| Jimmie Vaughan - Plays Blues, Ballads & Favorites Legendary Texan guitar slinger Jimmie Vaughan returns with his first solo outing in nearly 9 years, a collection of mostly covers on which Jimmy and cohorts capture the authentic studio sound of the late 50s when most of the tracks were first cut. Jimmie handpicked the covers made famous by the likes of Little Richard, Jimmy Reed, Willie Nelson, Doug Sahm and many more. The album was self-produced and recorded in Vaughan's hometown of Austin with a solid group of mostly local musicians, with longtime cohort Ann Barton lending her vocals to a handful of tunes. |

| Jo Buddy & Down Home King III - Everything's Gonna Be Alright UUSI CD NYT SAATAVANA ! Everything´s Gonna Be Alright! sukeltaa syvälle boogieperinteeseen, jonka Jo´ Buddy vahvasti omaksui USA:n eteläosiin suuntautuneilla nuoruudenreissuillaan. Everything’s Gonna Be Alright! jatkaa edellisten duo-albumien (Grits & Rattles sekä Whole Lotta Things To Do) tapaan omavaraisesti tuotetun roots-ilosanoman levittämistä. ”Teimme levyä niin kauan, että saimme jokaisesta biisistä välittymään kotoisen rennon soittofiiliksen. Äänitimme kaiken mahdollisimman luomusti, 100% livenä siten, että huoneen tila soi ja mikrofonit vuoti. Me halusimme, että rouhean herkässä lähestymistavassamme jokainen nyanssi välittyisi lopputuloksessa siten kuin se on alkujaan soitettu”, Jo´ Buddy kertoo. Levy äänitettiin kahta raitaa lukuunottamatta Ruovedellä, 1860-luvulla rakennetussa hirsitalossa. Nauhoituspaikkana hirsitalo oli mitä mainioin ja antoi levylle duon haluaman, juurevan äänimaiseman. Levyllä vierailevat memphisiläinen trubaduuri-showmies Little Victor huuliharpussa sekä pelimannimestari Veli-Matti Järvenpää haitarissa. Lisäksi lyömäsoittimissa taituroivat Ultra Brasta ja Maija Vilkkumaan bändeistä tuttu Jan Pethman sekä huippukitaristina paremmin tunnettu Tommi Laine. ”Halusimme muistuttaa omalla maanläheisellä tavallamme, kuinka paljon hienoja ja positiivisia asiota jätetetään liian usein uutisoimatta. Yksi sellainen on tämä maailman vanhin, tehokkain ja edullisin masennuslääke: hyvä, ajaton rytmimusa, joka ei kuole koskaan.”, Jo´ Buddy toteaa. Everything’s Gonna Be Alright! –albumin julkaisee tamperelainen Ram-Bam Records, joka parhaillaan viettää 10-vuotisjuhlavuottaan. |

| King Salami And The Cumberland Three - Fourteen Blazin' Bangers !! London’s newest Rhythm’n’Blues-Punk sensation – okay, so they are perhaps our only Rhythm’n’Blues-Punk outfit – are making fun times where ever they go. With a repertoire encompassing and influenced by many of the greats of the ’50s and ’60s you won’t be able to help but move your feet when the Cumberland 3 are blasting out of your speakers. The King howls like Screaming Jay Hawkins with Bo Diddley chasing his coat-tail whilst Andre Williams tries to offer up some of his bacon fat. This man never stops shakin’ and twistin’ and groovin’ while the Cumberland Three (former members of the Parkinsons, Ulcers, and Chinese Lungs) play their own branded mix of vintage rockabilly, desperate rock’n’roll and a bit of soul with fire, energy, gusto and fun! Their five singles have sold like the proverbial hot cakes and this, their debut album, is sure to do the same. This is an old fashioned singles band, one that puts out one seven inch after another, all designed, and guaranteed, to get you dancing like a madman. Fourteen top tunes on one album is a sure fire dance floor filler at any party. Whether live on stage or on record this is one of the most exciting bands in rock’n’roll right now – they are guys who know what it takes to make us move. Equal parts rock and soul, with a dash of funk and a healthy dose of blues and soul. Whether you’re at a club show or in your living room you won’t be able to help yourself from shaking and shimmying |

