Another album I recommend this holiday is the eponymous Anne Briggs (1971). It is a recording of disciplined focus and high-test purity. Listen to "Living By The Water" (above) to hear what I mean.

"Living By The Water"
Another album I recommend this holiday is the eponymous Anne Briggs (1971). It is a recording of disciplined focus and high-test purity. Listen to "Living By The Water" (above) to hear what I mean.
"Santa Fe' Blues"
I'm enjoying The Best of Jimmy Yancey this Veterans Day holiday. Yancey was a boogie-woogie pianist and composer who never left his day job as a groundskeeper for the Chicago White Sox.
His wife Estelle, a.k.a., Mama Yancey, sings on quite a few tracks. "Santa Fe' Blues" (above) is a good example of the sonic elixir produced by the duo.
