An Evening with the Allman Brothers Band: 2nd Set

An Evening with the Allman Brothers Band: 2nd Set (1995) more music like this

by The Allman Brothers Band

The Allman Brothers Band's fifth live release in 25 years, cut during 1994 in Raleigh, NC, and at the Garden State Arts Center in New Jersey, is a high-water mark in their Epic Records catalog. If anything, they're even better here than they were on the earlier Evening With the Allman Brothers Band, the old material getting fresh new approaches -- ...

The Chess Box

The Chess Box (1990) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

The Chess Box does not contain all the great music Muddy Waters made. His talent and legacy are too large to be captured in a mere three discs, even one that spans from 1947 to 1972. This means, of course, that his legendary plantation recordings with Alan Lomax are not here, nor is his dynamic late-'70s comeback, Hard Again. But, truth be told, ...

About Them Shoes

About Them Shoes (2003) more music like this

by Hubert Sumlin

Hubert Sumlin's About Them Shoes is a refreshingly pure blues recording which comes at a time when others are distorting the genre with various "contemporary" elements. The songs are from the repertoire of Muddy Waters -- seven tunes written by Waters (McKinley Morganfield), four by Willie Dixon, one from Carl C. Wright, and a beauty by Sumlin to ...

Weary and Wired

Weary and Wired (2007) more music like this

by Marc Ford

The ex-Black Crowes guitarist's first solo album in five years is far more wired than weary, which is certainly a good thing. Rejoining musicians from his pre-Crows years in the band Burning Tree (bassist Mark "Muddy" Dutton and drummer Doni Gray), Ford strips down to a basic trio format, although one loose enough to allow horns, keyboards, and ...

I Am the Blues

I Am the Blues (1970) more music like this

by Willie Dixon

The material is superb, consisting of some of Willie Dixon's best-known songs of the 1960s, and the production is smoothly professional, but none of the performances here are likely to make you forget the hits by Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and others. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

Electric Mud

Electric Mud (1968) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

In an attempt to make Muddy more sellable to his newly-found White audience, Chess lumbered him with Hendrix-influenced psychedelic blues arrangements for Electric Mud. Commercially, actually, the results weren't bad; Marshall Chess claims it sold between 150,000 and 200,000 copies. Musically, it was as ill-advised as putting Dustin Hoffman into a ...

Crucial Slide Guitar Blues

Crucial Slide Guitar Blues (2004) more music like this

by Various Artists

Alligator has a justifiable reputation as one of the premier blues labels, and it draws on its recorded resources for this compilation. There's certainly no doubting the quality of the players and the music here, from Johnny Winter to the late Hound Dog Taylor, whose raw style sears the ears on Elmore James' "The Sun Is Shining." An older Corey ...

The Anthology: 1947-1972

The Anthology: 1947-1972 (2001) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

There have been countless collections of Muddy Waters' classic Chess material released over the years, but Chess began to whittle down the domestic catalog toward the late '90s. The triple-disc Chess box remained in print, but they added two single-disc collections that each covered a specific period in Waters' career at Chess. Then, in 2001, MCA ...

The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues [MCA]

The Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues [MCA] (1999) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

Waters' The Real Folk Blues and More Real Folk Blues, combined here onto one CD, were not exactly random collections of tracks -- the quality was too consistently high for them to just have been picked out of a hat. Still, it was a pretty arbitrary grouping of items that he recorded between 1947 and 1964. In fact, they hail from throughout his ...

What's Good for You (1991) more music like this

by Treat Her Right

Treat Her Right hails from Boston, but the blues-rock and bluesy rock offered on What's Good for You sounds more like something one would hear in an out-of-the-way bar in Chicago. There's nothing even remotely slick about this CD, which is as gritty as it is heartfelt. From the Rolling Stones' "Factory Girl" to John Lee Hooker's "Tease Me" and ...

Rising Son (1999) more music like this

by Big Bill Morganfield

He's got some of the biggest shoes to fill in the history of blues, but Muddy Waters' son, Big Bill Morganfield leads three of his father's former compatriots through a stirring set of blues standards and new tracks. Morganfield's slide guitar is an excellent addition to the proceedings. Earl Simmons, All Music Guide

Live, Love, Larf & Loaf (1987) more music like this

by French Frith Kaiser Thompson

Richard Thompson once joked that if his presence on an album with John French, Fred Frith, and Henry Kaiser was expected to help it appeal to a wider audience, it didn't say much for the state of their careers. But while French Frith Kaiser Thompson was hardly a supergroup to rival Blind Faith or the Traveling Wilburys at the turnstiles, on Live, ...

My Blues & My Guitar (1995) more music like this

by Bob Margolin

Steady Rollin' Bob Margolin really comes into his own with My Blues and My Guitar, his second album for Alligator Records. He still pays homage to his mentor, Muddy Waters, not only through covers but simply through his driving musical style. He blends the familiar ("Rip It Up," "Going Home," "The Same Thing") with unpredictable ("See Me in the ...

Fathers & Sons [Chess] (1982) more music like this

by Various Artists

Put blues legends Muddy Waters and Otis Spann together in a recording studio with young upstarts such as Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, Buddy Miles, amongst others, and hope that the magic will flow. On Fathers and Sons it does, and then some. Originally a two-record set now pared down to one CD, Fathers and Sons displays the love that these ...

The Songs of Willie Dixon (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Songs of Willie Dixon finds a number of mostly contemporary blues practitioners paying tribute to the legendary composer/bassist. Of course, it isn't difficult to pick quality material out of Dixon's catalog, so the collection will sink or swim with the performances. And, for the most part, they're pretty good, with some interesting, modern ...

Fathers and Sons (1969) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

The resurgence of Chicago-based blues in the mid- to late 1960s came with an entirely new breed of icons to bear the torch. Among them were the decidedly electric Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Joining Muddy Waters (guitar/vocals) and Otis Spann (piano) on the aptly titled Fathers and Sons are three Butterfield Blues Band alumni: Michael Bloomfield ...

This imported disc is the way to hear the material on these two legendary records -- bright, sharp, and mean. Released in January of 1966, The Real Folk Blues was the first long-player since The Best of Muddy Waters, eight years earlier, to assemble any of Muddy's various singles, from "Gypsy Woman" in 1947 through "The Same Thing" in 1964, in one ...

This is a sampling of a dozen harp players who participated in a touring revue called Harp Attack, who played the Los Angeles nightclub circuit. Standing out for being the most adventuresome is "Ironman" (mistakenly labeled as "Iron") by Mike Curtis, a one-man band who judiciously tackles "Take Five" with a tastefully bluesey approach. Certainly ...
