Blues Day at Arizona Jones

I have had several request to re-upload many of the blues recordings.  So here are a few of them!

Little Charlie and The Nightcats, 7-28-2007


Little Charlie and the Nightcats is a blues band that was founded in 1976 by guitarist Charlie Baty and Vocalist and harmonica player Rick Estrin. They play a mix of Chicago blues, jump blues, swing blues, among other styles. They were started in Berkely CA. I saw them once at a Blues Society show in San Louis Obispo, CA in the early 90s, and it was a real good time! Check this out if you like the blues.  I have had several request to re-upload the link for this.  So here it is.

Roomful Of Blues, 2-03-1996

Roomful Of Blues is an American blues and swing revival big band based in Rhode Island. With a recording career that spans over 40 years. They play a blend of swing, rock and roll, jump blues, boogie-woogie and soul. They have had many different musicians come and go through out the years. They got their start in Westerly, Rhode Island in 1967. This recording came saying it had Ronnie earl, but listening to the introductions, you will hear them say Chris Vachon on guitar. This is a very enjoyable blues show with a big horn section and some fine blues guitar and harmonica. If you like the blues I recommend this recording. I made the cover based on the album cover of the album that they were promoting at the time of the concert called Turn It On Turn It Up.

Junior Wells, 9-16-1966

Junior Wells was raised in Memphis, Arkansas, and by the age of seven could play the harmonica with surprising skill. Junior moved to Chicago and in the early 1950 was playing with some of Chicago's blues greats including Muddy Waters. This is a good recording of one of the most noted harmonica players of his time.

Big Mama Thorton, 1970


Big Mama Thornton - Live 1970 ... Monument of Blues
No venue given.

Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton (December 11, 1926 - July 25, 1984) was an American rhythm and blues singer and songwriter. She was the first to record the hit song "Hound Dog" in 1952. The song was #1 on the Billboard R&B charts for seven weeks.The B-side was "They Call Me Big Mama," and the single sold almost two million copies. Three years later, Elvis Presley recorded his version, based on a version performed by Freddie Bell and the Bellboys. In a similar occurrence, she wrote and recorded "Ball 'n' Chain," which became a hit for her. Janis Joplin later recorded "Ball and Chain," and was a huge success in the late 1960s. She started her recording career in Houston Texas in 1951. Big Mama Thorton's career began to fade in the late 1950s and early 1960s. She left Houston and relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area, where she mostly played local blues clubs. This may be a recording from the San Francisco area.

Black Crowes, Beacon Theater, 3-22-1995 (SBD)


This is my favorite Black Crowes recording.  WHAT MAKES THIS SHOW ESSENTIAL: This show almost never happened as Chris and Rich came to blows before the show.  They were ready to cancel the show, the rest of the tour, and were convinced to make this the last show of the band’s career (cooler heads prevailed afterwards and the tour went on).  It has been said that the opening Cursed Diamond, featuring only Chris and Rich, was the song that saved the band.  You can feel the passion through the whole show.  The next three acoustic songs are great and then the Thorn's progress Jam is great.  And the sound quality is real nice.  If you are a Black Crowes fan this is a must, if you are not then you might be after listening to this.

Superpickers (bluegrass allstars) The Birchmere. 3-03-1990 (SBD)

 
This is one of my favorite bluegrass recordings.  This is one of the best groups of talent you will ever see on one stage at the same time.  All of them could be considered in the discussion for the best at what they do.  Truly an all star line up.   But not only a great group of individuals but they play together as one group so well.  And then we are lucky to have it all in a really great soundboard recording.  It does not get any better than this for bluegrass fans.
