Sam Cooke Portrait Of A Legend: 1951-64 CD (2003)

Houston Is The Place To Be album

$14.75

Contains an untitled hidden track which follows "Jesus Gave Me Water." Sam Cooke was a giant not just in the soul world, but in the larger scheme of American music. His melding of soul, gospel, and pop was as trenchant as it was revolutionary and influential. This unbeatable 30-song compilation touches on every aspect of this phenomenally gifted singer-songwriter's career. The romantic croon of "You Send Me" shares space with the mournful "Sad Mood," the romping "Twistin' the Night Away," and the moving social/spiritual statement "A Change Is Gonna Come" (this compilation is one of the rare collections to have this stirring and sought-after track). For pure fun, it's hard to beat the humor-filled "Another Saturday Night." Perhaps the master stroke, though, is "Havin' a Party." As no less esteemed a personage than Bruce Springsteen once observed, it's an ostensibly celebratory song that seems to ...

Lou Pride Keep On Believing CD (2005)

Houston Is The Place To Be CD music

$12.89

Once an under-recorded soul bluesman, Lou Pride is making up for lost time. This 2005 release is his third album of predominantly new and original material since 2000, not including a terrific set of 1970-1973 sides reissued by Severn in 2003. Pride kicks off with "Midnight Call," one of his best songs and a perfect indication of his Southern soul/blues roots. There is a bit of Al Green's Hi rhythm section in the thumping drums and longtime associate Benjie Porecki's powerful Hammond B-3. Post-heart attack, Pride's voice remains in fine form, bending notes and sliding from a gruff bottom to a sweet upper register like a combination of Howard Tate, Bobby Bland, and Johnnie Taylor. Although the 12 originals all written or co-written by Pride are uniformly solid, it's on Bob Marley's "Waiting in Vain," the disc's only cover, that Pride finds the blues by tapping outside material, possibly something he should do more often. A remake of his 1972 hit "I'm Com'un Home in the Morn'un" and horn arrangements by the great Willie Henderson bolster the retro production. The backing vocalists, horns, and live-in-the-studio sound all ...

Mississippi Heat One Eye Open: Live At Rosa's Lounge, Chicago CD (2005)

Houston Is The Place To Be music CDs

$12.45

Mississippi Heat is an entertaining and versatile blues combo headed by harmonica player Pierre Lacocque. Whether playing lowdown blues, occasional instrumentals, blues ballads, or more R&B-ish material, Mississippi Heat is full of fire and passion. In addition to Lacocque (who wrote five of the songs on this set), the band features a fine female singer in Inetta Visor, an intense guitarist in Max Valldeneu, and a fine rhythm section propelled by organist-keyboardist Chris Cameron. On this particular live outing, Lurrie Bell makes guest appearances on guitar and takes two excellent vocals. Chicago blues fans will definitely want to be made aware of both Mississippi Heat and this highly enjoyable CD. ~ Scott Yanow The blues started out Southern, rural, and acoustic but ended up becoming Northern, urban, and electric -- and things went full circle when bluesmen on the Southern chitlin' circuit became influenced by the music that was coming from John Lee Hooker ...

Phantom Blues Band Out Of The Shadows CD (2006)

Houston Is The Place To Be songs

$13.79

The Phantom Blues Band were originally brought together to back Taj Mahal on his 1993 album Dancing the Blues. After 13 years of occasional tours both with and without Mahal, the group finally debuted on its own with Out of the Shadows, a genial set of blues-rock workouts. The heart of the seven-player band is the combo of organist Mike Finnigan and lead guitarist Johnny Lee Schell, who trade vocals and solos throughout Out of the Shadows; Austin saxophone legend Joe Sublett makes his presence felt as well. The 15 ...
