To all you blues lovers. Mark, Bray, Rick, Mike and I'm sure I'm missing many others, sorry. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.00, go strait to your nearest music supplier and get Eric Burdon's new CD. This is the very same E.B. from Eric Burdon and the Animals. For you younger guys, the guy that popularized "House of the Rising Sun". His new CD is "Soul of a Man" and it is cooking. His voice is amazingly in top form and the band is tight as my Scottish poppi's change purse. I am totally knocked out and can't get this out of my CD player.
Disclaimer: Of course I have always thought that E.B. was one of the best interpreters of the blues and had one of the most unique and recognizable voices in music. Trust me on this one.

Thanks Oz! I'll certainly get the CD ... why? Because I know for a fact whenever it comes to very good tunes you certainly have a great ear and I trust your judgement ...that's why!
I read your reply a few of days ago ...

Today it has been all blues. Mostly of the Mississippi Delta
Rory Block
Cory Harris
Keb Mo
Eric Bibb
Kelly Joe Phelps
Guy Davis <<<<
and darn near went into some serious withdrawals because my system has been down for a couple of weeks and it will be a couple of more weeks before the new room is ready for the gear, it's coming along quite well though.
Have you ever listened to this band Delta Moon, from up near your way in Atlanta? We saw them a couple of years ago at a blues fest and I really like their sound, I'm betting you will as well.

I've had my system down for only a couple of days and already miss it. It should be back up and running mid week I hope. For now it's been computer speakers and the blues selection on Pandora

I'm still in touch with a number of old friends with whom I worked in Radio in the 1970s, many of which are still in the business. There is a LOT of buzz about this album and Burden's performance. Though it shouldn't, it surprises me when some of the old folks come up with some startlingly good stuff (Carlos Santana a couple of years ago, for example, and now Burden)

Makes one (at least myself anyway) wonder what we may have missed had folks like E.B. been recording music all along.

Can't quite call myself an active blues fan (meaning I don't own a whole lot of blues cds) I've always enjoyed Eric Burdon. Great voice. There is an SACD of hits by the Animals and Eric Burdon.
I'll have to check out the new cd. Thanks Oz. Always looking to broaden my musical horizons.

While I have always had the deepest respect for Carlos Santana, I do not think this CD will bring the global attention to Eric Burdon that Supernatural brought to Santana. But then I don't I see this as a commercial attempt to ride the coat tails of some of the top contemporary vocalists on the pop scene today back to the charts either.
That is not to say that there is not some very good tunes on Santana's last couple of CD's but the brilliance is definitely in the marketing.
