Great Male Vocals--Walter Wolfman Washington
Checkout this guy's album My Future is My Past. You'll be sure to know a few of these covers. Sparse, traditional arrangements that show off his voice, the room, and his tasty, laid back jazzy blues guitar. I'm going to see this guy live in New Orleans someday.
The sonics are great, making me wish I could hear Jimmy Witherspoon, Lou Rawls, Sam Cooke, and others in this great level of sound quality.

@david_ten,Yes, love DB ii, so glad he is limiting his projects as a side-man and focusing more on his solo career. Saw him at a local club a couple years back when he was out supporting Rich Man....great show and he seemed to be a genuinely nice and humble guy. Bobby Rush is recent discovery for me. Been a fan of blues music for years and heard him of course but just tracks here and there and for some reason he never stuck on my radar. Am amazed at the consistent quality of songs and the surprisingly good quality of the recordings. Down in Louisiana is another good one as is Porcupine Meat. There is a track on PM called "Night Time Gardener" which is what connected me to him a few months back. Can’t wait to get through the rest of his catalog....amazed he is still turning out this great material at 85....would love to see him live....perhaps a road trip is in order, his music makes me smile:) |
Here is a great aria from the greatest tenor who ever lived . https://youtu.be/bUbA5y1hnFg?list=RDofKk_Etapq4&t=6 |
