John Mooney "Comin Your Way" Album Review
Version 1 of the JM Band and the BEST!
John Mooney is from my hometown, Rochester, NY. He left for the greener blues pastures (couldn't resist that!) of Louisiana a few years back, but not before creating a huge entourage of fans who followed him to every bar he played. I was fortunate enough to have danced away the spring of '78 to the very tunes on this CD at places like the Crazy Horse Saloon and Orange Inn . Ahhh, I digress into melancholy; enough of that.<p>This is the old style John Mooney: finger-picking National steel with pickups, Son House (his mentor) stuff. A couple of the sidemen are also worth mention: the astounding acoustic bass is played by Brian Williams who is still on the local scene with Bobby Henrie and the Goners and the unbelievable acoustic piano is played by Bob Cooper whose whereabouts is unknown (sadly missed).<p>When John came back from Louisiana for a visiting gig, he had gone electric, turned a blues corner so to speak. That music is also great, but this album is the real deal, the John Mooney Band that created memories that hundreds of now middle-aged sonsofbitches like me will take to their graves as bright lights of a bygone era.<p>Move the furniture out the way, throw a bucket of ice on a case of beer, and call in the neighbors: you gonna love this one!

Kelley Hunt "New Shade of Blue" Album Review
Still Waiting
I bought this with a lot of anticipation, but it seems like Kelley has played it safe with what sounds like a collection of pop/blues/soul tunes that don't have a lot of connection to each other. From the credits it looks like she is moving toward the old school blues/soul production with this Nicholson guy that does Delbert. Having been a fan of Kelley's from way back, it breaks my heart to see folks like Susan Tedeschi getting all the fame and fortune while Kelley struggles to get the recognition she deserves. I'm guessing that until Kelley moves toward the more cutting edge song selection and production circles that Susan has access to, things will remain pretty much the same. I am keeping hope alive and waiting for Kelley to find the right producer and/or manager who can help her get over the hump and be the star she deserves to be.

L. C. Good Rockin Robinson "Mojo in My Hand" Album Review
Story of a good blues man
The life stories of blues musicians are often as bittersweet as the music they played. L.C. "Good Rockin" Robinson is a good example. Born in southeast Texas in 1918, L.C. and his brother A.C. travelled and played the blues around Texas in the 1930's, but never made it big. L.C. served in World War II and then came west to join his brother, who had settled in the San Francisco Bay area. L.C. worked in a laundry and played and sang the blues when he could get a gig. He played fiddle and steel guitar, which he held in his lap. L.C. was discovered by Arhoolie Records in the early '70's, a few years before his death and he cut this album. The album is a little uneven. Four of the last 6 songs are gospel numbers in which he duets with his brother, A.C. There's nothing wrong with mixing the two, but the quality of the blues cuts is clearly superior --- especially the first 6 cuts on which L.C. is jointed by "Pinetop" Perkins" on piano and Charlie Musselwhite on harmonica. <p>Some of these songs are brilliant, like "Ups and Downs", which is also featured on the Arhoolie Anniversary Album. If only he had been discovered at the right time, L.C. Robinson might be remembered as one of the all time greats of blues.
