Discovering the Blues
(1972)

by
Robben Ford
Discovering the Blues is culled from a series of concerts Robben Ford gave in the early '70s at Huntington Beach's Golden Bear and Ash Grove in Hollywood. At the time, Ford was just beginning his career, and his style wasn't nearly as accomplished as it would later be. Instead, he simply burns, tearing through blues classics with a passion and ...

Chronicles: Live at the Regal/Blues Is King/Live in Cook County Jail

by
B.B. King
In 2005 MCA/Universal repackaged B.B. King's greatest live albums -- Live at the Regal, Blues Is King and Live in Cook County Jail -- as a three-CD box set. It's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them, but there are no bonus tracks or new packaging or remastering, which means it's of marginal interest to hardcore ...

John Lee Hooker
John Lee Hooker never abandoned his raw, gut bucket Mississippi-Delta-comes-to-the-city approach to the blues throughout his fifty-year career, and if he got a tad bit slicker towards the end of that career, it was only a tad and only by degree. There are innumerable Hooker collections on the market, and this two-disc set wouldn't be anything ...

Anthology: The Early Years
(2001)

by
Robben Ford
Robben Ford has always been a very eclectic musician; therefore, the people who get the most out of his recordings tend to have eclectic tastes themselves. If you're the sort of broad-minded listener who holds blues, rock, and jazz in equally high regard, Anthology: The Early Years is a musical feast. This two-CD set, which Avenue Jazz provided in ...

The Complete 50's Chess Recordings
(1998)
more music like this
by
John Lee Hooker
Hooker bounced around between label affiliations like crazy in the 1950s, recording under almost as many fake names as he did labels during that decade. His two lasting record company hookups occurred with Chess in the early 1950s and Vee-Jay later on in the decade. All of Hooker's Chess masters from that decade (he would later record in the '60s ...

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of John Lee Hooker

John Lee Hooker
Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around -- well, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line ...

more music like this
by
John Lee Hooker
In the 1980s, John Lee Hooker's career revitalized with The Healer, which won a Grammy, and concurrent with this release was a resurgence of interest in Hooker as a recording artist. This interest occasioned the reissue of much of the Chess catalog of his early work. This 1984 double album, whose song lineup is almost identical to a 1982 Chess ...

Down Home Blues

by
John Lee Hooker
John Lee Hooker never met a record contract with an exclusivity clause he felt he needed to honor, and he recorded under countless different names for any label that would pay him the cash in the early going, filling the start of his imposingly lengthy discography with probably more questions than answers. During the period of time covered by this ...

by
Savoy Brown
BGO brings together the first two Savoy Brown albums in this double-disc set to great effect. Much of Shake Down, recorded in 1968, has been forgotten -- which is easy to do given that virtually the entire band turned over after its release, including singer Bryce Portius who was replaced on Getting to the Point by the great Chris Youlden. On the ...
