 (1 Customer Review)
The years 1969 and 1970 were busy ones for B.B. King. When he wasn't playing one of his 300-plus gigs, King was in the studio laying down tracks that included "The Thrill Is Gone," his only Top 20 hit. 1970's INDIANOLA MISSISSIPPI SEEDS was a record that fit in well with the musical climate of the time. Up and coming artists such as Carole King and Leon Russell contributed their talents to these predominantly B.B. King-penned numbers.
The female King plays piano throughout, giving "You're Still My Woman" an Aretha Franklin flavor whereas "Until I'm Dead And Cold" is infused with a sanctified air thanks to her playing and the inclusion of a brassy horn section. No slouch on the eighty-eights himself, Russell (along with a then unknown Joe Walsh) provides funky accompaniment on "Ask Me No Questions" and the instrumental "King's Special." The blues legend himself lays Lucille aside long enough to give himself solo piano accompaniment on the minute and a half "Nobody Love Me But My Mother." Leon Russell's biggest contribution to INDIANOLA is of his oft-recorded "Hummingbird." Along with playing piano, the musically gifted Okie also conducts a string section and gospel-inspired chorus of female back-up singers that includes Merry Clayton.
INDIANOLA MISSISSIPPI SEEDS was King's first album on ABC.

Rolling Stone (12/24/70, p.54) - "...The album displays the vital and ever-developing nature of this man King, who has been playing and wailing the blues for more than 20 of his 45 years..."
Q (9/95, p.141) - 3 Stars - Good - "...Eagle Joe Walsh and Carole King are in the supporting cast and it's fine, if hardly packed with surprises..."

Indianola Mississippi Seeds CD music
$9.85 
HOODOO MAN BLUES is one of the great albums from the era of classic Chicago blues. Though usually overshadowed by mid-century Chicago legends like Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, Junior Wells ranks among the most dynamic and satisfying performers of the milieu, and his explosive harmonica playing and charismatic vocals come through like gangbusters on this 1965 release. The record has the added distinction of being one of the first long-playing blues albums to hit the scene (blues had largely been confined to 45s prior to its ...

BIOGRAPHY:Of Angels is a group of motivated and talented musicians with one ultimate goal: To create music that incites an emotionally charged response in it\'s listeners. To open a window that leads into the lives of the members of the band, and to inspire a reaction to their cause. What does Of Angels mean exactly? It is the realization that there are elements within human existence that are beyond our control, forces that cannot be explained... it is the fact that we are all creations of a supernatural power, or that we are all \"Of Angels\".Of Angels formed in March of 2006, and has been striving forward ever since. Within the first two months, they shared the stage with many established Canadian independent bands, such as A Textbook Tragedy, The Gorgeous, Shotgun Rules, Kincaide, Drive By Punch, Mapping The Escape and Glory Nights. The band spent the summer of 2006 crafting their debut EP titled, “The Man, The Whistler”. Endless hours of hard work and dedication were poured into the making of this EP, which contains three songs that are both energetic, yet seemingly melodic. All of the songs were written, produced, and recorded by the band itself, insuring that their creative vision was completely upheld. After only a few shows following the release of their EP, they have sold over 500 EP’s, and landed a spot opening the Edmonton Taste of Chaos show at the Shaw Conference Center.The Of Angels sound encompasses elements from many different genres: from fast paced ...
