1	My First Recordings (1997) more music like this by Lowell Fulson Twenty-six tracks that Fulson cut between 1946 and 1951 for the Swing Time, Big Town, and Down Town labels. This is far more sparsely produced, and less urbane in feel, than the material Lowell would record for Chess throughout the 1950s. Indeed, on ten of the cuts, he's supported only by his brother Martin on rhythm guitar; there's a small combo ... see all copies from $16.37! new only from $16.37!
2	San Francisco Blues (1988) more music like this by Lowell Fulson Guitarist and vocalist Lowell Fulson helped establish his reputation with a string of fine songs for the Swingtime label in the late '40s and early '50s. Fulson showed he could belt out hard-hitting blues, do sentimental ballads, double-entendre novelty pieces or irony-filled laments, and also play riveting solos. This '92 CD reissue collects 16 ... see all copies from $5.95! new only from $5.95!
3	1946 to 1953 (2004) more music like this by Lowell Fulson Guitarist/singer Lowell Fulson has long been an overlooked blues innovator, overshadowed by more commercially successful artists such as B.B. King. In truth, Fulson gave King "Three O'Clock Blues," which became a hit for King in the '50s. British label JSP does its best to present a more complete picture of Fulson with the four-CD box set Lowell ... see all copies from $25.71! new only from $25.71!
4	The Original West Coast Blues (2001) more music like this by Lowell Fulson "Fulson's Blues (Bad Luck and Trouble)" and "San Francisco Blues" are the highlights of this collection drawn from Lowell Fulson's earliest recordings for independent West Coast labels like Big Town and Swing Time. Both of these songs are gentle classics, with Fulson's clear, unadorned vocals and guitar runs meshing wonderfully, and a lot of this ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
5	Men of Blues (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This curious three-disc box set mixes in old blues 78s with latter rediscovery recordings to form a rather random, but pleasantly cohesive (if somewhat cursory) introduction to early blues. The wide variety of styles here is impressive, though, ranging from the guttural roars of Charley Patton and Son House, through the highly personalized blues ... see all copies from $14.04! new only from $14.04!
6	1947-1948 (2003) more music like this by Lowell Fulson This is a collection of early Lowell Fulson sides recorded for several small labels in 1947 and early 1948, prior to Fulson's signing with Swing Time Records (two of his Swing Time sides are included here, "Scotty's Blues" and "This Train Is Leaving"). Although there is a charming and unadorned simplicity to several of these tracks, including the ... see all copies from $10.25! new only from $10.25!
7	1946-1947 (2002) more music like this by Lowell Fulson Choctaw Native and African-American bluesman Lowell Fulson was born near Tulsa, OK, in 1921 and grew up in the town of Atoka, which is right up against the Texas/Oklahoma border. Inspired by Blind Lemon Jefferson and one Coot Mason, an itinerant musician remembered as a "hillbilly guitarist," young Fulson moved to Ada, OK, in 1938 and began ... see all copies from $10.25! new only from $10.25!
