Sunday morning listening: Antone's: Bringing You the Best in Blues. A very cool compilation with everyone from Buddy Guy to Lou Ann Barton to Otis Rush (performing ‘Double Trouble’ the song SRV named his band after…). Wicked good record.

Saturday morning listening: Butterfield. There is a remarkable Paul Butterfield documentary you can watch for free on TubiTV. I watched it this week & immediately ordered this outstanding (& cheap) set of the first five records. Imperative blues.

Saturday morning listening: Elton & Leon! I heard two versions of A Song For You yesterday and was reminded of Leon’s genius. This is a record that I have to listen to frequently to keep all things good.

Sunday morning listening: BB King. Live In Cook County Jail. An absolutely stunning record from 71. The prisoners applause then loud booing for the warden in the introduction still makes me laugh. Essential listening.

Tuesday morning listening: Sonny Terry… again. I might be in a mood. Technically half this record is Sonny & Brownie, the other half is Sonny & Lightnin' Hopkins. Not too shabby.

Saturday morning listening: Blues Traveler. Travelers and Thieves is their second studio album, released in 91. This one is (I’m told) an extremely limited two-CD pressing - only 10,000 made. The bonus EP features live tracks, one with Carlos Santana. Superb.
