Little Milton, Raise a Little Sand (Red Lightnin)

Its a seventies issue of his Sun and Bobbin recordings ... I already had the Sun stuff but had no idea he'd recorded for Bobbin' before moving on to Chess. And this stuff is freakin' awesome. Leaves me wondering whether is all of his Bobbin recordings or if there are any more out there.

Well I feel a little silly, now that I've consulted AMG and learned that Milton Campbell was co-founder of Bobbin. :blush:

But after finding some way expensive 45s at least I discovered that Collectables issued all of his Bobbin recordings and now both volumes are on their way, for under $16 total.

some LPs I just bought:

Apparently not, unless in Japan. It was MV10, 'ALone with the blues'. WHile I feel I may have seen it on a Japanese CD, I may be remembering Ray Bryant's LP of the same title.

MG

Thanks! Too bad, though ... the Ray Bryant is marvellous for sure - can't imagine the Red being similarly fine, but I'd still be interested in hearing it!

And since I just only caught it: r.i.p. Cozy Eggleston

Yes indeed! And I was even hesitating if I should get it ... had been totally unaware.

It's very strong indeed! (Don't have his ESP so far btw ... just the material with Cherry, the Impulses and the Flying Dutchmen, but all of that on CD, except "Symphony for Improvisers" which I've got both on CD and on Connoisseur LP)

Bought this a loooong time ago and am just getting around to playing it. Bigard must've not felt like tuning up or something, but his fingers are still limber, so maybe he wanted to put it there. Who knows? And Hodes + Deems is gonna work. It just is.

However...the back cover is autographed (or appears to be autographed) by (top-to-bottom) Hillard Brown(!), Art Hodes(!!), Franz Jackson(!!!!!!), and Jim Johnson(???). Not the band on this record, but still...I thought maybe the autographs were why the Half-Price was getting $9.99 for the LP, and it probably was, but the vinyl is minty-fresh-clean, so, hey, cake and icing and eat it too!
