This record takes old blues music and runs it through a filter fueled by Kentucky bourbon and Southern soul.
Tag: Blues
Zoo – Čas Sluhů
A great Czechoslovakian companion to a Highlander rip off
Black Pumas
Timeless.
Ben Miller Band – Choke Cherry Tree
It is not what you think of when you think of a country record
Ida Mae – Chasing Lights
Singer-songwriter folk filtered through the blues of the American South
Anderson East – Delilah
Can music be sexy? Absofuckinglutley.
Black Stone Cherry – Family Tree
Family Tree is a backroad driving, horseshoe pitching, beer-drinking record.
Anderson East – Encore
Encore oozes soul.
Steve Earle & The Dukes – Terraplane
Terraplane is the kind of record you put on the turntable to impress people in the know or in the music industry.
Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band – Front Porch Sessions
This is rock n roll as if it had evolved in the hollers of West Virginia.
The Rolling Stones – Emotional Rescue
This is a solid blues-based rock n roll album that has flares of funky disco, big band rock with horns and pianos, punk rock lite, and stripped down coffee house music.
Howlin’ Wolf
Howlin’ Wolf’s vocal work has that I-have-seen-some-shit-that-you-would-not-believe-type of feel to it. He is the kind of guy that you do not want to mess with, but want to hang around so you can hear his stories.
The Rolling Stones – Aftermath
Aftermath is almost 51 years old. Think about that for a moment; 51 years in the future is the year 2068. Damn.
A Little Something More From Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats
This record is Memphis soul, Delta blues, and party jam band all wrapped into one big and bold sound.
Willie and the Poor Boys
Willie and the Poor Boys jams when it comes to rocking out on a piano and can hold its own against any similar record.
Gary Clark Jr. – Church + The Healing
This is not blues-virtuoso-Gary Clark Jr., this is soulful-take-you-to-church-Gary Clark Jr.
Shovels & Rope – Little Seeds
Little Seeds ends on a low and sad note. This LP is an emotional trip.
Mudcrutch – Mudcrutch 2
This is a solid record that satisfies an itch for new music that sounds like old music. Also, I imagine that this album sounds better with a little marijuana.
The Doors – L.A. Woman
There is not a lot of overproduction on this album. It sounds unrefined and gritty, but also clean at the same time.
Creedence Clearwater Revival – Pendulum
This album is less of the swamp music sound that is associated with Creedence Clearwater Revival and is more of a soulful jam band sound.
Chuck Berry – St. Louie To Frisco To Memphis
I am pretty sure that I am 1% blacker because I listened to this album.
Rival Sons – Hollow Bones
It sounds the way it should. It is heavy where it needs to be and filled with catchy tunes that will make you nod your head in time
Randall Bramblett – Devil Music
It is soulful funky blues with a little country spice.
The Righteous Brothers – Some Blue-Eyed Soul
If I told you this album was a black blues singer from the bayou named Smokey Bones Washington, you’d believe me.
