RealAudio
| Artist | Track | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Big Guitars from Texas | Boomerang | Let's start this last minute new year's day fill-in with a little Texas twang! |
| North Mississippi All-Stars | Eyes | Sons of Jim Dickinson & RL Burnside make some rockin' blues, on "Instores & Outtakes" (Tone-Cool, 2004) |
| Particle | Launchpad | Thanks to Howard Tarplin for turning me on to this tune, via his annual 3-CD holiday compilation. |
| Duke Robillaird | Stratisfied | It's been a while since Duke left Roomful of Blues; on his own, he still plays a mean guitar-- as on his 2002 album "Living with the Blues" |
| Los Lonely Boys | Onda | These three Tex-Mex brothers are hot these days-- and it's nice to see some real talent in the pop charts instead of all the pretty boys (& girls) |
| Eddie Hinton | You Left the Water Running | What a soulful tune, from a white guy with lots of soul; Hinton died in the 90s-- but he left us some great music |
| Delbert McClinton | The Rub | Delbert wrote this one, for his 2002 "Room to Breathe" album on New West. |
| Doug Sahm | La Cacahuata (The Peanut) | Tex-Mex instrumental on Doug's "Groovers Paradise" album |
| Roy Head | Get Back | In 1988, Bear Family Records out of Germany issued a vinyl collection of Roy Head tunes called "Treat Me Right" |
| South Austin Jug Band | My Baby in the Sunshine | Found on "Live from the Devil's Barnyard" from KFJC radio, Los Altos Hills, California |
| Johnny Nicholas | Foggy Bottom | "Livin' with the Blues" is a nice new album from multi-instrumentalist Nicholas, with help from some of Austin's best. |
| Johnny Nicholas | Hill Top | Instrumental tribute to the Hill Top Cafe, near Fredericksburg , Texas-- which Nicholas and wife run. Check them out at hilltopcafe.com |
| Johnny Nicholas | Down in the Alley | Ernie Durawa-- longtime Doug Sahm/Texas Tornado percussionist-- plays drums on most of this album. This tune is a tribute to Sir Doug |
| Hank Crawford & Jimmy McGriff | Frim Fram Sauce | Recorded in 1986, this song has Mel Lewis on drums & George Benson on guitar-- and Crawford & McGriff on sax & organ |
| Chris Kenner | Will You Be Mine? | "New Orleans Rarities" has great songs but lousy fidelity! |
| Cecil Payne | Block Buster Boogie | Rev-Ola just put out an incredibly hot collection of 50s R&B called "Zoot Suit Riot" |
| Earl Bostic | Flamingo | These Rev-Ola Brits put out some amazing music; check them out at www.revola.co.uk/ |
| Three Dots & A Dash w/ Big Jay McNeeley | Let's Do It (The Deacon's Hop) | Big Jay was a wild sax honker out of L.A. & Three Dots were a vocal group (with Jesse Belvin and others) he put together. Read Jay's amazing tale: "Nervous Man Nervous" by Jim Dawson |
| Paul Williams | Juice Bug Boogie | The great Hucklebucker was hot stuff in the late 40s & early 50s; check out the 3-CD set of his music on Blue Moon out of Barcelona |
| Rolling Stones | If You Need Me | Fine cover of Fats Domino/Dave Bartholomew tune; those Stones sure had good taste |
| Wardell Quezergue Orchestra w/Donald Harrison | What A Wonderful World | On "Our New Orleans"-- a terrific CD to benefit Habitat for Humanity efforts to rebuild N.O. Go out and buy a copy! |
| Gilberto Gil | Bat Macumba | Soul Jazz just put out a great collection of Brazilian music called "Tropicalia"; here are two versions of one cool tune |

| Matamo Juma | Risala | From "Zanzibara 2" on Buda Musique out of Paris |

| Jethro Tull | Round | A short filler to make up for it! |
| Bobby Rambo | C'mon Everybody | Good cover of the Eddie Cochrane hit-- on "Kicksville, Volume 4" on Norton |
| Phil Baugh | Dry Camel | Hot guitar instrumental from "Live Wire" on Sundazed by this longtime Nashville session player |
| Phil Baugh | No Deposit, No Return | Nice vocal. These songs were recorded in 1964 & 1965 in Nashville |
