Somebody Loan Me a Dime

Somebody Loan Me a Dime (1974) more music like this

by Fenton Robinson

One of the most subtly satisfying electric blues albums of the '70s. Fenton Robinson never did quite fit the "Genuine Houserocking Music" image of Alligator Records -- his deep, rich baritone sounds more like a magic carpet than a piece of barbed wire, and he speaks in jazz-inflected tongues, full of complex surprises. The title track hits with ...

Bar Room Preacher

Bar Room Preacher (1983) more music like this

by Jimmy Johnson

Unlike his Delmark sets, almost everything on this set (first issued in France on Black & Blue) is a cover (only the observant "Heap See" boasts original lyrics). Still, "Barroom Preacher" stands as the Chicago guitarist's most satisfying and consistent album, as he deals out gorgeous, shimmering versions of "Little by Little, " "Cold, Cold ...

The Birth of the Blues [Soho]

The Birth of the Blues [Soho] (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

This three-disc set doesn't so much chronicle the birth of the blues, as it does its adolescence, marking the point when the blues went urban and electric. Among the highlights here are Mississippi Fred McDowell's "61 Highway," Magic Slim's stately and poignant "Cummins Prison Farm," and Lightnin' Hopkins' "War Is Starting Again." Steve Leggett, ...
