Ry Cooder

Album of the Week - 5-20-23

Afternoon folks!

Well, there's a bunch of good stuff this week. There's some zydeco to get things rolling with a compilation of Clifton Chenier's Arhoolie recordings. After that Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder do their best impression of Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee - not to be missed! Doc Watson follows up with a mid-60's album and we change pace after that with Osibisa. Osibisa is a band from Ghana and worth a listen. Following that there's some rock with Foghat and some rock/prog with The Tubes to finish things off.

Enjoy!

Album of the Week - 10-29-22

Afternoon folks!

Well, here comes another mess of good music. There's a greatest hits album from Louis Jordan and a compilation of great stuff from the ABC/Bluesway label. There's a classic blues-rock album from John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers that features Peter Green and John McVie before they formed Fleetwood Mac (the good, early version), there's a live (recorded in '72) album from Savoy Brown and an early 70's album from Paul Butterfield. The diversity this week is provided by Goose Creek Symphony, Ry Cooder and Steeleye Span.

Enjoy!
