The title King Of The Delta Blues is usually reserved for Robert Johnson, generally considered to be one of the 20th century's most influential blues performers. But the musician who was Johnson's biggest influence (and who ended up outliving him by five decades) was the extraordinary singer and guitarist Son House. Made in 1942 by famed folklorist Alan Lomax for the Library of Congress, these sides were House's first recordings since releasing four songs for Paramount in 1930. In a set of astonishing power, he is often accompanied by mandolin, harmonica, and second guitar, plus various atmospheric background noises like the sound of a train whistle (the field transcriptions were made on a portable recording device in rural Mississippi). But it's the later tracks featuring the master musician performing solo, like "Depot Blues" and "The Pony Blues," that best capture his remarkable authority and charisma, displaying a youthful vitality absent from his next recording (and first full-length album), FATHER OF THE DELTA BLUES, made some two decades later.
Personnel: Son House (vocals, guitar).

King Of The Delta Blues songs
$14.79 Recorded between 1955 and 1968. Includes liner notes by Miles Perlich.
Though it includes just one track originally released on Blue Note (Kenny Dorham's "Afrodisia"), Latino Blue is a superb collection of Latin jazz spanning the late '50s to the late '60s. The producer and compiler, Miles Perlich, decided to reissue highlights from some of the rarer Cubop sessions that lie in the vaults of Blue Note's parent label, Capitol -- from such labels as World Pacific, Roulette, Pacific Jazz, Roost, Jubilee, and others. As a result, listeners are treated to excellent rare material from Willie Bobo ("Trinidad," from his 1964 LP Let's Go Bobo! on Roulette), Joe Torres ("Soul Cha, La Bruja Negra" from a 1968 LP for World Pacific), the Jazz Crusaders ("Agua Dulce" from 1965's Chile Con Soul), Candido ("Long Long Summer, Toccata" with arrangements ...

| | Chris Daniels 10 CD (2005)
King Of The Delta Blues songs
$12.25 Colorado's long-standing royalty of rootsy funk, Chris Daniels & the Kings are back with their new recording, 10. It is the Kings signature-sound: smoking at BBQ temperature, with a brassy, blues-rocking sound that can trace its roots to somewhere between Memphis, New Orleans and Colorado. It's the band's most fun-filled recording of its 21-year history ("The best funky blues coming out of the States," according to Muziekcafe, Amsterdam's number one live rock & blues show on TROS Radio Holland!)10's originals include a pair of prime party numbers ( "Howlin' at the Moon" and "Bluz Cruz"), the feel-good ("Come On Sit in my Kitchen") and a worldly ode ("It's All Good") that turns the phrase on its ear. 10's covers include Howlin' Wolf's ( and Electric Flag classic) "Killin' Floor," the blue-eyed funk of "Who's Makin' Love," a horn-sectioned cover of Stevie Ray Vaughn's "Crossfire," ...
