Blueswomen and bluesmen: the Blues music thread

Snowy White's Blues Agency

I also like what he did on my favourite Thin Lizzy album, the underrated "Renegade".

Yes ! I love Renegade too !

It's the first album and first song i"ve heard from Thin Lizzy in the mid or late 80's, and i loved it from the start! I don't really know why this album met kind of hostile reviews from the critics and Thin Lizzy fans back in the 80's...great melodies and lyrics, in all cases.
It's too bad that Phil Lynott died so young. 

Yeah, Snowy co-wrote the title track with Phil. I immediately liked it the first time I heard it. Also love Angel of Death on the same album. I don't really get the hostile reviews either. Though the band were struggling as a unit by those days. Snowy admitted he didn't really fit in with the band (though I think he did musically), and left after that. There's a good write-up here about the album

c'est le meilleur pour moi Rory j'aurai adoré le voir en concert dans les années 80 ... mais à ce moment je ne connaissais pas dommage..

An underrated short lived band, Cry of Love, they did only two albums and their talented singer died a few years ago...still, their first album "Brother", blues rock album influenced by Free, Bad Company, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Hendrix...is fantastic!:

I quote myself ha ha!

If you like Cry of Love and especially his great singer Kelly Holland (RIP) here's some of his last recordings, sounding a bit like Cry of Love's fantastic first album, so bluesy rock soul mood..:

No Blu Rays and Dvds of the great John Campbell but at least two concerts on Youtube:

Another of the blues-rock greats worthy of mention here is Peter Green, and when he quit music in the early 70s he gave his '59 Les Paul to a young Belfast guitarist who went on to greater things...

Don't forget blueswomen !

I've been listening to a lot of Samantha Fish's albums these past few months...voice, guitar, lyrics...she's brilliant!
