Elmore James "Something Inside Of Me" 1968

Elmore James was an American blues slide guitarist and singer who recorded from 1951 until 1963……His most famous song, "Dust My Broom", an electrified adaptation of a Robert Johnson tune, was his first hit and features one of the most identifiable slide guitar figures in blues. James' composition "The Sky Is Crying" (which became a blues standard) and his rendition of "It Hurts Me Too" were among his most successful singles on the record charts. Other popular James' songs, such as "I Can't Hold Out", "Madison Blues", "Shake Your Moneymaker", "Bleeding Heart", and "One Way Out", have been recorded by several other artists, including Fleetwood Mac, Jimi Hendrix, and the Allman Brothers Band.
As with most blues artists in the 1950s and early 1960s, James' recordings were originally issued on two-song record singles. "Dust My Broom" was first issued by the small Trumpet Records label in 1951. Shortly thereafter, James began recording for several larger companies. From 1952 to 1956, he recorded for the Bihari brothers, who issued singles on their Meteor, Flair, and Modern labels. In 1957, he recorded for Mel London's Chief Records and from 1959 to 1963, for Bobby Robinson's Fire Records. In 1953 and again in 1960, James also recorded some songs that appeared on Checker / Chess Records. He also played guitar on several recordings by other artists, including J. T. Brown, Big Joe Turner, Little Johnny Jones, and Junior Wells.
In 1960, the Biharis released the compilation, Blues After Hours, on their budget Crown label, which was the only album released during James' career. After his death in 1963, his former companies began re-issuing a number of his singles on subsidiaries and leasing them out to other companies. These various labels also began releasing numerous compilation albums, often with significant overlap in song selection. With the advent of compact discs, this trend continued. However, some box sets have appeared that collect most or all of James' recordings for a particular label or time period. The Chess, Capricorn, and Virgin America / Flair collections also include some previously unreleased material and alternate takes. - wikitrax:

Rocking Bear requests

Brother Dege (Aka Dege Legg) Pronounced: Deej - Leg...

...is one of the best kept secrets in the Deep South; a musician, writer, workingman and heir to a long line of unusual characters born and raised in the southern U.S. Like the mad lovechild of Son House, Faulkner, and Patti Smith, Legg has burned a crooked trail to the Promised Land. Avoiding traditional career paths, he has spent as much time exploring the backwoods weirdness of his home state as he has forging his own brand of incendiary, "psyouthern" roots music. The journeys are parallel. Since the late 90s, Dege has pushed slide, resonators, and the deep south, kicking and screaming into the 21st century, melding elements of folk, Delta blues, punk, rock, metal, hippie ragas, and outlaw country into one blasted, raw whole.

Full of raging, dirt-earth pounding slabs of swamp heat, haunted redemption, and bell towers of experimentation, Brother Dege's album Folk Songs of the American Longhair is a tour de force artwork that rages from barn burners to ancient Delta meditations to whirlwind slide-loop hurricances. Like the Delta masters, it is emotion-packed, imperfect, flawed, desperate, yet insanely alive and vibrating with an X-variable hidden deep in our human core. Recorded in a shed behind his house in Louisiana, Legg composed the ten original tunes in the slide-Delta tradition, painstakingly paying tribute to the old masters while tossing faux-retro, hillbilly hokum into the trend hopping dust bin that it belongs. Much like the field recordings of Alan Lomax, the album tunnels into the ancient mysteries of pre-war blues and its devil-obsessed masters. In a return to the crude basics, almost all of the tracks feature only one vocal, one slide guitar and one foot stomping. Folk Songs of the American Longhair could possibly be the Delta-slide, millennial reboot for generations to come.

In 1994, Dege Legg founded the underground, southern psych-rock band Santeria, which toured and gigged in relative obscurity for 10 years, pounding out a strange variety of swampedelic, "psyouthern rock" that relied less on chest-thumping and beer guzzling, and more on quasi-mystical attempts at hayseed transcendence.

In 1997, Dege Legg recorded and released Bastard's Blues, a hand-dubbed cassette release. The album in many ways has served as the blueprint for all his following solo releases - [http://brotherdege.blogspot.co.uk/]

Thanks for the Elmore James share, RYP. If it's OK with you, I'd also like to extend ongoing thanks to two bloggers who have comments disabled on their sites: Jillem and marcfrblues. Their generosity, like yours and Gyro1966's, deserves all of our gratitude. The legion of other posters on TZ do too, but if I try to name them all I would inadvertently offend someone by leaving them out.

"Time Is on My Side" is a song written by Jerry Ragovoy (using the pseudonym "Norman Meade"). First recorded by jazz trombonist Kai Winding and his Orchestra in 1963, it was covered (with additional lyrics by Jimmy Norman) by both soul singer Irma Thomas and the Rolling Stones in 1964.

Winding session arranger Garry Sherman contacted friend and colleague Ragovoy after Kai had expressed an interest in going in a more commercial and rhythmic direction (in gratitude for the gig Ragovoy granted Sherman 50% of the publishing rights, which he kept until an expensive divorce in 1983)[citation needed]. But Ragovoy had thought of no lyrics for the song other than "time is on my side". Produced by Creed Taylor and engineered by Phil Ramone, and including background vocals by Cissy Houston, Dionne Warwick and Dee Dee Warwick, the recording was released on the Verve Records label in October 1963.[wiki]

Thanks for the Rev, Peyton stuff, Dado! I've seen him do short sets at festivals (actually, the same short set multiple times). Nice to see some older stuff, and the variety on his full-length CDs. Much more versatile than he was live.

Johanna Lapp said...

Here's a very tame request for a very wild crowd: Leo Sayer? I only recognize two of his song titles, but his sound tickles my nerdy bone. Any help here? I'd be most grateful.

Stones recorded two cover versions of Time Is On My Side, about 5 months apart, after hearing the original vocal version by Irma Thomas which is a perfect example of gospel evolving into soul. I don't know how anyone had the balls to do this after hearing Irma.

Rocking Bear, you're welcome. Have a great weekend listenening,

Johanna Lapp said...

Thanks, Monty and Anon, for Leo Sayer. We wanted to learn one song for s festival campfire. Now we'll have a two-week argument about which one. But Long Tall Glasses seems like the one to beat - a solid, rowdy choice that would work on banjos.

Johanna Lapp said...

Sorry! Rocking Bear is never anaonymous! My lazy eyes missed the man to thank.

RugbyLad said...

Another Tanks to CrazyLegs for the Brother Dege, as I continue my Americana musical education. How he has been under my radar, I do not know. Also thanks for Rev Peyton Big Band, saw him at some past festival but never heard his studio recordings

RugbyLad said...

Dado thanks for Rev Peyton!!!

Aging Child said...

Thanks, @Montys and @Rocking, for the Leo Sayer - great upgrade and expansion of what I had!

And @Johanna: Leo on banjo? Well, why not? - and that's a great choice of songs to use... and would be worth hearing.

Cheers!
