Grateful Dead: The Grateful Dead 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

Read "The Grateful Dead 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The Grateful Dead didn't always make the most astute business decisions through the course of their career, but the marketing/merchandising agreement reached in 2006 with Rhino Records has been a treasure trove for the label, the band and its fans. And notwithstanding accusations of cash-grabbing, the fact is packages such as Sunshine Daydream (Rhino, 2013) and ...

Delbert McClinton: Prick of the Litter

Read "Prick of the Litter" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Texas-born Delbert McClinton is one of America's great natural resources. And that three-time Grammy Award-winning reputation is based on more than just his nurturing of John Lennon's interest in the harmonica back in the early '60s when McClinton, as part of the duo Delbert and Glen, were touring with The Beatles. A string of more than ...

Dennis Coffey: Hot Coffey in the D – Burnin' at Morey Baker’s Showplace Lounge

Read "Hot Coffey in the D – Burnin' at Morey Baker’s Showplace Lounge" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Club d'Elf: Live at Club Helsinki

Read "Live at Club Helsinki" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

It's not really necessary to be a dervish dancer to appreciate Club d'Elf, especially because, on Live at Club Helsinki, the prominence of varied sounds from Duke Levine's electric guitars, combined with the keyboard wizardry of John Medeski, is enough to capture and hold the attention of (almost) any contemporary music-lover. It's as effortless to fall ...

Blues Deluxe: Colin James, Matthew Curry and Johnny Nicholas

Read "Blues Deluxe: Colin James, Matthew Curry and Johnny Nicholas" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The cultural fragmentation of the last two decades or so has resulted in such a multiplicity of niche categories that the blues community only benefits by its long-term standing of loyalty to the genre. Rather than suffer foolish players gladly or thoughtlessly reward the mediocre results of their efforts, these devoted and inveterate music-lovers deeply relish ...

Jack Lee: Anthology - Bigger Than Life

Read "Anthology - Bigger Than Life" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Just one cut shy of two dozen tracks comprise the Jack Lee Anthology Bigger Than Life, but the single CD nevertheless lives up to its title if only in regards to the artist's reputation (plus the fact these recordings have not been readily available since their original issue thirty-plus years ago). As one third of the ...
