320 mp3 
sound quality: 9
 

Awesome set from 2 of the greatest of the original Chicago Blues scene! These two legends performed together for years all over the world. Wells is considered one of the best ever on harp and Buddy Guy was an idol for other blues guitar players, such as Eric Clapton, and an inspiration to Jimi Hendrix! No need to say more! Mr Guy still is around and plays as strong as ever. His last studio effort Rhythm & Blues showcase the 78 years old master at his best.
Enjoy this one ! 
And support the Blues where ever you are!

Los Lobos Live in Gemany 1987





 Los Lobos, Spanish for "The Wolves", are a multiple Grammy Award–winning American Chicano rock band from East Los Angeles, California. Their music is influenced by rock and roll, Tex-Mex, country, folk, R&B, blues, brown-eyed soul, and traditional music such as cumbia, boleros and norteños.
I have been following this band since their first recording in the 80ies and they are truly one of the best blend of styles you will find! They won best live act in America award a few times and in the late 80ies Rolling Stones magazine named them the best kept secret in the U.S.
I dont have much infos on the show  others than it was somewhere in Germany in 1987
sorry no flacs  but great MP3 quality. More of them coming up soon!

Enjoy! and support these artists!

Tinsley Ellis Live At Jazzbones Tacoma, WA August 2009



Sound Quality:  9.5
Source: Soundboard

 A hard-rocking, high-voltage blues guitarist most often compared to Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tinsley Ellis is hardly one of the legions of imitators that comparison might imply. Schooled in a variety of Southern musical styles, Ellis draws not only from fiery Vaughan-style blues-rock, but also Texas bluesmen like Freddie King and Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, the soulful blues of B.B. King, the funky grit of Memphis soul, and numerous other electric bluesmen. Ellis has been praised in many quarters for the relentless, storming intensity of his sound, and criticized in others for his relative lack of pacing and dynamic contrast (he's also been dubbed a much stronger guitarist than vocalist). Yet no matter which side of the fence one falls on, it's generally acknowledged that Ellis remains a formidable instrumentalist and a genuine student of the blues.


 As always, Support this artist by seeing him live and buying official stuff. !

Band

Interstate 40 Rhythm King

Benny Olander

Kenneth Nilsson

Jan-Ola Mazetti

Richard Carlsson

Björn Vilhjalmsson




This is a great Swedish band, in sweet and perfect harmony with the

rock hard R&B, swing blues, jump blues, 50's-70's rock-blues -

that's the Interstate 40 Rhythm Kings in a nut shell.


From hits to unknown, from sweet ballads to the up tempo

blues rock, from old to new - and all presented for a dancing

audience! Interstate 40 Rhythm Kings will guarantee you a night

where you don't want to sit at a table, but a night with lots of

dancing, swing, and rock'n'roll!




I dont know much about the show itself but Im pretty sure it was a Swedish

radio broadcast. 17 smokin' tracks here !

sorry no flac for this one.

Joan Osborne Live Wetland Preserve 12-31-92

Here is a great recording of early Joan Osborne, before the Lilith Fair crowd got their hand on her. This is on balls to the wall rock, R&B & soul shows!
This show goes out to one of the top tapers Dave Nolan. Dave was a fixture on the taper seen from 1988 to his passing in 2010. Those of us in the tri-state area who listened to his late night program on WBAI got to hear all the sounds around the NY scene. Even though he worked a full time job, he would record all sorts of shows (Blues Traveler, Spin Doctors, The Dead, Moe & more), Then rush down to the studio and play them on his 3:00am - 6:00am show. Some times he would have to save the encore of a show for his next weeks show.
