Bronx in Blue

Bronx in Blue (2005) more music like this

by Dion

Since his doo wop beginnings in the 1950s, Dion has tried a number of different musical styles, including the rock & roll of his early-'60s solo work and his late-'60s folk-pop phase. He also played the blues, if less prominently (see for example the belatedly released Bronx Blues album), and he again tries the style here in what he bills as a ...

Sugar

Sugar (1991) more music like this

by Leon Redbone

Leon Redbone entered the 1990s with the baker's dozen of selections on Sugar (1991), one of his best overall efforts to date. His unique and unmistakable interpretations of obscure jazz and early popular melodies are augmented by the occasional and equally singular original composition. The tunes are carefully crafted in such a way that they ably ...

Broken Arrow

Broken Arrow (1996) more music like this

by Neil Young with Crazy Horse

In many ways, Broken Arrow follows the same path as Neil Young's other '90s albums with Crazy Horse. Broken Arrow floats on waves of lumbering guitars and cascading feedback, ebbing and flowing with winding solos and drifting melodies. In a typical display of artistic perversion, Young has front-loaded the album with three epics with a combined ...

Etta James Rocks the House

Etta James Rocks the House (1964) more music like this

by Etta James

Simply one of the greatest live blues albums ever captured on tape. Cut in 1963 at the New Era Club in Nashville, the set finds Etta James in stellar shape as she forcefully delivers her own "Something's Got a Hold on Me" and "Seven Day Fool" interspersed with a diet of sizzling covers ("What'd I Say," "Sweet Little Angel," "Money," "Ooh Poo Pah ...

On the Jimmy Reed Highway

On the Jimmy Reed Highway (2007) more music like this

by Omar Kent Dykes/Jimmie Vaughan

Some tribute projects to earlier greats seek to modernize and update their music. This project, co-led by singer Omar Kent Dykes and guitarist Jimmie Vaughan, instead focuses on revitalizing the music of Jimmy Reed in traditional settings. While not closely copying the original recordings, these new renditions are very much "in the tradition." ...

Alone & Acoustic

Alone & Acoustic (1991) more music like this

by Buddy Guy/Junior Wells

The classic pairing of Buddy Guy and Junior Wells has been captured many times on vinyl, cassette, and disc over the years, but rarely with such intimacy and subtle, restrained energy as on this wonderful collection. Buddy Guy plays mostly 12 string guitar, and Junior laces his signature lines through the songs, engaging Guy in the kind of musical ...

Elvis Aron Presley

Elvis Aron Presley (1980) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

This four-CD set is nothing less than essential, with just a couple of important caveats to consider, mostly based on its age. Released in 1980, Elvis Aron Presley -- which is often referred to informally as "The Silver Box" -- was the first attempt at a serious boxed set devoted to Elvis Presley. In keeping with the many other "firsts" in his ...

Huevos

Huevos (1987) more music like this

by Meat Puppets

Recorded and released just a few months after the experimental Mirage, 1987's Huevos was a return to the Meat Puppets' earlier, more straight-ahead direction. The band (guitarist/singer Curt Kirkwood in particular) had always voiced their admiration of ZZ Top, and Huevos contained Billy Gibbons & Co.'s influence more than any other Puppets release ...

T.E.V.I.N.

T.E.V.I.N. (1991) more music like this

by Tevin Campbell

If T.E.V.I.N. had been recorded by an adult instead of a teenager, the album would still be impressive, but the fact that Tevin Campbell was only 14 years old when this was made makes it all the more amazing. Campbell's voice is remarkably expressive, able to handle both ballads and up-tempo dance tracks without losing confidence. When he has the ...

Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde

Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde (1969) more music like this

by The Byrds

Chris Hillman, Gram Parsons, and Kevin Kelley all left the Byrds in wake of the release of Sweetheart of the Rodeo, leaving Roger McGuinn to assemble a new band from scratch. Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde, the first album with McGuinn as unquestioned leader (and sole founding member), was an interesting but uneven set that saw him attempting to bring ...

Slow Motion (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

As seen on TV, Slow Motion gathers a bunch of significant R&B ballads, all of which date from the early '90s through the early 2000s. Most of the tracks were huge hits, dedicated hundreds of times over on radio call-in shows, so they're bound to spark some memories for twenty- and thirtysomethings -- of courtship, prom, breakups, and perhaps the ...

