Enjoyed the list. In fact I even hunted down Big Maceo’s Chicago Breakdown on its 2 disc vinyl format and have been enjoying it quite a bit.
Thanks,

Phillip

Have come across one other CD by him called Everybody’s Crazy But Me. Recorded in 1985. Thanks for the list and the Leroy Carr stuff like Papas on the Housetop and Now You Got Me Grievin Mama just gems of popular music I reckon. I was watching a clip today that had Sunnyland Slim playing in Germany with Howlin Wolf and I thought what a privilege it must have been to share the same space with him. Thanks for your music Rev Billy by the way did you write the Garbage Man?

Most of them should be available at Amazon. As far as inide music stores, I have done business with Down Home Music and BlueBeat, both in California. I am actually going to be doing a series on indie record/music stores real soon.
Maxwell’s album can be ordered directly from Circumstantial publications. If you still need some help and/or guidance, feel free to drop me a line at planetbproductions@gmail.com.

Although I have some of the disks mentioned here already, being turned on to others I may never have come across is marvelous A bunch of years ago the local university radio station (KUOR, The University of Redlands California) had a blues program on Friday nights. I’d call in and shoot the breeze with the DJ after midnight and one time he mentioned he would play something for me off the beaten track. It was ‘Cousin Cupcake’ by one William C Wirtz. The rest, as they say, is history.

Moon Mullikan is marvelous. He’s another I picked up by accident being mentioned on the ‘Sermon In Bethlehem’ album. Doing a search on Amazon was all it took. So keep the recommendations coming. Whenever I see there are some in the current week’s article, I go ahead and punch up Amazon. There’s business headed their way.

So keep the recommendations coming. I’m loving it.
