Junior Kimbrough & The Soul Blues Boys - All Night Long (1992)

This is legit...

All of it.


From the 1991 film "Deep Blues," written and narrated by musicologist Robert Palmer. Highly recommended:

In the down and dirty department I'm immediately reminded of romance.

It's on The Healer album. I gotts it on vinyl and just did a quick and dirty comparison to the You Tube link. The vinyl sounds better. Just sayin'.

Doug Clark & The Hot Nuts - Roly Poly

I You Tubed 'old blues' and immediately found something maybe a little more along the lines of what you're after. Even though The Blues is by far my favorite music, I'm surprisingly limited in my exposure to it. I blame my association with white people for that.

Look for songs by Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Lucille Bogan, and Lil Johnson. Of course Koko Taylor's version of Pitch A Wang Dang Doodle is a classic

"Too Drunk..."

"Too Drunk..."

Dead Kennedys, wudnit?

that's correct; originally performed by the Dead Kenedy's, written by Jello Biafra (lyrics) & East Bay Ray (music).

Nouvelle Vague is a French/Portuguese combo, specializing in New Wave covers of rock/punk bands. Here's a cover of The Cramps tune, Human Fly.

Now a pair from the McKinley "Muddy Waters" Morganfield boys. The father was a bit of a philanderer, so I thought this would fit in with the theme. The first from the eldest, Larry Williams [aka Mud Morganfield], has his fathers vocal styling's down to a T.

... and the second from Big Bill Morganfield, his youngest son. Bill plays lead guitar competently, writes most of his songs with 6 albums under his belt and has a unique voice all of his own. Definitely worth checking out. I highly recommend his Ramblin' Mind (*****) & Blues In The Blood (****) & Rising Son (****) albums to start off.
