 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.

Here's 3 more good 'uns for your listening pleasure: "Assorted 'Best Of' Blues & R&B Tracks Vol 77" with 21 tracks from Percy Mayfield, Little Joe Blue, Earl Gaines, The Storey Sisters, Tommy Ridgley, and a very early track from Johnny Guitar Watson, recorded in 1952, when he was known as Young John Watson and was playing piano and singing with the Chuck Higgins band in LA.

"Blues, R&B, Soul & Gospel Records" now up to Volume 14 brings you 21 tracks dating from 1941-1973, from the very cream of R&B/Soul singers such as Carla Thomas, Ann Peebles, Nina Simone, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, Syl Johnson, Little Richard, and several other giants of the genre.

And the highly popular "Rockabilly & Early Rock & Roll Recordings" now at Volume 72, today focuses on a very common theme in country/Rockabilly/early R&R recordings with "Rockin' With The Bottle Vol 01 - White Lightnin'", and telling you all about it are: Dwight Pullen, George Jones, Gene Simmons, Wally Willette, Jimmy Patton, and a few other much lesser-known artists.

So dig in my friends and enjoy. And don't forget to take a few seconds to post a comment, just saying thanks or letting me know what you are enjoying most, while waiting for a download to finish.

Finally, my wife and I are getting near the end of our stay here in Perth. Winter is approaching so it's time for us to head back to the tropics. In a couple more days we'll be flying off to Bangkok, where we'll spend a few days sightseeing and R&R before returning to our home in Korat. As I already have many compilations prepared well in advance there shouldn't be any disruptions to the usual posting schedule, but if I'm off the radar for a few days you'll know why.
