| | Blues At Midnight CD (2003)
 $14.29  
In several important respects, Blues at Midnight is what an album by a major septuagenarian blues singer should be. The production is straight-ahead and dignified, and very much in Bland's time-honored tributary about halfway between blues and soul, with plenty ...

$14.15

| Members Only CD (1985)
$13.89
Bland's first album for Malaco is a deliberately retro affair, and all the better for it. The veteran bluesman is in good voice throughout; he seems positively energized by the songs, in particular the commercially successful title tune, which has ...
|
| Midnight Run CD (1989)
$13.89 
As the title (perhaps inspired by the DeNiro film of the previous year) suggests, "Midnight Run" has a decidedly late-night feel to it. It's full of the sort of '60s Southern soul and blues songs you might hear in a ...

| First Class Blues CD (1987)
$14.25
Digitally remastered by M.C. Rather (Custom Mastering, Nashville, Tennessee).

| Blues You Can Use CD (1987)
$14.09

$13.89

Bobby "blue" Bland Biography
Bobby "Blue" Bland is regarded as one of the greatest singers in the blues world. Growing up in Memphis, he was influenced by gospel and country as well as blues, and his style has always shown a broader scope than that of most bluesmen. Early on he worked as a valet/driver for B.B. King, but eventually the two men would work together as peers. Bland began recording in the early '50s, but it was his '60s recordings, including the classics "I Pity the Fool" and "Turn on Your Lovelight" that would make him immortal. Among blues musicians his influence is seminal, and in the rock world, everyone from Eric Clapton to the Grateful Dead has reverently covered Bland's material.
