Natural Boogie (1973) more music like this

by Hound Dog Taylor and the HouseRockers

Hound Dog Taylor's second album was every bit as wild as the first, bringing with it a fatter sound and a wider range of emotions and music. A recut here of Taylor's first single, "Take Five," totally burns the original while the smoldering intensity of "See Me in the Evening" and "Sadie" take this album to places the first one never reached. ...

Deluxe Edition (1999) more music like this

by Hound Dog Taylor & the Houserockers

The music of Hound Dog Taylor & the HouseRockers remains the place where rock & roll and the blues meet at the end of a dark alley. A slide guitarist of the Elmore James school, Taylor played raw, nasty-sounding music long on energy and short on subtleties. Other blues guitarists used distortion before Taylor, but he explored it to depths only ...

That's My Partner! (2000) more music like this

by Elvin Bishop & Smokey Smothers

Every now and again you get one of those discs that picks up a few threads that have long lain dormant for various reasons, and you are more than overjoyed that someone took the time to help make the reconnections that seem to make life richer. Little Smokey took the young -- and new to Chicago -- Elvin Bishop under his wing in the early '60s and ...

Treasures from the Vault of Cobra Records (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

Wow, they did it this time! Reissue imprint Fuel Records doesn't always get it right when it comes to their releases. Often the packages are hastily assembled, have bad sound, or when they are compiled properly, don't provide enough documentation (liner notes and discographical information) to make the presentation authoritative. That said, this ...

The Cobra Records Story (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

If the 50 tracks on this double-CD box sound an awful lot like they could have come off of any of MCA's various Chess boxes -- but especially the Willie Dixon volume -- it's no accident. Cobra Records was an upstart Chicago-based label that existed for a little over three years at the end of the 1950s, founded by Eli Toscano and Willie Dixon as ...

With a Feeling 57-67: The Cobra, Chief & Crash Recordings (2001) more music like this

by Magic Sam

This set basically apes the Fuel 2000 set issued in 2001 and the Paula set from 1999 but adds a few tracks -- six to be exact -- from early 1967, making it identical to the P-Vine collection from Japan released in 2003. In other words, these recordings that Magic Sam made between the years of 1956-1967 are pure, unadulterated Chicago blues gold. ...

Freddie's Blues (1994) more music like this

by Hound Dog Taylor & the Houserockers

This is the third volume of live recordings from Joe's Place in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1972. Six of the 11 tunes here are instrumentals (four of them featuring the lead guitar of Brewer Phillips), and while Taylor and the Houserockers are generally in rare form here, some chaotic moments ("Let's Get Funky") do abound, but that's half the fun ...
