Originally released on Chess Records. Includes liner notes by Chris Morris and Ralph Bass.

For these two albums, recorded in the mid-'60s, the "real folk" appellation is not quite accurate. The title was also applied to contemporaneous releases by Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williamson, and Muddy Waters as a Chess Records marketing ploy. These 18 songs are electric and blistering, edgy like a coiled snake. When Hooker slips into his ferocious howl--as he does on "Stella Mae"--it can make the hairs on your neck stand up. He can also keep a slow pace simmering with relentless fire. Hooker's idiosyncratic phrasing and tempos made him most effective as a solo act during the early years of his career. For these sessions producer Ralph Bass successfully matched players to Hooker's quirky sensibility, the grooves all perfectly meshing into one organic rhythm contraption.

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues
CD $13.59  Top 100 Audio Samples
San Francisco blues guitar king Joe Louis Walker has been purveying his biting brand of West Coast blues since the '60s, with time off for good behavior, literally (he spent years going "straight" attending school and playing gospel). On BETWEEN A ROCK AND THE BLUES he manages to keep one foot in the L.A. blues he grew up on (T-Bone Walker, Lowell Fulson, et al.) and the other in a more modern sound, both in his songwriting and his impassioned fretwork. On the likes of "Eyes like a Cat" and "Way Too Expensive," Walker's seasoned band whips up a sassy, swinging, old-school jump blues feel, while "Tell Me Why" leans into a classic-sounding Chicago-style shuffle. Walker's voice, still lithe and clear at 58, rings out authoritatively over it all, and his concise, stinging guitar makes no apologies for asserting its dominion over all it surveys. An unplugged stab at Delta blues on "Send You Back" feels less convincing, but other cuts, such as "I'm Tide" and "If There's a Heaven," show off a crunchier, grittier, more rock-inflected guitar tone with a compositional sensibility to match. When Walker taps into this more modern-sounding mode, though, it's important to realize there's no pandering involved. Even though his roots go back way further, he didn't begin establishing his own sound as a solo recording artist until the '80s, so it's entirely natural for his style to have picked up some rock & roll attack along ...

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues
CD $6.19  5 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
The '60s Blues Revival begins here. Calling this album influential is an understatement akin to calling the Grand Canyon a rut; suffice to say that an entire generation of musicians (mostly young and white) heard this and had their lives changed forever. In fact, for at least a year after the album's release in 1965, it was impossible to walk down the hall of any college dorm in America without hearing one of the songs here echoing from somebody's room. Heard today, the thing still packs a wallop. Butterfield's harmonica and vocals are utterly idiomatic, without a hint of minstrelsy. Michael ...

Beausoleil Live! From The Left Coast CD  (1989)

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues
CD $13.89  Audio Samples
Recorded live at The Great American Music Hall, San Francisco, California on May 23 & 24, 1989. This 1990 live album captures Beausoleil doing what it does best: making high-energy music steeped deeply in the Louisiana-bred forms of Cajun and zydeco. There's no evidence here of the more streamlined, modern sound of albums such as BAYOU CADILLAC, and purists will be pleased by the absence of electric guitar and rock-oriented rhythms. Instead, Beausoleil returns to the back porch aesthetic of its earliest recordings, ...
