My new favorite album (this week).

Kenny Wayne Shepherd (@KWShepherd) is at the top of his game with his new album.

Great tunes…silky-smooth production…razor-sharp guitar.

(Definitely worth a listen.)

A tribute album here from ​Kaliopi & The Blues Messengers​.

Homage to the pioneering Blueswomen, Memphis Minnie.

Nice job.

Shows off the richness of material that came from the true Blues trailblazers.

As good now as ever.

Ghost Hounds​ (@GhostHounds) has a deluxe version of their ‘First Last Time’ album.

A happening trend in the album-verse.

3 additional acoustic tracks make this one deluxe.

The album’s terrific and the new cuts are great.

(So viva la Ghost Hounds.)

Foghat (@FOGHAT)​...

...Wow.

Just the name brings back memories of getting my eardrums busted up at The Whiskey.

Their new album presses all the right Blues-Rock buttons though.

A worthy addition to this legendary band’s catalog.

(Me likey.)

Some backstage secret decoder ring info from ​Kenny Wayne Shepherd​ (@KWShepherd).

About one of the singles from his upcoming album.

I’d love it if more artists did this.

It’s great to hear these stories in their own words.

More please.

My new favorite album (this week).

​Mark Joseph’s​ (@MarkJosephMusic) new album is fabulous from the get-go.

A great mix of originals and covers.

Best backing vocals I’ve heard this year too.

(Definitely worth a listen.)

@ThatEricAlper The three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
...The day the music died

(Just my fave)

[Jon @jonberes1]

Samantha Fish​ (@Samantha_Fish) & ​Jesse Dayton​ recorded this video at The Texas Music Cafe.

It’s one of Sam’s originals.

Always a joy to see these two perform together.

They’re very musically simpatico.

(Plus, they color-coordinate so well too.)

TD Lind’s been flying under the radar…now he’s back as ​TD Lind & The Aviators​.

His latest is a double set recorded live at The Grape in Ventura, CA.

Great sonics. You’d think you had a ringside table.

Here’s some young-gun Blues Rock from the ​Chase Walker Band​ (@Chasewalkerband).

Chase is only 25 but he’s already got a resume that stretches back 10 years.

There’s a whisper/tease of a new album too.

(It should be worth some attention.)

My new favorite album (this week).

I couldn’t resist this!

Brainstormed by the late Pete Brown (Cream collaborator) & @QuartoValley.

All-star musicians everywhere.

(Definitely worth a listen.)

[Jon @jonberes1]

Robin Trower​ (@robintrower) got together with ​Sari Shorr​ to make a blazing duet of an album.

If you’re a fan of either you’ll enjoy this record.

This musical combination though … well, it soars.

[Jon @jonberes1]

Eric B. Turner’s​ (@DrEricBTurner) been entertaining folks for a while now.

But this album is a coming out party of sorts.

The man has the vocal and emotional range to sing anything.

And this album is people’s exhibit #1.

You take a musical risk when you tackle Bill Wither’s “Ain’t No Sunshine.”

But when you’ve got ​Matt Andersen’s​ (@matt_andersen) vocal firepower, the odds are in your favor.

Matt pours everything into this live performance.

And I mean everything!

[Jon @jonberes1]

My new favorite album (this week.)

Robert Finley’s​ (@therobertfinley) partnership with Dan Auerbach & Easy Eye Sound has been very fruitful.

Their latest collaboration is another hit I think.

(Definitely worth a listen.)
