Bad News Is Coming

Bad News Is Coming (1973) more music like this

by Luther Allison

The very thing that made Luther Allison noteworthy became an albatross around his neck. Years after his initial run of records in the '70s, he was known for the same thing he was at the time -- he was the only blues artist on Gordy, or any Motown affiliated label. This was true and novel, but many focused on the novelty, not the truth, ignoring ...

Blue Streak

Blue Streak (1995) more music like this

by Luther Allison

A follow-up to his previous Soul Fixin' Man (which uses the same personnel and may be from the same sessions), bluesman guitarist/singer Luther Allison is in top form throughout this well-rounded set. Allison wrote (or co-wrote with guitarist James Solberg) all but one of the dozen songs, and these range from heated blues struts to blues ballads. ...

Soul Fixin' Man

Soul Fixin' Man (1994) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Soul Fixin' Man was blues guitarist/vocalist Luther Allison's first American recording in nearly 20 years. However, his domestic inactivity was not because Allison had stopped playing music. Far from it, since he was based in Paris and worked constantly on the European continent. A powerful player whose intensity on this set sometimes borders on ...

Luther's Blues

Luther's Blues (1974) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Luther's Blues is where Luther Allison began to come into his own, developing a fluid, gutsy style full of soulful string bending. There are still a few weak spots, but the album remains an effective slice of contemporary Chicago blues. Thom Owens, All Music Guide

Pure Blues

Pure Blues (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

The "pure" in the Pure series initially suggested the unadulterated, soothing dulcet tones of new age in the Pure Moods discs, but as the series took off, Universal Music realized they had a real marketable brand name here, so they decided to use it for different genres. The one thing that all the collections shared was that they were exceptional ...

Live in Chicago

Live in Chicago (1999) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Pulled from performances at the Chicago Blues Festival, Buddy Guy's Legends club with a couple of strays recorded in Lincoln, NE, that were too good not to include, this two-disc set captures Allison at the absolute peak of his powers. Disc one is the Chicago Blues Festival in its entirety with a bonus track of Luther jamming on the finale with ...

Where Have You Been? Live in Montreux 1976-1994

Where Have You Been? Live in Montreux 1976-1994 (1997) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Where Have You Been? Live in Montreux 1976-1994 features the exciting blues guitarist/singer Luther Allison on selections taken from four appearances at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Although the title says 1974-1994, the earliest numbers are actually from 1976, and these are the most memorable cuts on the CD. Even when sticking to cover tunes ...

This is a specially priced, two-CDs-for-the-price-of-one photo-cube set, loaded with great stuff from Charlie Musselwhite, Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, Johnny Winter, Billy Boy Arnold, Lonnie Mack, and a host of others who have trotted their wares on the label over the years.

National Geographic: Destination Chicago (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

A collection of the electric blues from the Windy City. These ones are culled entirely from the old Alligator and Delmark archives (surprisingly not taking from the Chess archives). This avoidance of Chess aside, there's some noteworthy stuff in here. All of the major players from the Chicago scene are represented here, from the opening of the ...

Pay It Forward (2002) more music like this

by Luther Allison

In many cases, collections of musical odds and ends -- a live rarity here, an alternate take there -- can be uneven and inconsistent. And the people they're aimed at -- mainly diehard fans and serious collectors -- are willing to live with that. They have more than just a casual interest in the artist's work, and even the less-from-essential stuff ...

Serious (1987) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Serious marks the beginning of Luther Allison's late-'80s/early-'90s hot streak. The more streamlined, rock-oriented approach actually is a benefit, since it gives Allison a shot of energy that makes his guitar simply burn all the way through the record. Thom Owens, All Music Guide

Atlantic Blues: Chicago (1986) more music like this

by Various Artists

Chess is arguably the first label for blues, but behemoth Atlantic has enough of the stuff -- albeit a bit past its prime -- to still warrant a multi-disc box. This separately sold part of that package takes in some of the giants from the Illinois epicenter of urban blues. Two of the best, Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters, as well as latter-day Windy ...

Love Me Papa (1977) more music like this

by Luther Allison

Luther Allison is the blues' proverbial little boy with the curl; when he's good, he's great. When he's bad, he's awful. Allison was on throughout most of the nine tracks (three bonus cuts) on this 1977 date recently reissued by Evidence on CD, playing with the ferocity, direction, and inventiveness that is often missing from his more uneven ...

Blues Guitar Greats [Delmark] (1996) more music like this

This 17-track collection runs from 1961 to 1995, a good 30-plus years of the label's existence. As such, it covers just about every strain of blues guitar that has ever appeared on Delmark. With standout tracks from Big Joe Williams, Magic Sam (an unreleased live track from 1968), Luther Allison, J.B. Hutto, Robert Jr. Lockwood, Junior Wells with ...