| Laurel Aitken - You Got Me Rockin' / The Blue Beat Years (1960 to 1964) Immediately after landing on British soil in the summer of 1960, Jamaican singing sensation Laurel Aitken was signed by leading independent record company, Melodisc, and over the next few years he provided the ambitious concern with a slew of popular proto-Ska singles that were instrumental in establishing its newly launched Blue Beat subsidiary as the UK’s most recognisable West Indian music imprint. The very best of these historic and hugely influential recordings are gathered on this compilation - most being made available on CD for the very first time - and with original copies of these highly collectable sides almost impossible to obtain at any price, ‘You Got Me Rockin’’ provides an opportunity to enjoy almost all of Laurel’s Melodisc output for a fraction of the price of an old scratched Blue Beat single. Quite simply, this is the most essential original Ska collection of 2010! (from Pressure Drop Records website) |

| Lightnin' Hopkins - His Blues 2CD Sam “Lightnin’” Hopkins’ career stretched across five decades and some 40 plus labels, not counting subsidiaries, though he seemed to settle for long periods with particular producers, burning out many along the way. When the 34 year-old Sam Hopkins entered Radio Recorders Studio in November of 1946 he probably had no idea of that it would lead to a new identity that would stay with him throughout his life. He had been paired with pianist Wilson Smith and the duo were dubbed Thunder & Lightning by producer Eddie Mesner and the soubriquet stuck to Hopkins . Thunder’s recording career clapped out in around 1948. For a couple of years he flipped from Los Angeles’ Aladdin label to Bill Quinn’s Gold Star Records out of Houston before producer Bob Shad took over cutting sides for his own Sittin’ In With and his employers Mercury and Decca. Sessions for Bob Tanner’s Houston-based TNT and a spell at Herald Records in new York drew a continuous eight-year run of recording to an end in the mid-50s. After a brief hiatus, the folk/revival scene of the late 50s and early 60s took Lightnin’ on board and put an acoustic guitar in his hands. At 47 Lightnin’ was “authentic” and was soon hanging with the folk glitterati and earning well off his live performances. The jazz label Prestige picked him up for their Bluesville imprint and cut 10 LPs with him, with the odd side trip to other outlets, including Bobby Robinson’s Fire label for some raucous rockin’ blues. At the same time he found a second home with producer Chris Strachwitz at Arhoolie, producing some of his finest 60s sides there. He was a highlight of the American Folk Blues Festival in 1964 making some of his best live recordings around this time. His useful recording career ended with the 60s and for the rest of his working life he toured comprehensively from New York’s Carnegie Hall to Rotterdam to Tokyo and back to Houston, Texas, his adopted home. Lightnin’ Hopkins had a mixture of styles and much of his work, even later in his career, harked back to a down home blues style from the pre-war era that he had lived through (although he didn’t record at the time). Apart from the more usual lost love and wig wearing subject matter, he also wrote movingly about the time of slavery and the wrongs committed by both white and black people. At times he also acted like a calypsonian, recording bulletins on the news of the day, sometimes literally. He could also boogie with the best if them. Well, you might say, that’s all very well but does the world need another Lightnin’ Hopkins record? Obviously we think it does, when it is the first proper career overview, and acts as a companion piece to Alan Govenar’s inestimable biography His Life and Blues. Also gone are the Aladdin and Sittin’ in With sides swamped in reverb for later LP release and used by the ooc merchants. But then what do you expect from them. Read the book, enjoy the record.

