Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Charlie Parr - Rooming House (LP) (New (N))
""These folks here, in this record, have no idea what's wrong. Or how to help. They are sick with the longing to make everything better. And they can't. Tiny things are important. This house could be anywhere. These things could happen to anyone."" With this reflection, Charlie Parr introduces the characters of Rooming House, a conceptual folk opera that chronicles the lives of Upper Midwesterners through his quietly raucous, deeply rooted, and empathetic blues. These are songs of lost memories and hardship, but also of the improvised acts of kindness that help neighbors make do. Joined by celebrated drummer and fellow Minnesotan Dave King (The Bad Plus, Happy Apple), Parr cements his role as one of the great troubadours of our time with an album that becomes it's own small yet profound offering of care.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Hans Theessink - Analog Retrospective (LP, 180 Gram) (New (N))
When a musician has spent so many years 'on the road' and 'live in the studio', he's truly ripe for a 'Retrospective'. But this Analog Retrospective is something very special in the rich discography of Hans Theessink.The man with the distinctive baritone voice, who consistently avoids digital effects and relies on a natural, direct, and clear sound, also has a gigantic archive of analog tapes. And it was into this very archive that the Vienna-based musician delved deep, ultimately selecting nine gems of songs that can be considered the quintessence of his skill and work.Almost always by his side is his longtime American co- and/or background vocalist, Terry Evans from Vicksburg, Mississippi, who lends warmth and depth to seven of the nine songs with his powerful voice. The legendary Ry Cooder lends his guitar skills to two tracks without much fanfare. And he and bass player Jon Sass certainly don't fail to prove that even the mighty tuba can have a boogie. The result is a musically extremely diverse retrospective, primarily featuring compositions by Hans Theessink.This strictly limited and serialized album also captivates the audiophile community with it's sound. Hans Theessink's audiophile leanings and discerning ear are partly responsible for this. But above all, it's the sound engineer Christoph Stickel, who enjoys an excellent reputation worldwide for his purist 'Pure Analog Remastering.' He resides in Vienna with a wealth of vintage equipment and extensive expertise. So what could be more natural than commissioning this gifted perfectionist with the - naturally purely analog - reworking and remastering of Theessink's collection of gems? Christoph Stickel has done a superb job. Hans Theessink's distinctive, gruff voice comes across incredibly directly, almost tangible. The instruments reveal so many details that it's almost impossible to keep up with listening.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Bloomfield/Kooper/Stills - Super Session (LP) (New (N))
The musicians are aiming high with their desire for a ""Super Session"", for it's not something that can be planned. Only when the time, place, and audience play along, when one's lucky star is shining brightly, and the musicians have a good day, then one of music's great moments might be captured on tape. Not forgetting the recording technicians who also have to be in the mood! In 1968 this all happened to be the case with the majority of the nine numbers on the Columbia LP: ""Season Of The Witch"" (written by Donovan) in it's present version is one of them, as well as ""You Don't Love Me"" and the Dylan classic ""It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry"". All in all, one must consider the numbers with Steve Stills as most successful in the sense of a session because here each musician inspires the others. In the super session with Kooper and Bloomfield, the guitarist stands in the limelight while the other musicians back him up.Very often the three soloists even surpass the greatest moments of their own groups (Al Kooper's Blood, Sweat & Tears; Mike Bloomfield's Electric Flag; Steven Stills's Buffalo Springfield). In 1968 the magazine Rolling Stone judged this album to be one of the best releases of the year: an accolade which is completely justified and is still valid to this day. What better reason to get your copy of this ""highly recommended"" album without delay.."" Production: Al Kooper.""

