The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1]

The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1] (1990) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

A double-disc box set containing everything Robert Johnson ever recorded, The Complete Recordings is essential listening, but it is also slightly problematic. The problems aren't in the music itself, of course, which is stunning and the fidelity of the recordings is the best it ever has been or ever will be. Instead, it's in the track sequencing. ...

Me and Mr. Johnson

Me and Mr. Johnson (2004) more music like this

by Eric Clapton

Ten years after his first all-blues album, From the Cradle, Eric Clapton released Me and Mr. Johnson, an album-length tribute to his hero, the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson. Not that this is the first time Clapton has paid tribute to Johnson. Throughout his career, Clapton has not only drawn on Johnson for inspiration, but he has covered his ...

Chops Not Chaps

Chops Not Chaps (1986) more music like this

by Roy Rogers

Roy Rogers's debut album Chops Not Chaps is a fine blues-rock album, driven by his dynamite slide guitar. The album alternates between covers of blues classics and originals that are effective, but not particularly remarkable. Nevertheless, the quality of Rogers's performance makes this an impressive and memorable debut. Thom Owens, All Music ...

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track]

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track] (1966) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Reading about the power inherent in Robert Johnson's music is one thing, but actually experiencing it is another matter entirely. The official 1998 edition of the original 1961 album was certainly worth the wait, remastered off the best quality original 78s available, of far superior quality to any of the source materials used on even the 1991 ...

The Complete Plantation Recordings

The Complete Plantation Recordings (1993) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

At long last, Muddy's historic 1941-1942 Library of Congress field recordings are all collected in one place, with the best fidelity that's been heard thus far. Waters performs solo pieces (you can hear his slide rattling against the fretboard in spots) and band pieces with the Son Sims Four, "Rosalie" being a virtual blueprint for his later ...

The Deepest End: Live in Concert

The Deepest End: Live in Concert (2003) more music like this

by Gov't Mule

Given all the live documents Gov't Mule issued since the premature death of bassist Allen Woody, The Deepest End is easily the most satisfying. Recorded and filmed during the 2003 Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans, the show features the most astonishing array of guest bassists yet, and so many other guests the date was like a festival unto ...

Artist's Choice: Rolling Stones

Artist's Choice: Rolling Stones (2003) more music like this

by The Rolling Stones

Released as part of Hear Music's ongoing Artist's Choice series, where major artists pick "the music that matters to them," the 2003 compilation Rolling Stones: Artist's Choice finds Mick, Keith, Charlie, and Ronnie running through 16 recordings of their favorite songs by other artists. It should come as no surprise that blues, R&B, soul, old-time ...

Delta Crossroads

Delta Crossroads (2000) more music like this

by Robert Lockwood, Jr.

For Delta Crossroads, Robert Lockwood Jr., a former student of Robert Johnson, returns to his Delta blues roots. This 16-track album features Lockwood with only his 12-string acoustic guitar. It is rather strange hearing old Delta blues sung by one of its originals on a modern recording. All of the notes from the guitar are clear. Plus, his voice ...

Long Journey Home

Long Journey Home (2006) more music like this

by Cowboy Junkies

The Cowboy Junkies have long understood that their music was served best on record when it was least adorned by the recording process -- their commercial and critical breakthrough, 1988's The Trinity Session, was recorded live to digital tape using a single microphone during a single evening -- so it's not surprising that they've made a handful of ...

Live 'n' Kicking at Lexington

Live 'n' Kicking at Lexington (1970) more music like this

by Pacific Gas & Electric

This live album by Pacific Gas & Electric was slated for release by Columbia, but, due to legal problems, they never actually issued it. Thirty seven years later, Wounded Bird finally provided the record's first release. Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide

The Lady and Mr. Johnson (2006) more music like this

by Rory Block

On Rory Block's masterpiece concept album, The Lady and Mr. Johnson, it becomes obvious that she and her guitar are one in the same. The two use each other and live through one another. Block's adoration for the blues has allowed her to explore its various sides, while always remaining true to the sound of her blues idols. Since she first became ...

Two Sides of If (2005) more music like this

by Vivian Campbell

After his tenure in several of heavy metal's most legendary groups (most notably Whitesnake and Def Leppard), Vivian Campbell steps out into the spotlight for his first solo endeavor, and the results are nothing less than impressive. Taking his first vocal bows behind the microphone is a big step for someone who usually lets his fingers do the ...

King of the Delta Blues [Columbia/Legacy] (1997) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

This 16-track single-disc compilation gathers up the best-known tracks from the two original volumes of King of the Delta Blues Singers for a nice entry-level collection of Robert's best. Utilizing the latest in remastering technology, these recordings have never sounded quite this clear and full-bodied before, and the difference between this and ...

Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 2 (1930-1931) (1992) more music like this

by Roosevelt Sykes

Part of the most ambitious series of Roosevelt Sykes reissues ever undertaken, Document's Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 2 (1930-1931) features 24 tracks of prime blues piano, everything Sykes recorded during the year-long period between June of 1930 and June of 1931. Though there aren't as many classic tracks here as on other volumes, there are ...

Me & the Devil (2001) more music like this

by Peter Green & Robert Johnson

While it's no secret that guitar king Peter Green is obsessed with Robert Johnson, having done two previous recordings of his music, this box is in essence something else. There are three CDs included here, one of which is Hot Foot Powder, the first album by the Peter Green Splinter Group, which included guest performances from the likes of Otis ...

The Best of John Hammond (1989) more music like this

by John Hammond

Vanguard's The Best of John Hammond is an excellent collection that features 22 highlights from Hammond's early albums. Balancing acoustic and electric material, the set includes "My Babe," "Milk Cow Calf's Blues," "Big Boss Man," "See That My Grave Is Kept Clean," "Stones in My Passway," "Key to the Highway" and "Who Do You Love," among others. ...

Down in the Delta (2005) more music like this

by Paul Oscher

It's interesting that many of the blues artists listeners have come to love -- from Robert Johnson to Robert Lockwood -- never set out to be immortalized. Their high goals -- making money playing music, chasing women, and drinking -- didn't necessarily consider art. Paul Oscher harks back to this non-noble tradition on Down in the Delta, an album ...

by John Hammond, Jr.

Founded in 1950 by brothers Seymour Solomon and Maynard Solomon just as the LP format was taking hold (it had been introduced to the market two years previously), Vanguard Records took full advantage of the longer playing time afforded and began life as a classical label, moving easily into jazz, then gospel, bluegrass, blues, and folk (as Joan ...

Although Hammond had already recorded electric material, he went back to a solo acoustic format for his fourth album, accompanying himself on guitar and harmonica on faithful interpretations of standards by Robert Johnson, Blind Willie McTell, John Lee Hooker, Sleepy John Estes, Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon, and Bo Diddley. If it sounds a bit ...

At the Crossroads: The Blues of Robert Johnson (2003) more music like this

by John Hammond, Jr.

If Robert Johnson could look down from heaven or up from hell, he'd likely find it very interesting that John Hammond, Jr. had covered his songs. Here is a white guy, after all, who sounds like a black blues singer and chooses -- of his own free will -- to frequently return to the repertoire of an obscure black guitarist/singer from the 1930s. At ...