| Lord Luther - I Am The Lord The town of Salinas is located two hours south of San Francisco in Monterey Country, an area colloquially known as America’s Salad Bowl, thanks to its rich soil. In the 1950s, the region was also the fertile fiefdom of “Lord Luther” McDaniels, a unique personage who rose from leader of respected vocal group the 4 Deuces to assume the mantle of Bay Area rock royalty. Luther started at the top with ‘W-P-L-J’, but true to his self-effacing demeanour, the man was never hung up on the what-ifs of becoming a record star, and for most of his fifteen years as an entertainer, remained resolutely focused on just that: entertainment. If Lord Luther was one of the scenes most colourful characters in the 50s and early 60s, he was also amongst its most colourblind, boasting integrated bands and audiences that blended white, black and Hispanic into a happy, thrilled throng. As the writer and lead singer on the Deuces’ bluesy vocal group classic ‘W-P-L-J’, Luther was already known on the local chitlin’ circuit, but it was as a solo artist with a rabble rousing, tremendously exciting stage show that the Lord came into his “comfort zone”. Promoting his own revues on the Monterey Peninsula, Luther was an unpretentious rock’n’roll pioneer, one that many local musicians still reminisce about fondly. Lord Luther’s vintage catalogue covers a decade’s worth of singles, that stretch from the doo wop of the Deuces to his own unique blend of R&B and rock’n’roll, on highly regarded records like ‘Teenage Creature’, ‘A Thinkin’ Man’s Girl’, ‘Just One More Chance’ and ‘Tremble’. All of these and a host of unissued vintage sides are featured on “I Am The Lord!”, covering the artists collectable recordings for the Music City, Frantic and Gedinsons labels between 1955 and 1964. It’s a crude and crazy rockin’ pot-pourri that is a must for fans of black rock’n’roll. Most importantly, this is the first time his legendary ‘W-P-L-J’ has been officially reissued, with the master tape sound quality that vocal group aficionados have hitherto only been able to dream about. With continued interest in the Deuces, the Lord has recently returned to the stage, wowing audiences at East Coast doo wop/oldies shows, most of whom know little of the legend of Luther the entertainer, beyond ‘W-P-L-J’. Produced with the singer’s full co-operation with an extensively annotated and illustrated booklet, “I Am The Lord!” thus pays tribute to this fascinating artist, whose vintage recordings capture some of the pioneering excitement of rock’n’roll’s greatest era. Note: Luther’s $500 Northern rarity ‘My Mistake’ will be featured on an upcoming Kent Records collection, and further sides by the 4 Deuces are slated for Ace’s Music City vocal group series.

| Nick Curran - Reform School Girl Nick Curran describes his music as a cocktail consisting of the sounds of no less than seventeen widely differing musicians blended together with a cup of broken glass. That only begins to characterize the wallop packed by the 98-proof elixir of this singer, songwriter and monster guitarist who effortlessly carries the past with him as he blazes across the musical landscape in perpetual forward motion. Curran began his professional career at age nineteen, leaving Maine to tour with Ronnie Dawson. Although Dawson was primarily a rockabilly musician, many blues and punk fans appreciated his performances. He taught Curran not to get pigeonholed. Curran toured next with Texas rockabilly doyenne Kim Lenz, moving to Dallas to join her backup band the Jaguars for two years, and performing on Lenz’s recording, “The One And Only.” Nick would stay with the Jaguars for two years. He is also featured on Lenz’s latest CD, “It’s All True,” and recently toured with her in the summer of 2009. In 1999 the Texas Jamboree label issued Curran’s debut solo recording, “Fixin' Your Head.” As he would do on all future CDs, Curran used vintage recording equipment to achieve the feel and sound of old 45s and 78s, and the LPs of the 1950s. To support the recording he formed the band, Nick Curran and the Nitelifes, whose performances whipped audiences to frenzied devotion with their wild ride of retro, yet fresh and edgy rock ‘n’ roll, boogie, R&B, jump blues and a variety of other tasty stylistic devils in the details. A second Texas Jamboree CD, “Nitelife Boogie,” followed in 2001. When Curran moved to Austin, Jimmie Vaughan, who had heard his CDs, invited him to sit in on a set at Antone’s. Vaughan would make a guest appearance on two tracks on Nick’s next recording, “Dr. Velvet,” which garnered the 2004 W.C. Handy Award (now the Blues Music Award) for "Best New Artist Debut." From 2004 to 2007 Curran displayed his talents with The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Kim Wilson’s legendary band, appearing on their 2005 recording, “Painted On.” Also during that time, Curran and bassist Ronnie James started the punk band Deguello, saying that it “sounded as if Little Richard sang with The Ramones.” After performing a solo show in November, 2008, Nick was inspired to form the rock ‘n’ roll roots band, The Lowlifes. “Reform School Girl” is a culmination of Curran’s multitude of talents: a throwback to his roots, only amped up to the limit. “I’ve written more songs on ‘Reform School Girl’ than on any other records. I wanted it to have no filler – only good stuff. All my influences are there, from old blues like Lazy Lester and T-Bone Walker to girl groups like The Ronettes and The Shangri-Las, to Guns N Roses.” The album also features a couple of appearances by some of Nick’s close personal friends including a duet on the song “Flyin’ Blind,” co-written with Blasters’ frontman Phil Alvin, as well as harmonica ace Jason Ricci on “Reel Rock Party.” Catch Nick Curran as he shakes, rattles and rolls a head-spinning combination of genres and tunes into a cool, irresistible cocktail that is rough and ready for action.

