This week's show covers new music from Boston’s Cave In, London’s Kit Sebastian, Brisbane’s Confidence Man, and a great new single from Athens-based Σtella with an assist from London’s Redinho.
For the archive pick this week, Brendan digs up some liquid fire from side one of Super Session. That record came out in the summer of 1968, and it features the work of keyboard ace Al Kooper and former Electric Flag guitar maestro Mike Blookfield. (On side two, Stephen Stills plays the guitars, but we will save that for another time.) The tune in question here is entitled “Albert’s Shuffle,” which just has to be a nod to Albert King—one of the Three Kings of the Blues style. (B.B. and Freddie being the others.) Searing electric blues for your listening pleasure.
Of course, there are six more bonus tracks, but you have to sign up for our email newsletter to get those. It's pretty easy to do, if you just click this link. (And do so without fear. We won't misuse your email address, as this show is run by two guys, Mark and Brendan; Not some faceless corporation.)
Lastly, don't miss our fabulous Spotify playlists. We make one for each episode of the show, so grab the latest if you are up to date, and dig into previous episodes if you are new here, or just curious. Have a terrific week!
