 The Daily Chat

A chatbox where we can post comments and have discussions on artists & songs. However, if you just want to say thank you for a particular post then please continue using the usual comment box located below each post.

Today's 'Assorted Recordings - Blues, R&B, Soul & Gospel Volume 56' brings you 21 rocking blues, R&B and Soul, dating from Ivory Joe Hunter's "Boogin' In The Rain" recorded for 4-Star in 1947, up to 1989 with Bettye LaVette's soulful "Whole Lotta Lonely". Others here for your listening pleasure include: Billie Holiday, Elmore James, Solomon Burke, Cal Green, King Curtis, Little Esther, and a few other fine singers.  

Assorted Best Of Jazz Volume 52 continues with specific themes, this time 'A Handful Of Great Jazz Drummers': Idris Muhammad, Max Roach, Buddy Rich, Art Blakey, Billy Cobham, Gene Krupa, being just a few of the great jazz drummers featured on this compilation.

And 'Albums That Deserve Another Listen' today brings you Jimmy Reed's excellent all-instrumental album "Jimmy Reed Plays Twelve String Guitar Blues", complete with a tongue-in-cheek account of that album's rise in popularity among the early blues fans of the 1960s.

As always my friends, dig in, and enjoy.
