Finis Tasby has been a fixture on the Southern California blues scene for over 4 decades. Originally from Dallas Texas, Finis first made his mark on the Bihari Brothers BIG TOWN label in the 70's and has continued recording for labels as diverse as ACE- EVIDENCE- ELECTRO-FI & DELTA GROOVE. As the lead singer of the MANNISH BOYS, Finis has added his authentic soulful singing to their many fine releases over the past few years.....This set is reminiscent of early 70's radio blues with hit's originally recorded by the likes of BB KING- ZZ HILL & BOBBY BLAND. Kid Andersen's production is clear and crisp with just the right touch of sweetness for Finis' gritty style...

Would love if someone can share a zippy of this one. Thank-you!
This album was released as a fundraiser to help Finis Tasby, who is unable to perform following a stroke. What a shame that it is being made available at no cost-this is theft from someone who cannot afford it! If you do not choose to remove the link, I hope every last person who downloads the album also BUYS a copy of the CD: http://www.bluebeatmusic.com/product_info.php?products_id=20625
@ mr tom: sorry to hear that Finis suffered a stroke. I saw him perform in Australia a few years ago with Enrico backing him on guitar. Both men made excellent blues that evening.
BTW. IMO making this album available here does Finis no harm, and in fact will do him some good by helping to spread his fine talent to a wider audience.

50% of the proceeds from CDs sold go directly to Finis. 0% of the proceeds from the music downloaded here go to Finis. No harm done? Spare me your rationalizations.
In fact, when the CD was released back in the Blues Collective Blog days, a request for upload was met with scorn from the site admins, who said: "Buy the CD."
