Great Male Vocals--Walter Wolfman Washington

@chilhed, I had the exact same reaction!  That brother can play and sing.  Recording quality memorializes his work well. 

Thanks jbhiller just picked it up at my local library at noon after reading this this am.....fantastic!   Only up to track 3 "Even now" w/Irma Thomas!!

Another good one... same genre, Bobby Rush, "Sitting On Top Of The Blues". Perhaps not quite the nuance and detail as the WWW record but it is close. The quality of the songs and sonic's are excellent. 

@chilehed, I’m digging Bobby Rush! Thank you!!! 

Sure thing, are you familiar with Doyle Bramhall ii? If not, check out the album "Rich Man". His roots are deep in the blues but this album really stretches the boundaries and brings in many other influences. There are so many beautiful sounds and textures that blend perfectly with his distinctive voice. He also has a newer release called "Shades" which is also very good but Rich Man has a few tracks that are absolutely stellar.