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: John Hooker Lee - Don't Turn Me From Your Door [180 Gram] (Can) (LP) (New (N))
?John Lee Hooker is not only a mystery but also an interesting man to study. Some, like the author Jacques Demêtre called the musician from Mississippi » the rawest and African of all blues players from a musical point of view«, while the critic Net Hentoff was awestruck by Hooker's unfiltered power of expression that could scare the pants off a listener taken unawares. The numbers on this LP bear witness to the fact that Hooker's musical language could stir one's emotions deeply, even without the meaty 'boom boom'. Each title is like a raw diamond, which is intentionally uncut and is to be perceived with directness. With a stutter and a slur in his speech, the singer declaims his song over a twangy guitar, which is driven along by the rhythmic meter. A final farewell is taken sluggishly and sullenly in the forthright text of 'You Lost A Good Man', and even a song without words ('Misbelieving Baby') ponders a question in a purely instrumental monologue. Apart from a dash of boogie ('Pouring Down Rain') Hooker avoids all manner of sweet sounds and harmonies. He remains austerely raw, mercilessly honest, occasionally unforgiving and denies all thoughts of any kind regarding going 'back to the roots'. This sound IS the root of it all. Tracklist: Stuttering Blues Wobbling Baby You Lost a Good Man Love My Baby Misbelieving Baby Drifting Blues Don't Turn Me from Your Door My Baby Don't Love Me I Ain't Got Nobody Real Real Gone Guitar' Lovin Man Talk About Your Baby UPC: 4260019716057Label: Speakers CornerRelease Date: 9.4.26Format: Vinyl

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Johnny Winter - Johnny Winter (LP, 180 Gram) (New (N))
When an international weekly magazine calls a musician "the white pope of black art", then it sounds suspiciously like charitableness towards a blues musician in his prime, whose good years are in the past. As if! In the case of Johnny Winter, the reviews of his 2011 tour were just as glowing as in his early years, when Rolling Stone magazine described the gaunt Mississippi bard as "a cross-eyed albino with long fleecy hair playing some of the gutsiest fluid blues guitar you have ever heard". Intentional or not: Winter was able to win for himself some of the 'rocker' laurels that were reserved for the young Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix. But Winter let everyone know that he was only interested in the blues, gutsy, evoking Howlin' Wolf's and Muddy Waters' growling groove, yet nimble-fingered enough on the strings to conjure up astoundingly sleek garlands of sound that fit precisely into each bar of music.Winter remains pretty cool when people attempt to identify personal afflictions in his music: -»When I play blues, I feel good-« he stated recently to a journalist. That the same goes for over 40 years ago is substantiated by both sides of this debut album..

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Buddy Guy / Wells,Junior - Play The Blues (LP, 180 Gram, Remastered) (New (N))
The blues is perhaps one of the most private things from which a human being can suffer. However, to play the blues, and thus to express a man's innermost feelings and state of mind, is probably the most important task of black music. With Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, we have two disciples from the world of the blues who express their highly personal blues with profound instrumental proficiency. The enormously talented, self-taught guitarist Buddy Guy was ranked 23rd in Rolling Stones magazine's list "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time", and several times he was awarded one of the coveted Grammy awards. Junior Wells entered Muddy Waters' 'academy' at the tender age of 18 and played the blues harp with enormous passion and virtuosity. In this recording, the musicians condense their rock playing over a bone-dry bass line to create a mantra-like funky style ('A Man Of Many Words'), passing on with fleet-footed steps to a slender chirping sound on the mandolin with a 12-bar blues construction and creating an earthy groove ('T-Bone Shuffle'). Then the duo works perseveringly on an unrelenting chord ('A Poor Man's Plea'), only to return to two numbers that pulsate forcefully with a snappy and jagged offbeat ('This Old Fool'). The handpicked band, among them being co-producer Eric Clapton who is eternalized on the rhythm and bottleneck guitar, and the voodoo rocker Dr. John who occasionally contributes his magic on the keyboard, make this album a truly collectible sound experience. This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under www. Pure-analogue. #com.

