Pianist Joe Liggins presented a fairly sophisticated brand of swinging jump blues to jitterbuggers during the early '50s, when his irresistible "Pink Champagne" scaled the R&B charts. Twenty-five of his very best 1950-1954 Specialty sides grace this collection, including a tasty remake of "The Honeydripper;" "Rhythm in the Barnyard," and the syncopated "Going Back to New Orleans" (recently revived by Dr. John). ~ Bill Dahl

| | Duke Robillard Plays Blues: The Rounder Years CD (1997)
Specialty Legend Series songs
$13.95
The title is bound to confuse (and possibly annoy) some blues purists. Except for a handful of straight blues numbers -- including one of the most heartfelt T-Bone Walker tributes ever in "Duke's Mood" -- Duke Robillard Plays Blues: The Rounder Years is mostly a rock-oriented anthology drawn from the post-Roomful of Blues but pre-Fabulous Thunderbirds stage of Robillard's career. No bonus tracks or previously unissued takes -- just reissued material culled from four albums released on Rounder between 1983 and 1991. (Note that Robillard's "Rounder Years" also produced some fantastic swing music, but you won't find any of it here since it's been allocated to the sister compilation Duke Robillard Plays Jazz: The Rounder Years.) The '80s were an interesting decade for Robillard, as he took on a more stripped-down, roots rock (but still bluesy) approach with his trio, the Pleasure Kings, and then headed into that contemporary blues-rock zone ...

Full Blown Mosey are a classic hard rock band from the state of Wyoming. Their music is extremely tight due to having played together for so many years. Kirk Warren, Rocky Harting and Greg Scott have been together since the early 90's playing the best guitar rock around. Kirk Warren (vocals and bass) has one of the most flexible voices and is able to imitate the most classic singers from Bon Scott to Dave Lee Roth. On his own music, the vocals are smooth, articulate and ...
