Blues

The newest album from Rhiannon Giddens', You're the One is her third solo studio album and her first of all original songs. This collection of 12 songs written over the course of Giddens' career bursts with life-affirming energy, drawing from the folk music that she knows so deeply, as well as its pop descendants. Produced by Jack Splash (Solange, Alicia Keys, Valerie June), You're the One features some of Giddens' closest musical collaborators from the past decade, including multi-instrumentalists Francesco Turrisi and Dirk Powell, bassist Jason Sypher, and Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu. The album features electric and upright bass, conga, Cajun and Piano accordions, guitars, a Western string section, and Miami horns, among other instruments, capturing the inclusive spirit that channels through all of her work. <br/><br/>"I hope that people just hear American music," Giddens says. "Blues, jazz, Cajun, country, gospel, and rock-it's all there. I like to be where it meets organically. They're fun songs, and I wanted them to have as much of a chance as they could to reach people who might dig them but don't know anything about what I do. If they're introduced to me through this record, they might go listen to other music I've made with a different set of ears."

2 CD retrospective of John Mayall with extensive sleeve notes.. The seven concerts from which these recordings are taken span 1972 to '82, a 1982 Bluesbreakers reunion featuring Mick Taylor and John McVie and there are also jazz soloists from the lineup that produced what Melody Maker then regarded as John's finest album to date - 1972's Jazz Blues Fusion. In effect, the music on these 2 CDs takes you anywhere from the Flamingo Club to Fillmores East and West.

Laura Cox är ett nytt stjärnskott på rockhimmelen. Hon är redan framgångrsik i hemlandet Frankrike med sin skramliga rock som med säker hand blandar lite AC/DC, med en nypa Danko Jones och en släng Joan Jett. Med gitarren i högsta hugg och en skönt raspig rockröst minner Cox om forna tiders rockstjärnor.
