By repute Guitar Slim was the most over the top performer who ever picked a twelve bar blues. He may have had a short career (he died in 1959), but he sure knew how to make an impact. Just put on the title track of this compilation and imagine this guy with blue hair, blue suit and blue shoes, up on the shoulders of his valet, with a 350 foot lead running from his guitar, out in the parking lot serenading the moon, the stars, the cars on the highway and even the paying punters in the club. Now that's showbiz!

As a player he amalgamated the styles of many other players into his own unique sound - there were overtones of B.B. King, T-Bone Walker and most of all Gatemouth Brown in there. He first cut for Imperial in 1951, but real success came with his first Specialty single, "The Things I Used To Do", cut in 53, and featuring Ray Charles on piano. It stayed on the charts for 21 weeks becoming one of the biggest R&B hits of 54. Much of his output after this featured a rather inappropriate organ overdub, but thankfully the raw takes have been discovered and used on this compilation of some wild blues from the short and meteoric career of Guitar Slim.

Reckoned by many bluesmen as "the king" of the blues, the legendary B.B. King is undoubtedly the most important electric guitarist of the last half century. From a rather conventional old-fashioned approach to the blues to a more modern and contaminated series of recent collaboration, he's been a legend in black music for more than 50 years. Yet B.B. King remains an intrinsically humble superstar, an utterly accessible musician who can welcome visitors into his dressing room with self-effacing graciousness. /Album liner notes

San Francisco-based blues singer, songwriter, and chromatic harmonica player Big Harp George/George Bisharat returns with his sixth album, No Shortcuts. Like his last two albums, 2023’s Cut My Spirit Loose and 2024’s Cooking with Gas, he features players from the Greaseland gang, including guitarist Kid Andersen, Joe Kyle on bass, drummer Derrick D’Mar Martin, Chris Burns on keys, along with a bevy of horn players and vocalists, and The Morgan Brothers (James and Dwayne). Tenor saxophonist Doug Rowan, baritone saxophonist Aaron Linton, and trombonist Mike Rinta also play on all tracks. The credits list 20 musicians and vocalists.

Yes, he’s drawing on the folks that often record at Andersen’s Greaseland Studios and for Little Village. He infuses the wide-ranging gamut of blues and jazz styles with wit, sarcasm, and commentary on our current times. Before prioritizing music, George was a criminal defense attorney, award-winning professor of law at UC Hastings College of the Law, and expert commentator on law and politics in the Middle East.

Fans who love horn albums, swinging jazz, and especially jump blues, will gravitate to Big George’s “big sound” as he mixes instrumentals with vocal tracks. [---] Big Harp George proves again to be an astute bandleader, solid songwriter, and a consistent artist. What he lacks in vocal prowess is effectively masked by the huge sound emanating from the horns and background vocalists. /Jim Hynes, Rock & Blues Muse

Seasick Steve returns with The Last Season of America. In 2024, Steve and his wife Elisabeth took a road trip across America where he witnessed the poverty and divisiveness in the context of the upcoming election. They were in a New Orleans club where a house band leader welcomed two Belgian musicians on stage by saying "welcome to the last season of America". This became the theme for the rest of their road trip and led to him writing the title track to the new album. A deeply personal, heartfelt reflection on the state of his home nation, The Last Season of America is a protest record in the truest sense.

Peter Parcek was born in Connecticut, moved to London, England in the 60’s, and now lives in Boston. While in England he saw many of the English performers including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Peter Green and many other guitarists on the scene in that era. While there, he joined a band as a vocalist and harmonica player and played many venues including the famous Marquee Club on a bill that included Pink Floyd. But he was ordered to return to the US as he did not have a work visa.

Returning to Connecticut, He studied the techniques of the American blues artists and other guitarists of the era, witnessing Skip James, Muddy Eaters, B.B. King, and Buddy Guy among others and also Jimi Hendrix in concert. When he moved to Massachusetts, he started practicing his guitar eight to ten hours a day to perfect his style, which he references as “soul guitar”, which is based in the deep emotional feelings he creates with his sound and to the roots of the blues.

In 1990 he became the guitarist for Pinetop Perkins playing on his albums and touring as his band leader. In 2000, he released his debut album, “Evolution”. This is his fifth album release, which combines seven original songs with eight covers. Peter sings and plays guitar on all tracks with his bandmates Tim Carman on drums and percussion, Marc Hickox on bass, and Tom West on Hammond B-3 and Fender Rhodes with numerous guest performers scattered throughout the album. Mark Earley adds horns on five tracks. [---]

Peter proves himself to be a guitar master deserving recognition to be in the lists of the best currently performing guitarists. His vocals are smooth with a slight weary rasp. He delivers an excellent album that is definitely recommended. /John Sacksteder, Blues Blast Magazine

After his time with Los Rebeldes and Rock and Roll Club, Carlos Segarra has launched a new project, Segarra Inn Blues. In it, he combines blues-style arrangements of old Rebeldes songs, original new material, Spanish-language adaptations of genre classics, and English-language covers. For this show, Segarra is joined by Álvaro Martialay (Faraones, Red House) on electric bass and Moisés Beltrá (La Reserva, Motorcity) on drums; like Segarra himself, both musicians reside in the province of Alicante. Born in Barcelona in 1961, Carlos Segarra was already performing in public at just 16 years old, playing covers of artists such as Jerry Lee Lewis, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and—above all—Eddie Cochran. His friend Loquillo supported him as a manager, and the two would later join forces to form a band. In 1979, Carlos Segarra founded Los Rebeldes alongside Aurelio Morata (bass) and Moisés Sorolla (drums). Shortly thereafter, in 1980, the band—along with Los Intocables—backed Loquillo on the album *Los tiempos están cambiando*, which achieved a measure of fame thanks to the song "Esto no es Hawaii." Los Rebeldes made their debut in 1981 with the album *Cerveza, chicas y… rockabilly!*. Since then, the band has released around twenty albums across various formats (including the soundtrack for the film *Las edades de Lulú*). Among these, the 1986 live album *Preferiblemente vivos* was hailed as one of the best Spanish live albums of the decade—a testament to the fact that, at the time, Los Rebeldes were a formidable live act. While continuing with his long-standing band, Segarra has kept his "Rock and Roll Club" venture alive and is now launching *Inn Blues*. This new project blends "glam, rock, and blues—Black music with a blues rhythm"—featuring tracks by Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, and The Doors. As Segarra stated at the project's official presentation, these songs "merge in an exercise where rock and roll and its roots converge."

