| | Morris Pejoe Wrapped In My Baby CD Morris Pejoe Discography of CDs
These are the famous basement rehearsal tapes that producer Al Smith conducted for United Records in 1954. The Pejoe sides feature a dead-on rocking "Let's Get High" (heard here in two takes) with a droning sax section and his own distorted guitar work fueling originals like "May Bea," "You Messed Up," "Baby, You Know That's Wrong," "Move It on Out and Go" and "Treat Me the Same." A later, two-song session for Atomic H from late 1959-1960 is also included. The Spires sides find him working in the same gutbucket territory as his two singles for Chess and Chance in the early '50s with "Moody This Morning," "Dark and Stormy Night," "You Can't Tell" and the title track (the latter two featuring vocals by pianist Willie "Long Time" Smith) all being well worthy of reissuance. Excellent updated liner notes by Bill Dahl make this a Chicago blues rarity that's well worth tracking down. ~ Cub Koda

The boastful title is no exaggeration; this is a welcome return for the classic Chicago blues sideman, who, primarily because of the misfortune of his music being exploited by other musicians, took a self-imposed retirement for nearly 30 years. It's especially rewarding since Williams -- whose work you hear on early Howlin' ...

Wrapped In My Baby music CDs
$13.29
Like John Lee Hooker, Memphis Slim was very much a label-hopper -- from the '40s to the '80s, it was safe to assume that the singer/pianist wouldn't stay at one label for too long. In the '50s, Slim did some of his best work for United, a Chicago-based indie whose catalog has since been acquired by Delmark (another Windy City label). Slim's United period of 1952-1954 is the focus of The Come Back, a 20-track collection that Delmark assembled in 2002. This is a blues CD that has both jazz and rock appeal. Slim, like Jimmy ...

Wrapped In My Baby songs
$12.59
Kelly Richey has a voice that's perfect for blues-rock. No one will accuse the Cincinnati, OH-based singer/guitarist (who is originally from Kentucky) of having a pretty or smooth voice -- she has one of those rugged, gritty, whiskey-soaked voices that blues-rockers are known for, and that voice serves her impressively well on Sending Me Angels. This excellent CD doesn't cater to blues purists; not everything on Sending Me Angels has 12 bars. But everything on Sending Me Angels does have a wealth of blues feeling; that is true whether Richey is embracing blues-rock ("Lifetime Guarantee," "Nothin' to Do With Love," and "All the Help I Can Get"), roots rock ("Now You Need Me"), or blue-eyed soul "Sending Me Angels"). Richey is especially compelling on Nina Simone's "Nobody's Fault but Mine"; instead of trying to provide a carbon copy of Simone's version (which would have been pointless), Richey is wise enough to put her own stamp on the song. Richey brings toughness and grit to these performances, but she also brings a lot of vulnerability and warmth to the table. Sending Me Angels is an album in which blues, rock, and soul are all important parts of the picture; it's also an album that is without a dull moment. ~ Alex Henderson
