Luther Allison 1974 - Luther's Blues (2001 Expanded Remaster) [EAC FLAC] Luther Allison Luther Allison at the 1996 Riverwalk Blues Festival Wikipedia: Luther Allison (August 17, 1939 – August 12, 1997) was an American blues guitarist. He was born in Widener, Arkansas, and moved with his family to Chicago in 1951. He taught himself guitar and began listening to blues extensively. Three years later he began hanging around outside blues nightclubs with the hopes of being invited to perform. He played with Howlin' Wolf's band and backed James Cotton. Luther's Blues (2001 Expanded Remaster) Artist: Luther Allison Title: Luther's Blues Format: CD, Reissue, Remastered Producer: Joseph Peraino Release Date: February 27, 2001 Original Release Date: 1974 Label: Motown Records Catalog: 440 013 409-2 ASIN: B000059RVY Genre: Blues, Chicago Blues, Modern Electric Blues Duration: 70:26 Recorded at the Motown Recording Studios, Detroit, Michigan, USA in 1974. AllMusic Review by Thom Owens: Luther's Blues is where Luther Allison began to come into his own, developing a fluid, gutsy style full of soulful string bending. This album remains an effective slice of contemporary Chicago blues. Amazon.com Review by Rickey Wright: The second of three Allison albums issued on Motown's Gordy subsidiary in the 1970s, Luther's Blues captures the guitarist's uncovered-wire sound in its full glory. The crescendo ending of "Let's Have a Little Talk," one of five Allison originals here, is more than another standard variation on crowd-pleasing clichés. It's an apocalyptic, blues-wailing roar, with Allison's pleading vocal at its core. Berry Gordy turns up in the composer credits for one tune, "Someday Pretty Baby," which, along with "Part Time Love," trawls the company's early raw-edged back catalog. Even the funk-flavored "K.T."--an attempted hit single?--fits the mood. The three bonus tracks on this exemplary remaster nearly double the original LP's length, with a raw version of Freddy King's "San-Ho-Zay" glowing alongside an alternate version of Allison's "Bloomington Closing" and a lengthy medley from the 1973 Ann Arbor Blues Festival. 01.
