    How is this? I normally don't like him, but the little clip that i heard on the TV ads sounded pretty interesting.


    I'm listening to hold music in preparation for yet another conference call. God i hate open enrollment period.

    Very good of cores I am a fan of his music. But I like this one as well. A few songs I skimmed over but a lot of them are great.

    I had forgotten how good this LP is.IIRC, it was the next release following Aqualung. I was fortunate to see them on both tours,back in the day.This lp took us by surprise as it differed from the "standard" concert/record philisophy,and is/was considered a "conceptual" lp.

    and,, where was Biggles when you needed him last Saturday

    Luther Allison - Live In Chicago (Alligator 4869)

    As accomplished a guitarist as he was, Allison wasn't a straight-ahead Chicago blues musician. He learned the blues long before he got to Chicago. What he did so successfully is take his base of Chicago blues and add touches of rock, soul, reggae, funk, and jazz.

    Well into his mid-50s, Allison continued to delight club and festival audiences around the world with his lengthy, sweat-drenched, high-energy shows, complete with dazzling guitar playing and inspired, soulful vocals. He continued to tour and record until July of 1997, when he was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer. Just over a month later, he died in a hospital in Madison, WI; a tragic end to one of the great blues comeback stories.


    d6214478y45.jpg

    Pulled from performances at the Chicago Blues Festival, Buddy Guy's Legends club with a couple of strays recorded in Lincoln, NE, that were too good not to include, this two-disc set captures Allison at the absolute peak of his powers. Disc one is the Chicago Blues Festival in its entirety with a bonus track of Luther jamming on the finale with Otis Rush and Eddie C. Campbell on a medley of two B.B. King tunes. Disc two is equally potent, a combination of performances pulled from Buddy Guy's Legends club and the Zoo Bar in Lincoln, NE. Luther simply played his heart and spirit out right to the end and these recordings spotlight it in a very fine manner. One of the label's best.

    One of my favorite blues players.
