Bob, thanks for all the goodies ... a kind favour deserves a return - a local lass, who's lasted the distance: Renee Geyer ...




... the Basement is THE spot in Sydney, saw Tommy Emmanuele, Mark Williams - in the last video - there.


Cheers,

Canned Heat - Reheated

005151676_500.jpg


Wiki:

Reheated is the eleventh album by Canned Heat, released in 1988. It features two members of the band's classic lineup, Fito de la Parra and Larry Taylor. Two new members, accomplished musicians, have been added to revamp the band's sound without straying from the original spirit of the band. Among the titles, "Bullfrog Blues" was originally on the B-side of the first single recorded by Canned Heat in 1967; "Built for Comfort" by Willie Dixon was popularized by Howlin' Wolf; "Take Me to the River" is a R&B/soul song which has been recorded by artists such as Al Green and Talking Heads; and Tom Waits's "Gunstreet Girl" is played with a remarkable drive. This album is representative of Canned Heat's efforts to create their own music from various sources.

Opinion: I like it, clean recording, simple sounds. Seems to be live in the studio, minimal processing.

This is the start of a long love affair...John Hammond's comin', Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, acoustic some more Blues, and a whole bunch more...
...Some we all know, and some you probably don't know...yet.
...Folk Blues, more women too. ...And men too...Doug MacLeod → http://doug-macleod.com/biography.html

She's a true Aussie treasure.
You reminded me that I had an album I've been meaning to listen to for a while... Anni Piper's "Chasin' Tail".
I see on her website it's described as "Blues on the rocks (served in a dirty glass)."

She's another Australian export. The whole album is on Youtube.


From her latest release, again the album is on Youtube.


Some live tracks with better than average sound, plus interview soundbites:


Some robust Aussie humour from her latest album:


One good thing about Youtube is the suggestions it makes. What is it about women blues singers with big... bass guitars?
