b. 25 January 1934, Twist, Arkansas, USA, d. 24 October 2000, Chicago, Illinois, USA. ‘Little’ Mack Simmons was one of the stalwarts of the Chicago club scene; he taught himself harmonica as a youngster and in the early 50s occasionally worked with bluesmen on the St. Louis, Missouri, club circuit, before settling in Chicago in 1954. Since the late 60s he recorded for many small local labels, and sometimes larger companies such as Checker.

In 1967 he received a three-year prison sentence for a drugs offence. He ran his own label recording studio and club from time to time and recorded blues, gospel (he was known for a time as Reverend Mac Simmons) and soul. Among his artists were Otis Clay and Sunnyland Slim. His version of ‘Rainy Night In Georgia’, performed as a harmonica instrumental, was a local hit in the early 70s. He made a comeback in the 90s with a series of classic blues albums on the Electro-Fi label. Simmons lost his battle with cancer in October 2000. /Biography by AllMusic

The stellar tracks included here from the P.M. and Simmons record labels appear on CD for the first time. They were recorded from 1971 to 1982 by Simmons at his studio on Chicago's South Side, and were originally released as 45s and LPs.

60 years into a remarkable career, The Dynamic Miss Faye Carol isn’t slowing down. The legendary Bay Area vocalist has announced her new double album, ‘Faye Sings the Blues’. The 20-song collection is the second of four double albums Carol plans to release over a 12-month span, reaffirming her lifelong commitment to preserving and celebrating traditional blues. Backed by a four-piece horn section and an all-star cast of musicians, the album blends timeless classics with original compositions, all delivered with the unmistakable style she’s spent six decades perfecting. “I wanted people to hear the real 12-bar blues with great horn arrangements, played by great musicians,” says Carol.

Joining her throughout the album are an extraordinary lineup of guests, including Taj Mahal, Robert Randolph, Eric Gales, James Carter, Wycliffe Gordon, Gerald Albright, Russell Gunn, Nicholas Payton, Kirk Whalum, Jon Faddis, Tia Fuller and Jubu Smith. The lead single pairs Carol’s rich, soulful voice with Randolph’s expressive pedal steel on a vibrant reimagining of the B.B. King classic. Born in Mississippi and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Carol built her reputation performing with Johnny Talbot & De Thangs before touring with Marvin Gaye and sharing stages with artists including Otis Redding, James Brown, the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. She later became one of the first Black performers to earn widespread acclaim in cabaret, while mentoring generations of artists including Ledisi and Kehlani and founding community music education programs that continue to inspire young musicians today.

Recorded primarily live at Oakland’s 25th Street Recording, ‘Faye Sings the Blues’ features fresh interpretations of blues standards including “Let the Good Times Roll,” “Blow Top Blues,” “Soulful Dress” and “Fine & Mellow,” alongside new originals like “Bad, Bad News” and “Chill With You.” The album follows Carol’s acclaimed 2026 comeback release, ‘Forever Dynamic’, and will be followed by two more ambitious projects, ‘A Soulful Christmas’ and ‘Blues, Baroque, and Bars’. “These are songs that I’ve always loved,” says Carol. “I might put my own spin on it, ‘Carolize’ it up, but I never change the core of the song.”

Personnel: Faye Carol (vocals); Joe Warner (piano); Tarus Mateen (upright bass); Dante Roberson (drums); Russell Gunn (trumpet); Charles McNeal (alto saxophone); James Carter (tenor saxophone); Wycliffe Gordon (trombone).

He has performed extensively around the eastern United States and Canada sharing the stage with such diverse acts as David Johansen (NY Dolls), Daddy Long Legs, Charlie Parr, R.L.Boyce and Brownbird Rudy Relic. In 2018, Orb Mellon was a feature performer at the Montreal International Jazz Festival. In 2019, Orb Mellon was a New England Music Awards nominee in the best blues act category.

Orb Mellon has released 3 full length albums and 3 EPs and his work has been featured in regional, national, and international press. Orb Mellon’s music has been included in feature films and television shows including the FX network hit crime drama "Justified," the feature film "Kill For Me," the HBO drama "True Blood," the CBS / Spielberg produced Sci-Fi drama "Extant" staring Oscar winner Halle Berry, the CBS drama "The Good Wife," the BBC America drama "The Intruders," and the AT&T network drama "Mr. Mercedes."

