| | Best Of Southern Blues CD
It's a bit absurd to think that this brief ten-song collection actually features the best of Southern blues, although all of the tracks included are certainly good ones, particularly Lightnin' Hopkins' "Found My Baby Crying," a loping version of Elmore James doing his signature "Dust My Broom" and a powerful "My Baby" by Lowell Fulson. Throw in solid cuts by Memphis Slim, T-Bone Walker and Bobby Rush and a nice little sequence takes shape, but it hardly adds up to an essential Southern blues record. ~ Steve Leggett

Best Of Southern Blues music CDs
$12.19 With this album, years of personnel changes ended for Fleetwood Mac with the departure of guitarist Bob Welch. The remaining core of the group (Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Christine McVie) invited guitarist/vocalist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks to join, and thus began the most commercially successful period for Fleetwood Mac. With 3 strong songwriters in Nicks, Buckingham and Christine McVie, FLEETWOOD MAC was their first number-1 album.
It's unfair to say that Fleetwood Mac had no pop pretensions prior to the addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the lineup in 1975. When they were lead by Bob Welch they often flirted with pop, even recording the first version of the unabashedly smooth and sappy "Sentimental Lady," which would later be one of the defining soft rock hits of the late '70s. Still, there's no denying that ...
| | Eddie Hinton Very Extremely Dangerous CD (1978)
Best Of Southern Blues songs
$12.59 Eddie Hinton's 1978 debut came more than a decade after the kudos he received for his songwriting and his session work as a guitarist. He played guitar on countless sessions as the guitarist at the famed Muscle Shoals studio in northern Alabama and everyone from Bobby Womack to Aretha Franklin recorded his songs. When it came time to make an album of his own, he did so at the same studio, with other topflight players comprising the Muscle Shoals rhythm and horn sections.
Hinton sings nine originals here and one by his main influence, Otis Redding ("Shout Bamalama"). Hinton sought to imbue his singing with the same rich emotional presence as Redding's--but has a voice ...
| | Vaughan, Stevie Ray & Double Trouble Greatest Hits CD (1995)
Best Of Southern Blues album
$6.25 Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble: Stevie Ray Vaughan (vocals, guitar); Reese Wynans (keyboards); Tommy Shannon (bass); Chris Layton (drums); Doyle Bramhall.
When Stevie Ray Vaughan's helicopter crashed in August 1990, the world lost more than just a musical giant. Stevie Ray's short life contained all the elements of a hero's journey--from obscurity, through adversity, to glory. His meteoric rise in the public's eye began after a stellar performance at the 1982 Montreaux Jazz Festival, which led to a gig with David Bowie (on LET'S DANCE) and a demo that ended up becoming TEXAS FLOOD, an outstanding debut from one of the most influential blues artists ever to call Texas home.
Five years after his passing, Vaughan is honored with a GREATEST HITS collection, gathering songs from each phase of his recording career. From that first album comes ...
| | Long John Baldry It Ain't Easy CD (1971) Bonus Tracks; England; Remastered
Best Of Southern Blues CD music
$11.05 It Ain't Easy features a British blues/rock lineup befitting the man behind the Long John Baldry moniker. This album returns Baldry to a decidedly edgier and hipper audience, with a literal cast of all-stars on some of the more adventurous material he had covered to date. This is no doubt due, at least in part, to the involvement of rock superstars Rod Stewart and Elton John. (In fact, John confesses to have taken the last name in his stage moniker from Baldry's first.) Among their contributions to the project, Stewart and Elton divided the production tasks -- each taking a side of the original album. Immediately, Baldry sheds the MOR blue-eyed pop soul image. The backing band on Stewart's side include fellow Face and future Rolling Stone, Ron Wood, on electric guitar and acoustic guitarist Sam Mitchell, who appeared on many of Stewart's ...
| | Todd Rundgren Todd CD (1974)
Best Of Southern Blues music CDs
$7.59 Keyboards dominate the arrangements, with Rundgren, longtime cohort Mark "Moogy" Klingman, and session-man Ralph Schuckett all contributing piano, organ, and vintage '70s-style clavinet. The songs themselves are quirkier and more exploratory than earlier efforts, with the progressive and fusion influences that would dominate Rundgren's forthcoming band Utopia rearing their heads. Yet, at its best, TODD still comes across as a pop album, with ...

OK, alright, that's it. We really mean it this time. The Ramones are gone for good. No more leather jackets, two-minute songs or counting off "1-2-3-4." After 22 years, 2263 shows, 19 albums and eight members, the band credited with kicking off the punk revolution called it quits. WE'RE OUTTA HERE is their final farewell. Recorded in Los Angeles, this live album packs together 32 songs including Ramones classics ("Blitzkrieg ...
