Jazz And Blues Recommendations On Rhapsody

.
Check out 'Baby I Ain't Lonesome' by Tree Adams.
I watched the movie 'Redemption Road' this weekend. There was a scene in a blues bar when the band just starts smokin'. After the song was completed, I stopped the dvd, Googled the soundtrack to see who the artist was. I flicked on Rhapsody, found the song and played it again in its entirety. I'd never heard of Tree Adams before....but this song cooks. Excellent blues. The movie was mediocre.

I don't have any of those services. But if you want Blues with your Jazz, or Jazz with your blues, Try this:

Count Basie -- KANSAS CITY SHOUT
with Joe Turner and Eddie 'Cleanhead' Vinson

Includes, "got up this morning, got me a jug, and laid back down"

Has to be one of the greatest lines in Blues!!

Cheers

The blues with strings? It works!! My favorite performance of this classic.
