Thirty years in the making, Taproot goes to the heart of Country and Blues roots, delivering truly original and inspired interpretations of classics. From the rocking boogie of Johnson's "Preachin' Blues" and "Last Fair Deal" to the heartbreaking intimacy of Williams' "Mansion On the Hill," Willis, a veteran bluesman with incredible vocal range and stylistic maturity, makes an important and memorable contribution to Robert Johnson's and Hank Williams' songbooks. "...one of the most sought-after blues pianists; he covers different styles with aplomb, comps like a master, and bangs out a mean solo." ---Blues Review #84.

ALL HAT, NO CATTLE |
CD: $12.75 (US) - NEW ($11.47 with *discount) |
HMG |
1999 | |
| country, rock: San Francisco guitar wizard Joe Goldmark continues his amazing and varied career with All Hat - No Cattle, an all-instrumental tour-de-force that stretches far beyond the instrument's traditional boundaries. Goldmark has played in Bay Area country bands since the 1970's, including the Billy C. Farlow Band, Osage, The Texas Chainsaw Band, and Jim Campilongo and his Ten Gallon Cats. Goldmark cites among his steel guitar influences Buddy Emmons, Tom Brumley, JD Maness, and Sneaky Pete. Loosely characterized as "lounge" or "worldbeat," this album is best described as an attempt to push the envelope of the pedal steel, drawing from ska-influenced Caribbean ("Rico's Lament"), Mexican ("Sabor a Mi"), West African ("Highlife") and vintage soul ("Freddie Scott's "Hey Girl"). | |||||

RELIX RECORDS |
1995 | |
| rock, rockabilly, rhythm & blues, country: New CD, M- condition (shopworn) While Commander Cody is largely thought of as an early- to- mid-'70s phenomenon, he and his loyal troops kept performing and recording their blend of Western swing, rockabilly, and boogie throughout the '80s and '90s. Some of their best latter-day recordings are on the Relix label, and this compilation draws exclusively from those albums. The band's sound remained basically unchanged over the years, and they kept playing their best-known songs well into the '90s, which allows for those chestnuts to be included here in the form of live recordings. The Commander show of his considerable boogie-woogie piano chops on "Beat Me Daddy (Eight to the Bar)" and the boys sound as fresh as ever on the group's biggest hit, the country/rockabilly car song "Hot Rod Lincoln." One of the reasons Cody and company don't sound dated even decades after their "vintage" period is that they were practitioners of an anachronistic mix of styles to begin with. That mix sounds fully captivating on this compilation. | |||||