8. I'm On Your Way Home (3:58)
9. Never Ever (3:59)
10. The Whole World's Got The Blues (4:47)

Homesick Indian Blues is Crystal Shawanda’s most personal and powerful album yet; an unflinching return to the stories, struggles, and spirit that shaped her as an Anishinaabe/Ojibwe-Potawatomi artist. Blending raw blues fire with deep cultural grounding, the record traces identity, displacement, resilience and home. Born and raised in Wiikwemkoong First Nation on Manitoulin Island, Crystal Shawanda has spent her career redefining what Indigenous blues can be.

After breaking records in country music and becoming the first Indigenous woman to win CCMA Female Artist of the Year, she shifted fully into the blues, earning multiple JUNO Awards, Billboard chart debuts, and international acclaim. Homesick Indian Blues continues Crystal's trajectory with a collection of songs rooted in lived experience: the ache of distance, the weight of history, the joy of reclamation, and the fire of self-determination. Produced on New Sun Records — Canada’s first female, Indigenous-owned label — the album showcases Shawanda’s unmistakable voice, her mastery of blues storytelling, and her commitment to lifting Indigenous narratives to the forefront.

This album features members of the Antone’s extended musical family including John Primer, Kim Wilson and The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Lavelle White, Anson Funderburgh, Billy Gibbons and the BFGs, Ivan Neville & CC Adcock with Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, Doyle Bramhall II, Lurrie Bell and a busload of other unforgettable musicians by way of Blues Till 2 Recording Co./Select-O-Hits.

Live-to-tape recordings cut at Arlyn Studios in Austin, Electrical Audio in Chicago and Sam Phillips Recording in Memphis, and produced by Jacob Sciba and Zach Ernst, include tracks by blues heavyweights John Primer, Doyle Bramhall II, Kim Wilson & The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Anson Funderburgh, Lurrie Bell, and Lavelle White. Another highlight is a Clifton Chenier deep cut led by Louisiana torchbearers Ivan Neville and CC Adcock with Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, featuring Jimmie Vaughan on harmonica. A walloping shuffle in the works since the Rolling Stones contributed to the LP A Tribute to the King of Zydeco last year, the song was made complete by Jimmie Vaughan’s ace harmonica playing, a secret weapon that Austin’s reigning king of the Stratocaster has kept close to the vest for most of his professional career.

The breadth of talent found across the album is a testament to the enduring legacy of Austin, Texas's Home of the Blues and its beloved founder Clifford Antone, who passed away in June of 2006.

Lorenzo Thompson (Chicago) is pure passion and dedication. His voice fills every space in any room. He sings in the tour van, he sings while he eats, and surely in his dreams too. But when he takes the stage, that voice captures the hearts of the entire audience, and Lorenzo becomes something special, an impeccable showman, the kind even purists love to see. The Buenos Aires guitarist José Luis Pardo crossed paths with Lorenzo in the nineties in his beloved Buenos Aires. On that occasion, Pardo opened for Thompson at the Blues Special Club in La Boca, when he was just a teenager and taking his first steps in the blues. Many years and shuffles later, at the end of September 2010, Lorenzo and JLP, along with Spanish harmonica player Quique Gómez, embarked on a marathon tour of Spain. They played at various island festivals, culminating their adventure at the Palma de Mallorca Blues Festival.

It was there that the Thompson-Pardo-Gómez trio joined forces with Jordi Alvarez and his Big Yuyu, an impeccable band from Mallorca with whom Pardo had shared laughter, busy schedules, and countless shows. The idea arose naturally and instantly from everyone at the same time: “Let’s record!!” In the incomparable setting of the rural Maria de la Salut, more reminiscent of the Mississippi Delta than the touristy, crowded island of Mallorca, the band entered Jordi Alvarez’s Sa Grava studio to record 13 tracks, of which 11 would make the final cut. They were joined by Juan Amaro on bass and Pep Lluis García on drums, and the recording was produced by the Blues “R” Us agency.

The repertoire is classic, but it sounds renewed and fresh. Perhaps that's because this is a true "international friendly," different passports with one common stamp: Blues. The album opens with Muddy Waters' "I Want to Be Loved," featuring exceptional harmonica work by Quique Gómez. It's followed by the hypnotic "Do the Do" by the howling wolf Chester Burnett. "Evil," "Killing Floor," and several other classics are featured, showcasing the band's elegant and polished sound, maintaining that raw, gritty edge that every blues album needs.

