Big Joe Williams "No More Whiskey" Album Review
Amazon.com
This late-'70s German recording by one of the blues' finest musicians is being released in the U.S. by Evidence music, marking the first time that <i>No More Whiskey</i> has been available in the United States. Recorded only a few years before Williams's death, in 1982, this CD is an excellent example of his later work and, in fact, of his music overall. It's all here--Williams's rich, expressive singing; his heavily rhythmic guitar work; and several classic songs, the standout of which is "Lonesome Train Blues." There are also four gospel songs, with the vocals of Lydia Carter accompanying Williams's singing on "Jesus Gonna Make Up My Dyin' Bed," "When I Lay My Burden Down," and "Somebody's Been Borrowin'." <I>--Genevieve Williams</I>

L.V. Banks "Ruby" Album Review
Another winner in Wolf's Chicago Blues Session series
I saw L V Banks the first time I went to the legendary Checkerboard Lounge in Chicago, the last of the old-time South Side blues clubs. I was mesmorized by the intimate surroundings at the place and just the overall experience of it all; so much different (then, anyway) than the yuppie-infested blues bars downtown. Which, of course, made this an easy sell for Amazon. But although Banks may not be well-known outside Chicago, this is pretty good Chicago slide-guitar blues, aided by Allan Batts' piano in the studio recordings. His voice may remind some people of Taj Mahal's. Best tracks are "Hard to Love A Woman", "I Love My Guitar" and "Pipe Layer". If you like Chicago blues, this album is recommended. Chicago-based Wolf Records, in fact, has a very comprehensive set of CDs called "The Chicago Blues Session" featuring local artists, of which this one is part, that you may want to check out if you're really passionate about Chicago blues.