| Paul Gayten - Ain't Nothin' Happenin' 30 track (77:51) multi label collection 1947-57. The unsung Crescent City bandleader Paul Gayten made the first New Orleans R&B recordings of the post war era and had the first local hit there in 1947. As a producer, he was responsible for grooming hit singers such as Annie Laurie, Larry Darnell, Chubby Newsome, Bobby Charles und Clarence 'Frogman' Henry and became an important individual in the Chess empire before forming his own label in the late 1960s. This thirty-track compilation traces the first half of his high-voltage career in the recording business and proves how necessary he was to the birth and development of New Orleans R&B and rock'n'roll. |

| Pete Gage - Tough Talk A STUNNING NEW ALBUM BY PETE GAGE - "TOUGH TALK" IS OUT NOW! ALSO FEATURES LEGENDARY GYPIE MAY0 ON GUITAR! Pete Gage, who was born in Paddington London in February 1946, is a multitalented and charismatic artist. He has a stunning, deep and rich voice, and he's also a very capable piano and harmonica player. Here we have a real bluesman, whose interpretations are always full of feeling and are coming straight from the heart and guts. His music chorea started already in the mid 60's. Semi-legendary band called The Sloane Squares had already earned a cult status with their raging live shows, when ex-Shadows bass player Jet Harris hired them as his band. A single by Jet Harris, "My lady" was released in 1967, and features Pete Gage on vocals. Many will remember Pete from the 90's, when he was a frontman for Dr Feelgood for five years, and was taking care of vocal duties for example on their "On the road again" -album. A couple of solo-albums has been released too, "Give it with a feeling" in 1994, and piano-blues-album "Out of hours" in 1997. The latter was recorded in Finland, and released by finnish record company Goofin' Records, and got a very good reviews all over the world. Last couple of years Pete Gage has taken it easy in his native region in Frome England, but still all the time has toured with different line-ups, doing all kinds of gigs, from small clubs to a big blues-festivals. Mainly in England, but also in other countries like Spain and Finland. In Finland he has always had a large and loyal fan base, and is a very much loved and wanted performer especially in all kind of blues happenings and festivals. Recording wise things are also happening at the moment. Pete has recorded a brand new album "Tough Talk" (GRCD 6165) at Juha Takanen's famous Äänistudio in Finland. It has now been released by famous finnish rootsmusic label Goofin' Records. On the album Pete is taking care of all vocal duties, he also plays piano throughout the album, and adds some tasty harmonica on a couple of tracks. Most of songs are new ones written by artist himself. There's twelve original songs along with three covers, one of them being the old favorite "Standing at the crossroads" written by Mickey Jupp, which is given the all time rockin' treatment. The style is bluesy and very rootsy; blues, rhythm & blues and rock'n'roll are having an important role all through the record, and also some hints of cajun, country and jazz are there to spice up the whole thing. "Tough Talk" features a bunch of best players from the finnish roots scene. Also a legendary english guitarist Gypie Mayo (ex-Dr Feelgood, ex-Yardbirds) is playing on six tracks. |

