Riding with the King

Riding with the King (2000) more music like this

by Eric Clapton & B.B. King

The potential for a collaboration between B.B. King and Eric Clapton is enormous, of course, and the real questions concern how it is organized and executed. This first recorded pairing between the 74-year-old King and the 55-year-old Clapton was put together in the most obvious way: Clapton arranged the session using many of his regular musicians ...

The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition

The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition (1990) more music like this

by Derek & the Dominos

This three-CD box did a lot of good for rock reissues, though not necessarily for the Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs album. It was the first high-profile reissue to treat rock with the same respect that scholars had long accorded jazz, going beyond the finished tracks to the outtakes and anything else usable that turned up in the vaults. ...

His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection)

His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) (1997) more music like this

by Little Walter

As MCA reconfigures their Chess catalog, this 20-track single-disc compilation now takes the place of their original 12-track Best of Little Walter collection, a landmark blues album which had remained in print for over three decades. His Best (Chess 50th Anniversary Collection) reprises ten of those seminal tracks (leaving off the echoey "Blue ...

Ultimate Collection

Ultimate Collection (2001) more music like this

by Freddie King

Hip-O's Ultimate Collection is one of the first truly comprehensive overviews of Freddie King's career, starting with his seminal recordings for Federal and running all the way to his final recordings for RSO in the mid-'70s. This is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it's nice to have a disc that tells the whole story, but the shifting production ...

One More Car, One More Rider

One More Car, One More Rider (2002) more music like this

by Eric Clapton

Eric Clapton had a fierce testimonial to the blues with From the Cradle, but One More Car, One More Rider arrives nearly a decade later, and the difference is stunning. Though he goes through the motions of playing the blues -- a cutting version of the perennial "Key to the Highway," "Hoochie Coochie Man," "Goin' Down Slow," among others here -- ...

A Musical History [CD/DVD Box Set]

A Musical History [CD/DVD Box Set] (2005) more music like this

by The Band

Given the countless Band compilations released over the years, plus the exhaustive bonus-track-laden reissues of the proper albums in 2000 and 2001, it's easy to be suspicious of the six-disc A Musical History, especially since it's the third Band box set released in the CD era. It would seem that all the worthwhile previously unreleased music ...

Last Time Around -- Live at Legends

Last Time Around -- Live at Legends (1998) more music like this

by Buddy Guy & Junior Wells

Last Time Around -- Live At Legends is a fitting farewell to the late, great Junior Wells and his partnership, friendship and kinship with Buddy Guy that lasted decades. The album is a historic release in many ways. It reunites two blues legends who began their unique association in the 1950s. The album was recorded live in March 1993 at Buddy Guy ...

Getting Ready...

Getting Ready... (1971) more music like this

by Freddie King

The first of Freddie King's three albums for Leon Russell's Shelter label set the tone for his work for the company: competent electric blues with a prominent rock/soul influence. King sings and plays well, but neither the sidemen nor the material challenge him to scale significant heights. Part of the problem is that King himself wrote none of ...

Rough Guide to the Blues

Rough Guide to the Blues (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

Full marks to the Rough Guide people -- with this release they've hit it very squarely on the head. If you want one definitive guide to the blues, this is it. Granted, not every major figure is here -- no Skip James or Furry Lewis, for example, or Tampa Red -- but this is as good as you're going to find on a single CD, ranging from the very early ...

I Want You to Know

I Want You to Know (1996) more music like this

by Paul Rishell & Annie Raines

The team of guitarist Paul Rishell and Annie Raines on harmonica (both sing) is so appealing that their acoustic duets make the occasional guests (and electrification of the music) seem unnecessary although Ronnie Earl gets in a few good guitar solos. Five originals by the Rishell/Raines team fit right in with songs by the likes of Blind Boy ...

Backwater Blues (1999) more music like this

by Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee

Songs of whiskey, women, and money -- nothing was more important to the repertoire of this classic acoustic blues duo. Good relations on stage were not, but during this 18-tune club date at Sugar Hill in San Francisco, Terry and McGhee are in good spirits. The former's fingerpicking, good-time guitar strummin', and even-keeled singing, joined by ...

Trouble in Mind [Smithsonian/Folkways] (2000) more music like this

by Big Bill Broonzy

This is something of a best-of for Broonzy's Folkways recordings, done in 1956-57 near the end of his life, all featuring just his voice and his acoustic guitar (although Pete Seeger adds banjo to a live version of "This Train (Bound for Glory)"). Although Broonzy, who died in 1958 of throat cancer, was likely not in peak physical shape by this ...

by Various Artists

Newport Folk Festival: Best of the Blues 1959-1968 presents live performances from many of the top blues players of the era. From Skip James to Mance Lipscomb to Memphis Slim, these musicians play mostly acoustic blues before an appreciative audience. From the first disc, Mississippi John Hurt's six-song set is a standout. Piedmont fingerpicking ...

Smokin' Blues collects nine blues tracks from John Lee Hooker, Little Milton, Bobby Bland, and Little Walter at a budget price. B.B. King's "Into the Night," Muddy Waters' "Love Weapon," Etta James' "Next Door to the Blues," and Howlin' Wolf's "Three Hundred Pounds of Joy" are some of the highlights from this brief but undeniably affordable blues ...

On Tap (1975) more music like this

by Junior Wells

Underrated mid-'70s collection boasting a contemporary, funky edge driven by guitarists Phil Guy and Sammy Lawhorn, keyboardist Big Moose Walker, and saxman A.C. Reed. Especially potent is the crackling "The Train I Ride," a kissin' cousin to Little Junior Parker's "Mystery Train." Bill Dahl, All Music Guide

The Bill Broonzy Story (1960) more music like this

by Big Bill Broonzy

This three-CD set (originally five LPs) was a product of three recording sessions, held on July 12 and 13, 1957, immediately before Broonzy entered the hospital for surgery on the lung cancer that would end his career and take his life just a year later. He sounds in good enough spirits, and the voice and guitar are still in excellent form as he ...

Done Some Travelin' (1972) more music like this

by Frank Edwards

Edwards' only album was recorded for Trix in 1972, and it was a masterpiece of bemused originals, odd covers, spiritual cries, and hedonistic shouts. If you have never heard of Frank Edwards, and few have, don't miss this one. It won't make him a legend, but it might make people realize that there are still great musicians around whom they've ...

Although Chess' big four (Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, and Sonny Boy Williamson) are all finely represented, influential sides by Elmore James ("Madison Blues"), Otis ...