Robert Cray's "Phone Booth" is perhaps the only departure from the Chicago blues sound, though paradoxically, it's a true blues story set in the Windy City. “I’m new in Chicago and I don’t have anyone else to call,” Thompson howls. On this track, Jordi Alvarez and Pardo deliver their solos with maturity and conviction, as they do throughout the entire album. The album closes with a great acoustic version of "Blow Wind Blow," which complements the acoustic section with a rendition of Robert Johnson's "Come On In My Kitchen."

Johnny Big Stone & Sweet Marta are considered one of the few acoustic duos in Spain that perform "Old Blues" and represent the sonic essence of the era. They form a duo that combines the roots of acoustic blues with traditional American music, evoking the early 19th century and performing songs from the plantations of enslaved Black people that addressed the personal and social issues of the time. Inspired by rhythms and melodies from different styles within the genre, such as Delta blues, Piedmont blues, and Old-Time Country, their repertoire includes artists like Jazz Guillum, Reverend Gary Davis, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Blind Blake, and others. They also include songs of their own composition.

Sweet Marta & Johnny Big Stone embarked on a long journey through the cultivated land of blues, USA. They traveled from north to south, passing on Route 61 (the blues route), and knowing more deeply the roots of what they feel and thus touch. This experience gave them the opportunity to see, meet and play with great American blues musicians, such as Paul Oscher, Greg Izor, Mike Keller, John Primer, Steve Guyger and the legendary James Duck Holmes, among others.

The release is titled ‘Past Time Shadow’ and marks an intimate and brutally honest chapter in the duo’s long-running partnership, and the release will be followed by a tour in both Denmark and Sweden. While they usually rock stages at home and abroad with the high-energy, 7-piece powerhouse Thorbjørn Risager & The Black Tornado, they are unplugging for ‘Past Time Shadow’. The album is stripped down to the absolute essence: a guitar, a piano, and one of Europe’s most powerful blues voices.

The title ‘Past Time Shadow’ refers to the echoes and shadows of the past that form the foundation of the duo’s musical DNA. The album offers a raw and intimate blend of roots, blues, boogie-woogie, and elements of gospel. The listener is invited into an intimate universe where the tracks are delivered with the nerve and energy that can only be built through three decades of close friendship and thousands of hours on the road. Following the album release, the duo will pack up their instruments and hit the road to present the new material live. The tour will take them to a selection of venues across Denmark and Sweden, where audiences can look forward to unique and intense concert experiences up close with the musicians.

Austin-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Ruthie Foster released her new studio album, ‘Just Say Yes’, following last year’s album Mileage, which won Foster her first-ever GRAMMY Award. The new record was produced in Nashville by Tyler Bryant of The Shakedown and Rebecca Lovell of Larkin Poe. The album reflects Foster’s approach to life’s challenges, connections and opportunities. Its title came from a simple note Foster wrote to herself: “I wrote this thing on a sticky note and it just said ‘Just say yes’.”

Songs such as Thank You and Tangled address more difficult and introspective moments, while Take Time focuses on perseverance and the small steps that can lead to bigger achievements. The album also features a guest appearance by Larkin Poe on Come on Up. Foster co-wrote songs for the album with Bryant, Rebecca Lovell, Megan Lovell and Mike Seal. The resulting collection draws on Foster’s broad musical background while remaining centered on her own experiences and songwriting. /Henk Hekkelman, Bluestown Music

Nine Below Zero started life in South London during 1977, in the midst of the punk rock boom in England - but their sound and inspiration were so totally counterintuitive to what was going on in punk rock that they scarcely seemed to be part of that movement, apart from their extremely energetic attack on their instruments. Rather than noise for its own sake or auto-destruction, their inspiration lay in classic Chicago blues (though John Mayall's early music and that of the Who and the Kinks from early in their careers also figured into their sound).

Dennis Greaves (lead vocals, guitar), Peter Clark (bass), and Kenny Bradley (drums) - soon joined by Mark Feltham (who actually replaced a teacher of theirs who had sat in on the early gigs) on vocals and harmonica - were schoolmates and friends who shared a love of blues; all had all come into the world in the early '60s, and might well have resigned themselves to having missed the boat for the British blues revival by virtue of having been born in the midst of it. Instead, they reached back to that era and found themselves pegged as part of the "mod revival" in the midst of the punk era.

