With a release coming only two months after Crusade, The Blues Alone, the first Mayall “solo” album (i.e. without The Bluesbreakers), was John Mayall’s third album of 1967, or fourth, if you count the various artists compilation Raw Blues. Like Raw Blues, it was released initially on Decca’s discount Ace of Clubs label to distinguish it from a regular Mayall album, although the distinction has been lost over time.

Joined by bassist Ray Brown and drummer Shelly Manne, Rollins is heard at one of his peaks on such pieces as “I’m an Old Cowhand (From the Rio Grande),” his own “Way out West,” “There Is No Greater Love,” and “Come, Gone” Continue reading “Sonny Rollins – Way Out West (year) [2002, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Never one for subtlety, Sammy Hagar calls his grappling with the pandemic album Crazy Times — a title that speaks equally to the personal and the world at large. Hagar does spend some time contemplating “Childhood’s End” and “Father Time,” but make no mistake, he’s still a guy who will jam out to “Funky Feng Shui” and turn Elvis Costello’s “Pump It Up” into an anthem for drinking beer.

This was the first such presentation of a Delta blues musician done by Columbia, which seemed like a pretty hip label at the time, since they had both Bob Dylan and Paul Revere and the Raiders. The man’s picture on the front is mesmerizing, in a word; the white shirt, black string tie, and silver steel guitar just adding to the excitement.
