The Mississippi Delta has some of the most fertile soil in the world and became one of the richest cotton growing areas in the world which, before the American Civil War, was worked exclusively by black slaves brought over from Africa. The blues was forged on the anvil of poverty and hardship the black sharecroppers and tenant farmers had to endure. Born of the harsh, brutal conditions of life in the South, and full of pain, frustration and anger, the passionate, soulful sounds of the Delta revolutionised the sound of 20th-century music. This compilation celebrates some of its greatest exponents.

This is a reconstruction of what would have been the final Zombies album, an intended 1969 release as a posthumous follow-up to their sleeper-hit Odessey and Oracle. While all 12 albums tracks were collected in the box set Zombie Heaven in 1997 and then sequenced as originally intended as an official Japanese release in 2008, my reconstruction attempts to create a more well-rounded and cohesive album with a new sequence that more evenly distributes the posthumous 1969 Argent-led tracks with the overdubbed 1964-1966 Blunstone-led outtake tracks, as well as using alternate mixes of both. Also through creative editing I was able to add more Colin Blunstone vocals to the album and less Rod Argent lead vocals. In effect, my R.I.P. seems a bit less awkwardly anachronistic, and more a cohesive theoretical baroque-pop follow-up to Odessy and Oracle.

CARRIE & LURIE BELL - Straight Shoot (1986) @320
http://www33.zippyshare.com/v/47829727/file.html
In September 1986 Carey and Lurrie Bell toured England and belgium for the first time as a headline act in their own right. The tour was also a 'first' for Blues South West for whom Carey and Lurrie were their first countrywide promotion. Three weeks of incredible music later it was quite apparent that our choice had been a good one! This album- with its' two vital 'live' tracks recorded at Exeter Art centre-as well as being great blues, is a souvenir of that tour.

Thank you for R.I.P.
Gyro,
Your comment on VMIMC was very well-put. Harlan has a stick up his you-know-what - and I say that not because of his newly instituted password, but rather the tiresome tone of his quite frequent (lofty) diatribes.
TZ's atmosphere is cool - thanks to you Ryp, Gyro, your contributors and the regulars who leave their comments here.

Thanks for Carey Bell! I adore him since he came to isolated Spain, in the 1990s, and I was completely blown over by his harp style --so different to the albums of Little Walter, James Cotton, S.B.Williamson et al I had been listening to --I was just discovering the Blues then.
A big thx therefore to both of you R. and G. for so much blues.
Cheers Daniel, from Spain...
P.S.: Very kind of you to sum up the Tiny Grimes links, on the other Comments, as well as the expiring d/l here!
Thanks for The Zombies, Gyro!
Thanks
Jukebox Lil - I agree with what you wrote.
Thanks!