Obscure blues from mid 70s Chicago featuring singer/harmonica player Mack Simmons, one of the rawer talents of the Windy City scene. The album's actually got a much more open-ended style than you'd expect for such an artist with traces of southern soul kind of oddly filtered through the mix, all hung around some nice rough raw production. Overall, a cool relic of the sort that hardly shows up - with tracks that include "You're So Fine", "Snap Your Finger", "Inflation Blues", and "Skin Tight". /Dusty Groove

Cedar County Cobras arrive with an upright bass, foot drum, and several guitars to play American roots & blues music from the last century. The music takes on an “old time” blues feel that would most likely be found in a juke-joint down a gravel road in rural Iowa. They have played hundreds of shows from the local winery to international festival stages. In 2023, the duo released their debut album "Homesick Blues" which has been charting worldwide and placed in the top acoustic blues records of 2023 and 2024. They are the current winners of the solo/duo category for the Iowa Blues Challenge and placed as semi-finalists at the 2025 International Blues Festival in Memphis.

Personnel: Tom Spielbauer (vocals, guitar, mandolin, drum); April Dirks (vocals, upright bass, mandolin, tambourine).

After taking some time of to release his critically acclaimed solo album ‘Game Changer‘ in 2022 Patrik Jansson is back, but this time with his band, the Patrik Jansson Band. With a new line up and a brand new album, PJB’s fifth full length album, ‘Different Shades Of Blue’, Patrik Jansson Band prove once again that they are a force to be reckoned with, sounding more mature, more energized and more relevant than ever.

The eight original songs on the album, all written and arranged by Patrik Jansson himself, show a wide range of influences ranging from early Texas and Chicago blues like T-Bone Walker, B.B. King and Freddie King (in songs like Keep Me Satisfied and Love And War) to more contemporary blues and blues-rock artists like Joe Bonamassa, Robben Ford, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Walter Trout and Matt Schofield (Gold Digger, Know Where To Go and What’s Up?).

But as always Patrik makes his own versions and tries to expand on the given formula, adding hints of jazz, rock and fusion into the mix, of course without ever losing focus of what makes a great song, namely great melodies, interesting arrangements and great performances, proving once again that not only a skillful multi-instrumentalist but also a masterful songwriter. A horn section is also added to a couple of tracks this time, as well as a harmonica on the song Joline. /Bluestown Music

Personnel: Patrik Jansson (guitar, vocals); Thomas Andersson (bass); Daniel Sohlberg (drums); Robin Hillgren (organ, backing vocals). Guest musicians: Jesper Larsson (harmonica track 7); Stephen Spencer (saxophone); Yahlmar Olofsson-Tuisku (trombone); Erik Forsberg (trumpet).

In 1996 she released her debut CD "Permanent Record" which received international airplay and accolades. That release led to her winning the award for New Artist of the Year at the 1997 Mapleblues Awards. The following year she was nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year.

Robin relocated to Dallas, Texas in 1999 and reformed her band with some of the area's finest musicians. In 2001, she recorded her second CD "Honestly" which features Dallas blues artists including the great Sam Myers, Hash Brown, Pat Boyack, Randy McAllister, Holland K. Smith and others.

October 2002 marked the birth of Robin Banks' third recorded effort, Robin Banks Live After Dark, which features Hash Brown, Christian Dozzler, Drew Allain and Marc Wilson. It also includes many Chicago blues standards by Jimmie Rogers, Willie Dixon, Robert Lockwood Jr. as well as Robin Banks original material.

Malcolm "Little Mack" Simmons (January 25, 1933 – October 24, 2000) was an American Chicago blues harmonica player, singer, and songwriter. He ran the Simmons Records label in the 1970s. Simmons was born in Twist, Arkansas. In his youth, he befriended James Cotton, and both learned to play the harmonica as they were growing up. Simmons relocated to St. Louis, Missouri, at the age of 18 and worked on the railroad. Around this time he made his stage debut with Robert Nighthawk. In 1954, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, put together his own backing band, and had a five-year residency at Cadillac Baby's. He commenced recording in 1959, issuing records on several labels, including Chess.

In the late 1950s and early 1960s Simmons recorded several more obscure singles, often simply billed as Little Mack (or Mac). He owned and managed the Zodiac Lounge, in Chicago, from the mid- to late 1960s, providing opportunities for other artists. He also owned a recording studio and recorded on his own labels, PM Records and Simmons Records. Simmons left the music industry for the ministry in the 1960s and was rarely heard for the next 30 years, notwithstanding an album he recorded in 1975 in Paris.

He returned to blues music with High & Lonesome (1995), an early success for St. George Records, an independent record label. His energetic style, accompanied by Studebaker John, belied his years. Come Back to Me Baby (1996), with featured sidemen John Primer, Willie Kent and Jake Dawson (guitarist), was also well received. Simmons died of colon cancer on October 24, 2000, in his adopted hometown of Chicago; he was 67. /Wikipedia

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.
