 (1 Customer Review)
At the time this album was recorded, Jefferson Airplane had expanded from a rock group into something of a San Francisco collective of musicians and launched its own record label, Grunt, necessitating a flow of product. As a result, there was a flurry of releases by the Airplane itself and several offshoots, with each of these records featuring several members of the loose aggregation informally dubbed PERRO (the Planet Earth Rock 'N' Roll Orchestra). Papa John Creach, violinist for the Airplane and its spin-off group, Hot Tuna, was the leader on this set, which featured members of the Airplane (Grace Slick, for example, duets with Creach on the lead-off track, "The Janitor Drives a Cadillac"), Quicksilver Messenger Service, and the Grateful Dead. The result sounds like the Airplane records of the period, with a bit more of Creach's electric violin soaring over the proceedings. ~ William Ruhlmann

The LEGACY OF THE BLUES series is the work of blues and folk archivist Samuel Charters. The 12-volume set, of which this is the final installment, was intended to introduce new audiences to then-contemporary recordings of some of the legends of the older, more rustic style of the blues typified by Hopkins, Robert Pete Williams, Bukka White, and Big Joe Williams. The Hopkins sessions, ...

Adam Zwig, song-smith, musician, psychotherapist and author, was the originator, main song-writer and lead guitarist for Shapeshifter. From 1997-2002 Zwig and Shapeshifter toured the country, scored the radio hit, "My Enemy" and produced an award winning video. They entered the Album Networks' Best Sellers category for CD sales in the Northwest and garnered amazing press reviews where ever they went. Shapeshifter graced the front page of Napster and at one point "My Enemy" was the most downloaded song. Their song "Numb" was on NBC's "Just Deal" for five years. With Shapeshifter, Zwig released 4 albums on Pinch Hit Records in L. A., as well as being on compilation CD's with such notables as Cyress Hill, Elliot Smith and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin. In 2002, Zwig decided to go solo and delve back into his blues and folk roots. At the time, Zwig said, "Playing in a modern rock band is a great experience, has a tribal element to it. You feel like you're in a gang and your taking on the world. But I had always been drawn to the old stuff -- real singer / songwriters that meant business, sang like professional criminals, make you want to drive your car over a cliff, deadly serious, more than just light entertainment, a guide into an altered consciousness of reality, stuff that gave you more of the big picture. Nothing commercial like we were doing. Nothing easy going or just giving the impression of heaviness but without any insight. Like Dylan once said, 'songs about debauched bootleggers, mothers that drowned their own children, Cadillacs that only got five miles to the gallon, floods, union hall fires, darkness and cadavers at the bottom of rivers weren't for radiophiles'. But these were exactly the kinds of songs I was interested in. And at some point, my mind and heart caught fire with these songs. My imagination was ablaze. I'd had a revelation. It had been right under my nose and I hadn't realized it. Almost all the spiritual teachings of all time and everywhere are contained in folk and blues songs. I already knew this about blues but folk was an awakening for me. And it's spoken in a plain-talking and direct way - nothing esoteric, high-faluten or intellectual about it. And it champions the common person and the disenfranchised, marginalized, forgotten and kicked to the curb, the poor and the oppressed. And it speaks spirituality in a home-spun, down to earth, shared, common way, and has a socially minded awareness. Maybe the blues is a bit more physical and folk a bit more social, but they both deal with life, death, God, love, freedom, ecstasy, the universe - the whole shebang. It's all right there with all the real life nuances.! " The result was three critically acclaimed albums. The first, on Conscious Records, was "Pictures of the Gone America" (2002), which seamlessly melds folk style lyrics with a genuine, original sound he called "blue-hop" (an authentic and unique mixture of blues and hip-hop). Portland's Willamette Week said the album..."could perk up ears far beyond Puddletown. Zwig's got chops and brains to his credit and his music fuses blues into a hip-hop groove so smoothly he makes it look like he invented the idea." The album also led to the release of "Live and Unplugged" (2004), a live concert recording.The second, was "Koan" (2005), which maintains ...

| | B B King Blues In My Heart CD (1962) (Import) Japan; Mini LP Sleeve
Papa John Creach CD music
$36.79
Japanese limited edition issue of the album classic in a deluxe, miniaturized LP sleeve replica of the original vinyl album artwork.
It's been speculated that Blues in My Heart was recorded in late 1961 right before B.B. King left Modern for ABC, possibly with everything getting cut in one session. If that was the case, it might account for the grind-it-out feel of these ten small-combo sides (probably with Plas Johnson on sax and Maxwell Davis on keyboards), which are lacking in noteworthy songs, with the possible exception of "Downhearted" (aka "How Blue Can You Get?"). King, of course, brings committed singing and playing to the session; he was too much of ...
