I recently listened to Eric Clapton’s “Me and Mr. Johnson” and really appreciated the guitar playing and the quality of the recording. What are some of your favorite Blues recordings?
Rory Gallagher - Blues Rock. An absolute legend. A lot of decent quality recordings, but regardless, he will git you rockin’ with blues rock. Some of his songs have an Irish flair. But then, Rory was an Irish lad.
24/96 hi-res album on Qobuz; ‘Rory Gallagher 50th Anniversary Edition’
Savoy Brown last 2 lps - City Nights and Ain’t Done Yet. Fantastic playing and recording. Full analog sound. Also,Analogue Productions has a series of live blues direct to disc. The Diunna Greenleaf one is super.
Keb Mo & Taj Mahah is a great listen. Music is great and dynamics are outstanding from low end to top. I listen to it often. I downloaded a version from a high resolution service stored on my laptop with USB filtering devices and a high end USB cable. I have a dedicated hybrid tube DAC I use just for high res downloads. I also stream from Tidal and Spotify. But, still I enjoy the hi-res downloaded file best and, never tire of listening to these classic blues artists. Enjoy!
