The Jack White produced Wanda Jackson album released earlier this year entitled "The Party Ain't Over".
Many of you will hopefully have heard the track Ricky played on Sunday morning --"Shakin' All Over". This is a good place to start.
I must say that jumped out at me, great cover. Been giving it some high rotation on Spotify. Ricky Ross played more than a few blinders during his tenure.
Have finally checked out the Lion's Roar track by First Aid Kit. Very nice. Will have to check out their album due for release in January. Nice one johnh.
Nice track mindcancy, I'll have to check this cd out. I missed this album although I bought 3 of her albums on BMG Private released before this album came out. Life, Love & the Blues 1998 - Matriarch Of The Blues 2000 and Blue Gardenia in 2001. All patchy albums but with their moments.
The Fame Studio Story and The Flash Records Story (both from Ace) have been sampled on the Paul Jones and Bob Shows recently. It's add to cart the both for me
I see that all the Etta James albums mentioned above now appear all together on the excellent Original Album Classics series (5cd box set for about £11.99). I do so love this idea from the likes of Sony and Rhino. Great value, no frills little box sets. Talking about Etta James, it looks as if I'll have to get her latest offering THE DREAMER, which might be her last.
Still can't stop playing it - at high volume The Dickey Betts Band - Duane's Tune From the album Pattern Disruptive or the box set Dreams etc etc Class
How much longer can I hold out before buying the Dawes album? (another nice track on the Uncut cd). Black Joe Lewis - Sway, Beta Hector - Angie and Aloe Blacc - I Got The Blues (from the Mojo cd) wow. I've probably bought more 'new' music this year than I've done for many years. 2011 has been a good un
The tracks...Every Girl, 1968, Whole Damn Town and Shreveport, from the excellent Turnpike Troubadours album Diamonds and Gasoline
I did a site search to see if the Turnpike Troubadours showed up here, thought I remembered the name and found this. I logged on to a website this afternoon and it told me I recently listened to 7 & 7 by the T.T.; I hadn't,it must have popped up on autoplay or something, but I hadn't sought it out or listened. That made me curious so I then went and listened to it. Also found a couple of others by them, including Every Girl.
They seem a bit overlooked, thought they sound good, haven't really heard anything about them.
I have to agree with you Bob, The Fame Studios Story 1961-1973 is pure class. Along with the Aretha Franklin track check out - Arthur Alexander - You Better Move On Wilson Pickett - Hey Jude (Duane Allman on guitar) James Govan - Wanted, Lover Etta James - I Got You Babe Candi Staton - I'm Just A Prisoner George Jackson - Find 'Em Fool 'Em Naming just a few as I'm still getting into it all. Have just added to cart the other Fame releases by Candi Staton and George Jackson as I can't get enough of this kinda stuff at the moment
From Texas band The Washers new album, "Tired Eyes", the catchy hook laden "Two Left Feet" with it's wonderfully infectious lead guitar, and also the track "Here In Texas".
I certainly did, thank you. It was tremendous. This site must have magic properties. You just post a favourite song and a guardian angel sorts it for you. Now, Todd Snider at the Borderline.....
Dear Angel of the North (accent suits) Please can you fix it for me to hear 'Tillamook County Jail' I've been ever such a good boy.
The Bowerbirds - Tuck The Darkness In - heard it on Guy Garvey's excellent "Finest Hour". The album comes out in a couple of weeks, sounds very "Whispery" - enjoy:
Loved Kurt Vile's 'Smoke Ring For My Halo' album to bits last year Merton, without a doubt one of my albums of the year and rather a shame his Bobness never latched onto it.
Always had a large soft spot for the Bowerbirds Johnh and deeply regret missing them live last time around a couple of years ago.
Unfortunately I've had to miss quite a lot over the last year due to the current financial climate, the latest being Kathleen Edwards last night. Forgive me whisperers but my pips are squeaking.
The Dead's "China Cat Sunflower" segue into "I Know You Rider" is exquisite and something I have loved for a long time now. That whole second side of "Europe 72" is brilliant from "Jack Straw" through "You Win Again" to the aformentioned songs, just wonderful, timeless music.
"Dress of Laces" Lyle Lovett from "Release Me" "Come On Up Mississippi" Nanci Griffith from "Intersection" "Hopkinsville"[/red] Darrell Scott from "The Long Ride Home" are just a few of the joys from current releases getting played a lot around here.
Love the Lyle Lovett track johng. The forgotten man of 'if you can call it country'. After giving the album a listen it's a bit of a throwback to the 'And His Large Band' album of 89. A most deffo add to cart for me. Again wouldn't have given this album a thought if you hadn't mentioned it here.
John , China Cat Sunflower into I know you Rider (great guitar work at the end!)is one of my favourites of all time. I was lucky enough that they played the very same when I saw them at The Rainbow and at Wembley .I also love the version of Morning Dew (great guitar work on the end !) on the Europe triple and am going to get it out right now..I also love the Althea version on Without a net CD.
From 'Chimes Of Freedom - The Songs Of Bob Dylan' Jackson Browne - 'Love Minus Zero/No Limit' Queens Of The Stone Age - 'Outlaw Blues' Also the title track from Tom Russell's 'Mesabi'
And I very much enjoyed Jackson Browne 'Sky Blue And Black' on last nights show. I'd forgotton just how good that track is.
I recently discovered this track, covered by Sunny Sweeney, on The Badlands internet radio station. The original is almost as good as the cover, but Sweeney's vocal nails it. Can't find her version on the wbe anywhere so here's Lacey J Dalton's cut:
There's a cracking version of the Fleetwood Mac song BIG LOVE on the new Jim Moray album SKULK. Just waitin' for Postman Polska to drop it through the letter box.
I've fallen in love with Jeff Black's "What I Would Not do" that Bob played on last week's BHC show. Have a number finger from repeated pressing and holding of rewind on my copy of the last week's show on my phone

God bless the boys, who make the noise, on 16th Avenue!
Wow thanks for the link Pauly C that is so good.I've got the Sunny Sweeney version but I have to say that this sounds just as good if not better.You're a goodun for posting this.
The new Brendan Benson album "What Kind of World" is out on Chrysalis in the next few days. A taster appears on the new May 2012 Word Magazine covermounted CD called "Pretty Baby". Described as steamy and swampy (indeed it is) it bears all the hallmarks of his finest input to his work with The Raconteurs.
Finally, here is one of the coolest blues outings ever recorded. Organic Grooves with "Banal Reality" Enjoy this YouTube of it.............. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbvPWIXdIuk
All the very best from Mindcandy Keep on Truckin'...........................
An excellent evening at the Jazz Cafe on Friday, already spendidly reviewed elsewhere by Jela, has shaped my weekend listening - and I've really enjoyed it! Dave Alvin - Harlan County Line ZZ Top - My Head's In Mississippi James McMurtry - Freeway View Rory Gallagher - Messin' With The Kid Little Feat - Spanish Moon Captain Beefheart - Big Eyed Beans From Venus Tony Joe White - As The Crow Flies Jason Isbell - Codeine
From the Luke Roberts cd The Iron Gates At Throop And Newport, the tracks HIS SONG and OLD FASHIONED WOMAN. Good album and a bit of a grower.Gloomsville

Her agent apparently thinks there is no hope so released that message.
.I also love the Althea version on Without a net CD.
