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

CMJ (5/3/99, pp.29-30) - "...Big Bill is none other than the son of the Windy City blues master Muddy Waters....your arm and neck hairs will stand on end when Big Bill moans and rasps in an uncannily family style..."
Living Blues (7-8/99, pp.53-4) - "...[Muddy's Band] back Morganfield unerringly, often recreating Muddy's vintage Chicago-style sound with eerie verisimilitude....it sounds as if [Morganfield's] got the chops to make a place for himself in the modern blues pantheon."

Purchase Rising Son CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Little Charlie & The Nightcats Shadow Of The Blues CD (1998)
Rising Son album
 $15.05 
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
Little Charlie & the Nightcats' seventh album for Alligator found the group at the top of its game, sharp songwriting combining with the expert playing of a group that has spent years on the road honing its craft. Rick Estrin's sleazy used-car-salesman-as-blues-singer persona comes shining through on ...
| | Eric Sardinas Treat Me Right CD (1999)
Rising Son CD music
$13.59
If you buy into all the hype and the look, then all your standard journalistic clichés about "a man playing like he was possessed" would certainly seem to apply in the case of this record. Eric Sardinas has only one groove, and that's the one with the pedal put firmly to the metal. Playing electric Dobro gives his sound ...

| | Jimmy D Lane Long Gone CD (1997)
Rising Son songs
$15.79 
A flexible bluesman, Jimmy D. Lane can handle straight-ahead Chicago blues as proficiently as he handles blues-rock; Long Gone is a fine example of the latter. Increasing the volume, the singer/guitarist shows his appreciation of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan on ...
| | Jimmy D Lane Legacy CD (1998)
Rising Son album
$15.79 
When your father was the late Chicago blues and Chess Records icon Jimmy Rogers (not to be confused with pioneering country singer Jimmie Rodgers), some would argue that you have a hell of a lot to live up to. But the question "How does Jimmy D. Lane compare to Jimmy Rogers?" is both unrealistic and unfair -- it would be like expecting Ravi Coltrane to accomplish what John Coltrane accomplished, or expecting Hank Williams, Jr. to be another Hank Williams, Sr. Besides, Lane is a fine Chicago bluesman in his own right. With Rogers making a guest appearance on "One Room Country Shack" and Muddy Waters' "Another Mule Kicking in Your Stall," listeners ...
| | Hubert Sumlin About Them Shoes CD (2003)
Rising Son CD music
$14.45
One of the key architects of the Chicago blues sound, guitar master Hubert Sumlin is probably best known for his wiry, angular phases on Howlin' Wolf classics like "Smokestack Lightnin'" and "I Asked for Water." But Sumlin also worked with Muddy Waters, and ABOUT THEM SHOES pays overt homage to Chicago's favorite blues son with a set list full of Waters's ...

Rising Son music CDs
$13.15
In 1997, Document released a 24-track grab bag of rare female blues recordings from the 1920s, presented as a coda to the label's expansive series of Female Blues Singers compilations containing material dating exclusively from the years 1920-1930. In 1998, Document followed suit with a second volume of Female Blues: The Remaining Titles, this time focusing on the years 1938-1949 to top off some of the company's blues, barrelhouse, swing, and early R&B collections. Document 1528 is a decidedly pungent sampler that ...
