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.

Nashville City Blues
James Talley Nashville City Blues CD  (2000)

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues songs
CD $13.79  Audio Samples
For the uninitiated, placing an album like Nashville City Blues in the CD player will be a pleasant surprise. Pleasant because it is a country album that, despite its title, has nothing to do with Nashville, and pleasant because James Talley's approach to country is shot through with the blues. There are no retro-honky tonk songs in sight, and while Talley does wear a hat on the CD cover, it isn't a cowboy hat. The album kicks off with the title cut, a rocking kiss-off to Nashville and all it's cookie-cutter sameness. "I've Seen the Bear" is a long-running narrative with a late-night feel and insightful observations, while "Workin' for Wages" lays down a few honest words about the blue-collar life. "You Can't Get There From Here" and "House Right Down the Road" are fun rockers that give Talley a chance to cut loose with some nice guitar work. A number of songs like "Don't You Feel Low Down" and "If It Wasn't for the Blues" emphasize the "blues" in the album's title. The arrangements throughout Nashville City Blues are pure country, meaning guitar, mandolin, steel, Dobro, and an occasional piano. The instruments blend well together, and the overall production is spare. Talley, who has penned all of the songs, writes intelligent lyrics and has a pleasant singing voice. He remembers and celebrates ...
Earth & Sky
Graham Nash Earth & Sky CD  (1980) Import; Digipak

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues album
CD $23.75  3.3 stars
EARTH & SKY, the 1980 release from Graham Nash, features 10 tracks and includes guest spots from Joe Walsh, Jackson Brown, Stephen Stills, and David Crosby. After a seven-year hiatus, Graham Nash returned to his solo career on Earth & Sky. While much of the material may have originated as an on-again/off-again collaboration with David Crosby (guitar/vocals), by the time the LP hit the racks in 1980 there were only traces of Crosby's input scattered throughout. One primary contribution highlighting the pair is the organic and acoustic "Out ...
Stand Up & Fight
Quartz Stand Up & Fight CD  (1980) (Import) Bonus Track; United Kingdom

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues CD music
CD $15.35  5 stars Top 500
Originally released in 1980, this 2004 release from British heavy metal act, Quartz, features nine tracks, including "Stoking Up The Fires Of Hell ", and "Questions". Stand up and Fight was late-'70s hard rockers Quartz's calculated attempt to revive their ailing career by jumping the New Wave of British Heavy Metal bandwagon. And, therefore, everything about it -- from its song titles ("Revenge," "Stoking the Fires of Hell," etc.), to its Molly Hatchet-approved cover art -- was geared to appeasing a younger generation of fans, most of whom were indeed unaware of the group's earlier misfires. As it happened, though, Quartz had no such luck and the kids ...
Mindstate
Philly, Pete & Perquisite Mindstate CD  (2005) Digipak

Real Folk Blues/More Real Folk Blues music CDs
CD $11.05  4 stars Audio Samples
The most amazing thing about Pete Philly & Perquisite's debut record, Mind.State, is that despite the laid-back beats, the jazz saxophone, the guest appearance by Talib Kweli, the East Coast groove à la Native Tongues, is that the duo is actually from the Netherlands, and not some grimy U.S. metropolis. But both MC Pete Philly and producer/arranger Perquisite must have studied their hip-hop idols carefully, because they sound authentically American. Mind.State, which was first released in Europe in 2005, is a kind of loose concept album, with each song (minus the intro) describing an emotion that is put into context and explained by the MC's ...
