Death Letter (Organized Noise Remix) |
MP3 |
|
Blues, Rap/Hip Hop |
The remix slicks up this gutbucket track a trifle much, but it’s still a prime slice of 21st century hip-hop blues. If you played out Moby’s Play, dig in!

Blues |
Reed was near the end of the road on this wah-wah blues, though there’s barely enough leftover Delta dynamite to make it worth a listen.

|
Lightning |
MP3 |
|
Blues |
A vibrant blues instrumental from Cotton's new album, with his ageless harp leading the charge. Tastier than a freshly-dunked rib tib!

The Train I Ride |

|
That's Alright Mama |
MP3 |
|
Blues |
A footstompin' acoustic version of the Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup classic, recorded live in a Mississippi fisherman's cabin back in 1972! This cat's got an even louder boot-heel than John Lee!

Howlin' Wolf |
|
Howlin' For My Darling |
LiquidAudio |
|
Blues |
Howlin' Wolf is the name, but there's way more growlin' than howlin' on this live version of the Chester Burnett-Willie Dixon classic!
