Janiva Magness - Bury Him at the Crossroads - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Matt Ulery's Loom - Wake An Echo [COMPACT DISCS] date 08/27/2013

Enjoy Mike Bloomfield's greatest hits straight from the studio and some live!

2025 . Janiva Magness's 17th album Back For Me is a treasure chest of lesser-known gems by well-known artists (Bill Withers, Ray LaMontagne, Allen Toussaint, Doyle Bramhall II, Tracy Nelson) produced by her longtime collaborator Dave Darling. The album features ace guitarists Joe Bonamassa, Sue Foley, and Jesse Dayton as they each put their stamps on their respective special guest appearances. Back For Me is a powerhouse set moving from the Chicago-via-Texas churn of InchMasterpieceInch to the aching gospel-soul-funk of Bill Withers' InchThe Same Love That Made Me LaughInch. There's heartache and heartbreak, but at the same time self-awareness and accountability and the strength and power that comes from that. In other words, it's the blues.
