Junior Wells - Junior's Wail: Singles As & Bs 1953-1961 (2014) Music

Junior Wells - Junior's Wail: Singles As & Bs 1953-1961 (2014)
Blues, R&B, Rock | MP3 320 kbps CBR | 73 min | 172 MB
Label: Jasmine Records | Rel: 2014

Wells arrived from Memphis fully formed but possessing a rawness that he would always maintain at the age of 18 as an energetic blues harp wizard and a vocalist with an intense and expressive borderline R&B style, schooled back in Memphis by his cousin, Little Junior "Mystery Train" Parker. It would be hard to name another 18-year-old in his rookie year of recording who ever put out a double-sided single as strong and as iconic as Wells's second one: "Hoodoo Man" (originally by Sonny Boy Williamson #1), which became one of his signature numbers, b/w his own original instrumental, "Junior's Wail," the title song of this collection. (Be careful when listening to the latter, as your jaw may hit the floor around the 0:54 mark.)

Chicago Blues, Blues Rock | Label: Cleopatra Blues

Strutting across the stage, cocksure like the blues' answer to James Brown, Junior Wells owned one of the most dynamic voices in Chicago blues. He was as confident belting brassy soul as he was doing lowdown blues, his wide-toned amplified harmonica excursions always compelling. Before joining forces with Buddy Guy, Junior teamed up with light-fingered guitar master Earl Hooker at Mel London's Chief and Profile Records. It was a match made in blues heaven.

An album that Junior often cites as his own personal favorite among his releases, this is the man live and raw recorded at Theresa's Tavern, the south-side Chicago bar, where Junior (and many other blues legends) could often be found spending a little leisure time. Here, Junior rips through a 9-song set made up mostly of Chicago blues standards with just a slight funky mid-'70s edge with help from Phil Guy and Sammy Lawhorn.

T-Bone Walker - T-Bone Blues (1959) Expanded Reissue 1989 Music

Posted by Designol at Aug. 24, 2025

The last truly indispensable disc of the great guitar hero's career, and perhaps the most innately satisfying of all, these mid-'50s recordings boast magnificent presence, with T-Bone Walker's axe so crisp and clear it seems as though he's sitting right next to you as he delivers a luxurious remake of "Call It Stormy Monday." Atlantic took some chances with Walker, dispatching him to Chicago for a 1955 date with Junior Wells and Jimmy Rogers that produced "Why Not" and "Papa Ain't Salty." Even better were the 1956-1957 L.A. dates that produced the scalding instrumental "Two Bones and a Pick" (which finds Walker dueling it out with nephew R.S. Rankin and jazzman Barney Kessel).

Joe Louis Walker - Live at Slim's Vol.1 (1991) Music

Posted by countryfreak at Dec. 17, 2010

Walker was hot enough over the course of a two-day stand at Slim's in San Francisco to warrant the issue of two full albums from the dates. The first is a sizzling combination of past triumphs, new items, and covers of Clifton Chenier's "Hot Tamale Baby," Junior Wells' "Little By Little" (with Huey Lewis, no less, on harp), and a saucy duet with Angela Strehli on the old Fontella Bass/Bobby McClure rocker "Don't Mess Up a Good Thing."
