[Harp-L] Sugar Blue MP3 on Amazon

["John F. Potts" <hvyj@xxxxxxx>]

Can't believe what i just found on Amazon at the following address:

http://www.amazon.com/Another-man-done-gone/dp/B0014CYVIA/ 
ref=sr_shvl_album_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1247629384&sr=301-1

It's an MP3 album titled "Another Man Done Gone" which consists of  
all the cuts from Sugar Blue's two French albums originally released  
in vinyl during the early 1980s in France on the Blue Silver label,  
under the titles "Crossroads" and "From Chicago to Paris."   
Absolutely great stuff that has not been readily available in the  
U.S. (or anywhere else, for that matter).

These 2 albums were released on a single CD  in France in the early  
1990s  called "From Paris to Chicago" and in Italy on a single CD  
called "Paris Blues"  both of which are out of print.  There was a  
Japanese release with the same cuts under the title "Another Man Done  
Gone" on Columbia which may not be out of print, but is almost  
impossible to find.

Anyway, the tunes are on this MP3 album are all the cuts from the 2  
French albums that were so critically acclaimed but have been long  
out of print.  Absolutely great stuff.  If you've never heard this  
material, it's definitely worth a listen.  This is the stuff that  
made me a die hard Sugar Blue fan.  Better than his Alligator  
releases, and it has the original versions of a couple of the better  
tunes from his latest CD.  This is the material Adam Gussow raves  
about on one of his YouTube videos, and are my favorite Sugar Blue  
recordings.

I'm excited that this stuff is now readily available, even if only in  
MP3 format.  If the limk doesn't work, just search for "Sugar Blue  
Another Man Done Gone" on Amazon.

Very sophisticated  harmonica playing and well worth a listen,  
whether you like SB or not.  Highly recommended.
