presents itself.

(21st Century Juke Joint Blues From Easy Eye Sound)\" wears its purpose right in the title. This is a compilation that gathers the raw, electrified spirit of the juke joint and drags it forward into the present century, courtesy of the Easy Eye Sound stable. It plays like a night spent leaning against the wall of a smoky room where the blues never went anywhere; it just got louder, dirtier, and more alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set opens with \"Coal Black Mattie\" and never really lets up, moving through the title track \"Tell Everybody\" and into the brooding \"Tall Shadow\" before \"Every Chance I Get (I Want You In The Flesh)\" lays its cards on the table. There is grit and swagger throughout the A side, and it closes out with the pleading pulse of \"Anything You Need.\" This is music built for volume, best played when the room is warm and the company is willing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlip it over and the B side digs into deeper, stranger territory. \"Willow Witchin'\" and \"No Lovin'\" keep the hips moving, while \"Daughter Of Zion\" reaches toward something more spiritual. \"Buffalo Road\" and the closing \"Collinwood Fire\" round out a collection that understands the blues as a living tradition, one still being written and rewritten by artists who feel it in their hands and their throats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo tracks stand apart in their sound design and reward close listening. \"Catfish Blues\" on the A side and \"Don't Let The Devil Ride\" on the B side are both presented in Mono, a deliberate choice that pulls those performances tight and close, giving them the immediate, in the room presence of an old field recording. Everything else spreads out in Stereo, so the record breathes between the intimate and the expansive as it moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the boards sits Dan Auerbach, who produced the collection and shares mixing duties with Allen Parker. That team gives the whole affair its characteristic Easy Eye fingerprint: fat, tactile, and unafraid of a little dirt in the corners.

It carries the confident, road-worn assurance of an artist with nothing left to prove and plenty left to say.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record opens with \"Hard Going Up,\" a title that sets a tone of struggle and momentum, before easing into the wry, knowing swing of \"A Bigger Slice Of Pie.\" From there the mood turns reflective with \"Falling,\" a track that lets the quieter, more introspective side of Mayall's writing breathe. \"Take Me Home Tonight\" and \"Sweet Honey Bee\" round out the first side, closing the A-side on a warm, inviting note that rewards a full front-to-back listen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlip to the B-side and the album stretches out further. \"Stars In The Night\" carries a nocturnal, atmospheric pull, while \"Consideration\" leans into the thoughtful lyricism that always marked Mayall's best work. \"Gypsy Lady\" adds a touch of wandering romance before the set closes with \"Wild New Lover,\" a spirited finish that sends the listener off on a charged, energetic high. Across nine tracks, the sequencing moves with purpose, balancing grit and tenderness in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a record for anyone who wants to hear Mayall beyond the celebrated 1960s recordings that first made his name. The late-seventies setting gives the material a distinctive flavor, blending his lifelong blues foundation with the looser, more expansive feel of the era. It is a document of an artist adapting, absorbing, and continuing to carve his own path well past the years most associated with his legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIssued by DJM Records out of 119 West 57th Street, New York, NY 10019, this pressing bears the 1979 Dick James Music Inc. imprint.

Jimmy Paxson lays down drums and percussion, Jesse Ingalls covers electric and upright bass, and Jason Mozersky handles lead guitar, all three doubling as producers alongside Sheldon Gomberg and Ethan Allen.

Released in 2022 by John Mayall under exclusive license to Forty Below Records, this is the sound of an artist who helped shape British blues returning to the studio with undimmed appetite. From the opening statement of \"Hungry And Ready,\" the title feels less like a boast and more like a simple description of the man behind the microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMayall does the heavy lifting here in the way only he can, handling vocals while moving between an array of keyboards that give the record its warmth and depth. He plays Hammond B3 organ, piano, and Wurlitzer electric piano, and he still reaches for the harmonica when a song calls for that voice. That range means tracks like \"Can't Take No More\" and \"Got To Find A Better Way\" never sit still; there is always another texture waiting just underneath the groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rhythm section keeps everything grounded and swinging. Greg Rzab lays down the bass guitar while Jay Davenport drives the beat on drums, and together they give Mayall the kind of steady, unfussy foundation the blues demands. Listen to \"Driving Wheel,\" where Eric Corne steps in on rhythm guitar, and you can hear how much the band leans on that partnership to carry the momentum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGuitar duties are shared with real character across the album. Carolyn Wonderland handles rhythm guitar on a good share of the set, including \"Hungry And Ready,\" \"I'm As Good As Gone,\" \"One Special Lady,\" \"A Quitter Never Wins,\" and \"Deep Blue Sea,\" and she takes the lead on the closing title track, \"The Sun Is Shining Down.\" Billy Watts adds his rhythm playing to \"Can't Take No More\" and \"One Special Lady,\" giving those cuts an extra layer of grit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA horn section rounds out the palette and lifts the whole affair toward something celebratory. Ron Dziubla on saxophone, Rich Rosenberg on trombone, and Mark Pender on trumpet bring punch and color, the kind of brass that turns a strong blues number into a full-bodied statement. On tracks like \"Chills And Thrills,\" those horns feel essential rather than decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe record was engineered, mixed, and produced by Eric Corne, who also co-produced alongside Mayall himself, with Michael Dumas and Thomas Ross Johansen serving as second engineers.