Originally billed as Stan's Blues Band, they made a name for themselves locally in South London, sounding a lot like the Who from their "maximum R&B" days and the Kinks from their early days, and arrived as younger rivals to Dr. Feelgood. A couple of years later, they acquired a manager and a new name, taken from a song by Sonny Boy Williamson II, and cut a debut record on their own label. By 1980, they'd been signed to A&M Records' British division and took the bold step of making their major-label debut a live album from the Marquee Club in London - to judge from the results, one heartily wished that some of the earlier bands that inspired them had displayed similar daring.

Live at the Marquee, recorded on June 16, 1980 - by which time Stix Burkey had replaced Bradley on the drums - was a success and led to their follow-up album. For their sophomore effort, Don't Point Your Finger, they were determined to translate their live energy into the studio and turned to no less a producer than Glyn Johns, who had worked with the Rolling Stones and the Who in their respective best years. The resulting record reached number 56 on the British charts.

The band's upward momentum was slowed in the years that followed, with Clark's departure (replaced by Brian Berhall), though a third album, Third Degree, followed - but it seemed as though the moment had passed, as that record never got the attention or recognition it deserved from the press or the public. Greaves' involvement with an outfit called the Truth, who coalesced as a full-time band in 1984, seemed to bring an end to Nine Below Zero, and that might have been as far as the group got. But a 1990 reunion got them playing before sell-out audiences, and the group has been working ever since, with Greaves on lead guitar and Mark Feltham even returning to the fold in 2001. /Biography by Bruce Eder, AllMusic

10. When The Levee Breaks (8:50)

On Live On 11/11, Joanna Connor shows exactly why she has earned a reputation as a formidable live performer. Recorded at The Fallout Shelter in Norwood, Massachusetts, Connor and her band deliver an energetic mix of blues, rock, funk and blistering slide guitar. The album is packed with powerful performances, emotion, virtuosity and, above all, the raw energy of a band captured in its natural habitat: onstage.

Joanna Connor, born August 31, 1962, has finally released another live album with Live On 11/11, following Living On The Road from 1993 and Nothing But The Blues from 2000. The recordings for the new album were made at The Fallout Shelter in Norwood, Massachusetts. Born in Brooklyn and raised in Massachusetts, Connor made a move in 1984 that would prove decisive for her musical development: she relocated to Chicago. There she became part of the city’s blues scene and shared stages with artists including Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, James Cotton and A.C. Reed. Connor formed her own band in 1987 and two years later released her debut album, Believe It, through renowned blues label Blind Pig Records.

Between 2002 and 2016, Connor released no new albums, devoting much of that period to raising her children. But anyone who has experienced her onstage knows where a major part of her musical identity lies. Joanna Connor is a live performer through and through. And Live On 11/11 makes that abundantly clear. [---]

Live On 11/11 ultimately works as a showcase for everything Joanna Connor and this band can bring to a stage. There is plenty of spectacular guitar playing, particularly for listeners who love Connor’s fierce slide work, but reducing the album to guitar fireworks would miss the point. There is dynamics here. Funk. Chicago blues. Rock. Restraint. Emotion. Musicians listening to one another and then knowing exactly when to push harder. Most importantly, it sounds alive. Live On 11/11 is a powerful snapshot of a great guitarist and a strong band doing what they do best. /The Blues Magazine

They say that reincarnation is making a comeback. If that is so, it has never been more true than in the new CD by the Onesko, Bogert and Ceo Project -- aptly called 'Big Electric Cream Jam.' These three blues-rock virtuosos channel the feeling, emotional content, and musical virtuosity of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker, respectively, and, believe it or not, take the music up a notch. Most of all, they capture the live excitement and power of the original trio and do it justice -- no mean feat! Overall, the inspired playing on this CD makes one not only appreciate Cream on a deeper level, but establishes Onesko, Bogert and Ceo, three veteran players in their own right, in a category of their own whose musical chops show the wisdom of their years, with a debt, no doubt, to the original trio. Clearly, this CD represents the rebirth of a pivotal 60s band, but with alternate musicians who have their own story to tell. The music speaks for itself: It's as if Cream came back with a vengeance, employing all of the musical inspiration and musicianship that went down from the time they disbanded to the present day. This is the new must-have CD for all blues-rock fans!
