Charlie Patton - Founder of the Delta Blues (1929-1934) [APE]
APE (cue+log+covers) | 300 Mb
Released:1995 | Label:Yazoo (2010) | Genre: Blues

“Charley (a.k.a. Charlie) Patton was the most powerful blues recording artist of all time, considered by many to be the single most important figure in the history of traditional blues. He was a profound shaper and a giant figure in early Mississippi Delta music. The combined power of this vocal and guitar dynamics is unparalleled and he was the Delta's first blues celebrity. Founder contains his most famous blues while the companion album (2001) virtually completes Patton's legacy and includes recently discovered unissued takes. Focusing on the breadth of his repertoire, it evokes a sense of what the earliest blues stylings may have sounded like, and includes bottleneck blues and sanctified songs.”

“Hans Theessink is hailed as "A master of the blues guitar", described by Bo Diddley as "one helluva guitar player" and by the US 'Blues Revue' as "An international blues treasure". Since his first recording in 1970 he has released 20 albums, a songbook, a blues guitar instruction manual and a DVD. Hans Theessink has become one of the most sought-after artists of the international blues scene. He is more or less constantly "on tour" and plays an average of 200 concerts a year - a modern day troubadour and entertainer who keeps on spellbinding audiences all over the world with his rich and emotional sounds.

Now the new cd with Terry Evans. Both bluesmen have worked together in the past and for years had a vision of combining forces for a stripped down duo recording. In Dec 2007 they got together in L.A. to do just that. Within 2 days they recorded a soulful album of original songs and soul-blues classics. The album has an intimate feel and obviously they were having a great time making music together.
Both Hans and Terry have a reputation for superb recordings and VISIONS will once again delight even the most discerning hi-fi fan with a fantastic sonic experience.		”

Memphis Slim & Willie Dixon - In Paris - Baby Please Come Home (1962)

WavPack(log+cue+covers) | 241Mb | Playing Time: 00:45:37
Release Year:1996 | Label:Battle/OBC (25218058223) | Genre:Blues


“Piano pumper Memphis Slim (1915-1988) and bass thumper Willie Dixon (1915-92) were kindred spirits. Both men were commanding vocalists and brilliant songwriters who played key roles in shaping the Chicago blues sound of the Fifties, though their roots were in an earlier era. The two blues titans usually worked separately, but during the late Fifties and early Sixties they frequently teamed up for recordings, club dates, and concerts, often in Europe, generating an instant, gusto-filled camaraderie. Though short-lived, theirs was one of the great duos in the history of the blues, and this long-unavailable recording of a 1962 show in Paris is a vital document of that association.”