Alliance Entertainment Various Artists - Antone’s 50th Presents Chicago Bound: Honoring Muddy, Cliff & Blue (LP) (New (N))
Clifford Antone had it right: “THE BLUES IS SO BIG that no one person could ever learn it in a lifetime.” So, when Antone’s called upon their family of blues legends to put together a four-disc set to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Antone’s Nightclub, Antone’s: 50 Years of the Blues boxed set (New West Records, 2025) – of course they came up with more blues than they could possibly fit into one glorious collection. It soon became clear that this embarrassment of blues riches was the start of their next project. Antone’s 50th Presents Chicago Bound: Honoring Muddy, Cliff & Blue (Blues Till 2 Recording Co. / Select-O-Hits) caps the club’s 50th anniversary celebration while pointing toward its future. The lead single is “Hangin’ on a Cliff,” by Billy F Gibbons and the BFGs; internationally known as the guitarist, primary songwriter and vocalist of ZZ Top, Gibbons has always had a strong connection to the blues, Antone’s, and its founder, his friend “Cliff.” Live-to-tape recordings produced by Jacob Sciba and Zach Ernst include tracks by blues heavyweights John Primer, Doyle Bramhall II, Kim Wilson & the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Anson Funderburgh, Lurrie Bell, and Lavelle White. Other highlights include a Bobby Bland classic by powerhouse Houston vocalist Kam Franklin and backed by Bobby’s son and drummer Rodd Bland, and a Clifton Chenier deep cut led by Louisiana torchbearers Ivan Neville and CC Adcock along with Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Jimmie Vaughan (the latter on harmonica!). The breadth of talent found across the album’s ten songs is a testament to the enduring legacy of Austin’s Home of the Blues and its beloved founder Clifford Antone, who passed away in June of 2006.

Alliance Entertainment Pre-Order: Janiva Magness - Truth in the Room - The Clearmountain Sessions (LP) (New (N))
Few voices in Contemporary Blues carry the lived weight and luminous authenticity of Janiva Magness. Born in Detroit and forged by a childhood marked by hardship and loss, she found in music not just a calling but a lifeline. Over a career spanning more than three decades and 18 releases, she has built one of the most honest and enduring bodies of work in American roots music. Along the way she has earned multiple Blues Music Awards, a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album, and the B.B. King Entertainer of the Year award, one of the genre's highest individual honors. Live performance has always been the truest expression of who she is. Fans have long clamored for a recording that could capture what they experience in the room with her: that electricity, that give-and-take, the sense that something unrepeatable is unfolding in real time. For years, Magness held off, knowing the terms had to be right. That moment arrived with 'Truth in the Room - The Clearmountain Sessions'. Recorded at Berkeley Street Studios before an intimate gathering of 150 invited guests and engineered and mixed by the legendary Bob Clearmountain, the album captures not just the performance but the atmosphere, the warmth, and the irreplaceable chemistry between a great artist, her band, and an audience that is fully, joyfully present.

Alliance Entertainment Delbert McClinton - Live From Austin TX (LP, Indie Exclusive Red White & Blue) (New (N))
Delbert McClinton has performed on Austin City Limits 7 times. This 1982 performance is considered one of his more legendary performances. You can call Delbert's music "Texas roadhouse blues" if you want to, but you might as well give up trying to pin a label on this guy. He was born in Lubbock, but you'd never know it from the sound of that growling, gravelly, funky voice. Maybe growing up in Fort Worth explains the difference, since he developed his R&B chops early-on playing in the house band at Jack's Place, a notorious, rough-and-rowdy late-night joint. That's where they shared the stage with the likes of legends Bobby Blue Bland and the infamous Jimmy Reed, Delbert's main man. He wandered out to L.A. for awhile and helped propel Emmylou Harris's career with his song, "Two More Bottles of Wine," then released two classic pre -"progressive country" albums with partner Glen Clark. -Terry Lickona (Producer Austin City Limitsr)Available on vinyl for the first time, this title is also available on CD, DVD and CD/DVD combo pack.