| Smiley Lewis - Smiley Rocks The most comprehensive single-disc collection available of Smiley's rocking 1950s output for Imperial.Features the brilliant Studio Band at Cosimo Matassa's New Orleans studio: saxists Lee Allen and Herbert Hardesty, drummer Earl Palmer, pianists Edward Frank and Huey Smith, and trumpeter/producer Dave Bartholomew among them.Contains both scorching versions of Shame, Shame, Shame, many equally fabulous rockers, like Bumpity Bump and Smiley's classic originals I Hear You Knocking and One Night, covered by Gale Storm and Elvis Presley respectively.Boasting a booming vocal delivery, Smiley was one of the seminal performers on the 1950s New Orleans R&B scene.The charts didn't reflect just how spectacular Smiley Lewis' 1950s output for Imperial Records was. Under the savvy aegis of producer/songwriter Dave Bartholomew and featuring the Crescent City's top studio sidemen, Smiley made some of the most blistering rockers of his era. Yet only a handful of them were national hits; his classic original I Hear You Knocking was victimized by a puerile Gale Storm cover that killed his pop crossover potential, and Elvis Presley latched onto One Night, cleaned it up, and sold a lot more copies than Smiley ever did. Why She's Got Me Hook, Line And Sinker, Bumpity Bump, Rootin' And Tootin', and Shame, Shame, Shame weren't hits during rock 'n' roll's primordial age we'll never know.--Bear Family's jam-packed single-disc collection of Smiley's greatest rockers showcases his huge, wall-shaking voice (reminiscent of Big Joe Turner's on the bluesier early stuff) on a non-stop barrage of rockers ranging from 1950 to 1958. Bartholomew was Smiley's best source for material, writing most of his most memorable releases, though Lewis penned a few of his own early on. Even Little Richard would be envious of some of these houserockers, with tenor saxman Lee Allen wailing and drummer Earl Palmer stoking the romping rhythm like a locomotive. This is the most comprehensive single-disc Smiley Lewis collection on the market! |

| Stone River Boys - Love On The Dial When the Hacienda Brothers released their third and final studio album titled Arizona Motel in 2008, guitarist Dave Gonzalez was left with the unfortunate task of promoting the new release without his partner Chris Gaffney who died unexpectedly from liver cancer. So Gonzalez put together an Austin Texas all-star band to hit some of The Hacienda Brothers favorite venues, and it was Gonzalez himself who took over the onstage vocal duties for all of Gaffney’s songs, nailing them with emotion and finesse night after night. Gonzalez’s outstanding performances are no surprise to those who followed The Paladins, where Gonzalez did the bulk of the singing for over 20 years. Dave Gonzalez was also the Hacienda Brother’s primary songwriter and powerhouse guitarist who in 2007 was named one of Guitar Player Magazine’s “Top 101 Unsung Guitar Heroes.” Gonzalez had recently helped develop a new prototype Baritone Guitar for Fender. With this guitar he is a pioneer of sorts, exploring new dimensions in guitar tones that only a baritone can produce. The sound is part Duane Eddy, classic honkytonk, and spaghetti westerns. As Dave explains “unexpectedly it also sounds absolutely great on the soul stuff.” This year Spin Magazine selected the Hacienda Brothers at one of the “100 Greatest Bands You’ve (probably) Never Heard.” Gonzalez says, “This is a consolation prize for all the hard work the Hacienda Brothers put into the project and if Gaff had pulled through than maybe we could have shook the "Probably Never Heard Of" part of their 100 Greatest list.” The wild card in Gonzalez’s Austin All-star band was vocalist Mike Barfield. While some people might have mistakenly looked at Barfield as an attempt to replace Gaffney, the fact and the results couldn’t be further from that: Barfield proved to be just the breath of fresh air the shows needed to keep them fun-loving and spontaneous. Barfield is a singer that Gaffney respected and enjoyed. Barfield has fronted his own band, The Hollisters, and spent the last few years creating his own brand of country-soul, recently releasing two CDs of largely original material. The most recent, The Tyrant (Tater Tot Recordings) takes its name from Barfield’s nickname as The Tyrant of Texas Funk. The CD features a slew of fun, soulful, funky and sometimes irreverent songs like “Funky Cupcake” and “The Struggle.” When Barfield breaks into his screaming whoops and animated country-soul dance you’ll want to join the infectious good time. Gaffney would have loved this pairing. In 2009 the Stone River Boys made a big splash performing at SXSW and the Americana Music Conference. Out of their showcases came a record deal with Cow Island Music out of Massachusetts. For every end there is a new beginning and in this case for Dave Gonzalez and Mike Barfield, it’s The Stone River Boys |
