Eric Clapton E.C. Was Here CD (1975) Remastered

Chain Gang Blues music CDs

$6.49

On the original LP, the song "Drifting Blues" faded out after about 3 minutes. The CD contains the complete 11:31 version. Released in the same year as 1975's THERE'S ONE IN EVERY CROWD, E.C. WAS HERE is a live album short on content but long in presentation. Backed by his usual mid-70's studio cohorts (George Terry, Jamie Oldaker, Yvonne Elliman, Marcy Levy, etc.), Clapton ignored his then-current material off CROWD and 461 OCEAN BOULEVARD, instead choosing to explore his immediate, post-Cream era along with some extended, old favorites. "Presence Of The Lord" and "Can't Find My Way Home" were retrieved from Blind Faith's sole album and both are infused with a subtle, spiritual feeling of someone who's emerged from a long period of sorrow. The ...

A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's ...

Robert Johnson Complete Recordings CDs (1990) Box Set

Chain Gang Blues CD music

$16.05

THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS includes a 48-page booklet with biographical notes, rare photos and a complete discography. Recorded in San Antonio, Texas on November 23 & 26-27, 1936 and Dallas, Texas on June 19-20, 1937. Includes liner notes by Stephen LaVere, Keith Richards and Eric Clapton. Noted blues historian Robert Palmer has called him "the Mississippi Delta's first modern blues-man," and over the past 50 years Robert Johnson's influence has reached out from beyond the grave. Though his recording output numbers fewer than 30 different songs, Johnson's catalog has been a treasure trove picked clean by artists ranging from Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones to Led Zeppelin and the Grateful Dead. The beauty of THE COMPLETE RECORDINGS lies in its utter simplicity. ...

Jimmy Dawkins Tribute To Orange CD (1974)

Chain Gang Blues music CDs

$10.55

Tracks 1-8 recorded on November 30, 1971 at Condorcet Studio, Tolouse, France. Tracks 9-13 recorded on November 26, 1974 at Barclay Studio, Paris, France. Includes liner notes by Dick Shurman. All songs written by Jimmy Dawkins except "Ode To Billy Joe" (Bobbie Gentry). Jimmy Dawkins' infrequent albums are always a joy, and that was the case when he made his first sojourn to Europe in 1970 and recorded LPs for Black & Blue, Vogue, and Excello in France and England. This disc features eight numbers pairing Dawkins and the great Gatemouth Brown and another four matching him with equally sensational Otis Rush. The Brown/Dawkins tandem duel, match, and challenge each other as Dawkins' sometimes ...

Clarence Spady Nature Of The Beast CD (1996)

Chain Gang Blues songs

$10.15

Let's see, a debut album on a respected but still second-tier label by a new generation bluesman from that fabled blues center of Scranton, Pennsylvania? Tell me that don't have journeyman and formula written all over it. But the nature of the beast that is Clarence Spady's debut album is that while you can't really zoom in on any one element that makes it work, the music moves and grooves and most definitely works. Spady is a good singer with a raspy growl that falls close to Johnny Copeland territory. As a guitarist, he's a capable yet not breathtaking soloist but genuinely funky in his rhythm comping, probably since he was playing in R&B showbands on the East Coast casino/resort circuit for most of the `80s. The four songs he contributed here show he's a solid songwriter, the lyrics taken from personal experience more than blues archetypes, but nothing to stamp him as a true original in that department. What is distinctive is that the group is an organ trio (Mark Hamza supplies bass via pedals) with extra sax integrated into the group sound (Tom "T-Bone" Hamilton plays a lot more than the usual section parts and solos). Spady does have a good eye for stepping outside the usual blues repertoire for tunes by Raful Neal, Son Seals, and hard bopper Clifford Brown. Even his take on "Hi Heeled Sneakers" goes by way of Chuck Berry's "Memphis" to show off a repertoire of country licks. In fact, the most lukewarm cuts are the basic boogie of "Built For Comfort" and the overly smoothed-out "Picture of Love" co-written by Robben Ford. But what sticks is the chicken-scratch comping and funky grooving of "Baby Baby Baby" or "A Good Fool Is Hard To Find," the ska tinge to the shuffle "Answer To The Man," or guitar-sax-organ trade-offs that are so tight on "Change My Way Of Livin'" and "Blues ...
