Canned Heat and The Fabulous Thunderbirds: All Blues
by Doug Collette
Legitimate practitioners of the blues realize full well their vocation is a life-long enterprise, neither a passing fad to be followed nor a mere whim to be pursued.

Rory Block: Positively 4th Street - A Tribute To Bob Dylan
by Doug Collette

Taj Mahal: Savoy
by Dave Linn
Savoy, from Taj Mahal, is the latest entrant in the crowded field of pop music artists trying their hand at the fertile songbook of old big-band, swing-era standards.