The Essential Etta James (1993) more music like this

by Etta James

The Essential Etta James comprises 44 tracks summarizing the long and brilliant Chess tenure of "Miss Peaches," Etta James, opening with her 1960 smash "All I Could Do Was Cry," and encompassing her torchy, fully orchestrated ballads "At Last," "My Dearest Darling," and "Trust in Me," and continuing on through her 1962 gospel-rocker "Something's ...

Elvis by the Presleys (2005) more music like this

The double-disc set Elvis by the Presleys is part of a May 2005 multimedia juggernaut of the same name, containing a two-hour documentary broadcast on CBS that month, a four-hour expanded version of the film released on DVD a few weeks later, and a 250-page book published that month, as well. The intent behind the project is to show Elvis as his ...

Portrait of the Blues (1992) more music like this

by Lou Rawls

A wholesome blues effort by the native Chicagoan. Though these are bona fide blues numbers, Rawls confronts each song with an elegant touch. His delivery and articulation give the songs an uptown flair. Of the 15 numbers, only four ("Baby What You Want Me to Do," "Hide Nor Hair," "My Babe," and "Saturday Night Fish Fry") have that up-tempo, boogie ...

Jammed Together (1988) more music like this

by Steve Cropper/Pop Staples/Albert King

While this is not nearly as essential as some other Stax wax, it has a loose, raffish appeal and never falls into the murk of a boring super-session chopsfest. These guys were simply havin' fun with some standard soul/R&B covers (e.g. "What'd I Say," "Baby What You Want Me To Do") and some wide-open originals, kickin' back with some serious riffin ...

The Very Best of Fontella Bass (2006)

by Fontella Bass

This 25-track British release is the most comprehensive anthology of Fontella Bass' Chess work ever assembled. Very Best of Fontella Bass includes the entirety of her 1966 The New Look LP, as well as ten tracks from singles and three duets with Bobby McClure. If you value quantity as much as quality, it's certainly a superior buy to the shorter 16 ...

A Date with the Everly Brothers (1961) more music like this

by The Everly Brothers

Although the material is not on the killer level of It's Everly Time, there are some very fine songs on their second Warner LP. Includes "Cathy's Clown," their raucous cover of Little Richard's "Lucille," "Love Hurts" (which preceded Roy Orbison's hit version), and "So How Come" (covered by the Beatles in 1963 on the BBC). Richie Unterberger, ...

The Chess Box (2000) more music like this

by Etta James

Etta James is one of the towering figures of the blues, the foremost female blues vocalist of the second half of the 20th century, and the foundation of her legacy is her recordings for Chess Records in the '60s. Despite her reputation and enduring popularity, Etta didn't receive a box set retrospective between 1988 and 1990, the time when Chess ...

Elvis: A Legendary Performer, Vol. 2 (1976) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

The second volume in RCA's Legendary Performer series on Elvis Presley followed the pattern of the first one, mixing well-known songs about half and half with previously unreleased songs or alternate takes. Volume 1 had boasted an alternate of the Sun Records track "I Love You Because"; Volume 2 trumped that by digging up a previously unreleased ...

Fitchburg Street (2003) more music like this

by Doyle Bramhall

Doyle Bramhall began his music career on Fitchburg Street in Dallas, and on his album of the same name he applies a healthy slathering of Texas style to some rock, blues, and soul songs from his youth (and one of his own creations). It's a recipe for a raw, messy, and delicious delight for fans of rough-and-tumble bar band blues. Bramhall's style ...

Miss Blues' Child (2007) more music like this

by Eli Cook

The white blues performers of the 1960s desperately wanted to sound like 65 year-old sharecroppers. Young Eli Cook manages that trick without trying, with a deep voice that sounds as old as the hills. On this blues album, a mix of his good originals and some traditional material and standards, he shows himself to be a performer of great talent, if ...

Found Love (1959) more music like this

by Jimmy Reed

There isn't a bad track on Found Love. Not only are some of Jimmy Reed's biggest hits included -- "Baby What You Want Me to Do," "Big Boss Man," and "Hush Hush" -- but the title track is particularly notable, as it contains a one-note harp wail that proves to be vibrant, heartfelt, and timeless. As with most of Reed's albums of this period -- and ...

Live from Austin, TX (2005) more music like this

It's hard to imagine a band that was more perfectly suited for Austin, TX, than the Texas Tornados. Never mind the fact that two of the city's favorite sons, Doug Sahm and Augie Meyers, were members (and that the other key members, Freddy Fender and Flaco Jimenez, were equally beloved throughout the Lone Star State) -- in a city with as voracious ...
