Territory (1998) more music like this

by Alvin Youngblood Hart

Hart is so determined to display his stylistic dexterity that he winds up wandering all over the map: country swing, blues, reggae, gutbucket rock. Each selection is worthy, although a more consistent thematic thread would make the album more listenable. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide

Big Mama's Door

Big Mama's Door (1996) more music like this

by Alvin Youngblood Hart

The debut recording of 33-year-old Hart is extraordinarily simple and simply extraordinary. Except for three cuts on which he's joined by Taj Mahal, Big Mama's Door is just Hart on acoustic guitar and vocals, and he's not doing anything fancy -- just playing prewar-style blues, mostly in a percussive Delta manner, recorded live to two-track. Yet ...

Start With the Soul

Start With the Soul (2000) more music like this

by Alvin Youngblood Hart

Guitarist Alvin Youngblood Hart dedicates his third release Start With the Soul to, among others, the late Thin Lizzy leader Phil Lynott. This isn't just lip service, as you can immediately hear when the opening roar of "Fightin' Hard" comes blaring through. Hart doesn't go out of his way to appeal only to blues followers. He has the natural ...

Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson

Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Not the first compilation of bluesmen (and one woman) interpreting the limited but radically influential work of Robert Johnson, and almost certainly not the last, this 2001 entry is one of the more substantial efforts in the lineage. Instead of refashioning these classics in unique arrangements, the compilers have stripped the artists and songs ...

Paint It Blue: Songs of the Rolling Stones

Paint It Blue: Songs of the Rolling Stones (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

The idea behind Paint It Blue: Songs of the Rolling Stones is such a simple, appealing one that it's a wonder that the record wasn't made before 1997. The Stones never made any secret of their debt to the blues, so it makes sense that their songs would sound good when performed by blues and R&B artists. That's the idea behind Paint It Blue -- ...

Down in the Alley

Down in the Alley (2002) more music like this

by Alvin Youngblood Hart

Hart does a 180 after the husky, power trio/space/R&B/rock of 2000's Start With the Soul by spinning out a dozen blues covers in a solo acoustic setting. On his fourth album (for his fourth label), the contemporary bluesman sounds inspired and refreshed as he accompanies himself on acoustic six-string guitar, banjo, and mandolin. The production is ...

Motivational Speaker

Motivational Speaker (2005) more music like this

by Alvin Youngblood Hart

Bluesman Alvin Youngblood Hart's Motivational Speaker is his first outing since Down in the Alley, his stellar, acoustic collection of covers from 2002. Cut in Memphis with a very electric trio that includes Gary Rasmussen (former Rationals and Sonic's Rendezvous bassist) and drummer Ed Michaels, the album is a hard-edged, wooly, dirt-under-the ...

Hound Dog Taylor: A Tribute

Hound Dog Taylor: A Tribute (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

In many respects, you could call Hound Dog Taylor a cult artist. Respected by bluesmen and critics alike, he built a small, devoted following across America simply by constently touring. There were no hits and very few covers of hs songs, but his rowdy concerts and incendiary records on Alligator convinced any who heard him. In the process, he put ...

There is material from artists like R.L. Burnside, Keb' Mo', Rory Block, Tab Benoit, Alvin Youngblood Hart, and more, painting a rich and diverse portrait of the ...

Blue Haze: Songs of Jimi Hendrix (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

Blue Haze: Songs of Jimi Hendrix is a tribute that coincides with the 30th anniversary of the guitarist's death. Featuring 14 tracks from old friends like Eric Burdon (on two tracks and author of the liner notes) and Buddy Miles along with a host of admirers, this combination of talent manifests itself as a whole, instead of sounding completely ...
