7. Chuck Leavell Back to The Woods The Rolling Stones keyboardist and former Allman Brother released one of his own dream projects, an outstanding tribute to the old pioneers of blues piano.
8. Paul Thorn What The Hell is Goin’ On?
The second most popular guy out of Tupelo, Mississippi is a perennial favorite of ours, and this set of cover tunes was a fun surprise. As much as we love Paul’s originals, the covers here are tons of fun, especially the title track, written by Elvin Bishop, with Elvin playing some guitar on it.
9. Bobby Whitlock and Coco Carmel Esoteric Bobby Whitlock is an amazing talent, from his work with Eric Clapton in Derek & The Dominos, to his music with Delaney & Bonnie and his own solo work. His wife Coco is a great singer, sax player and writer, and together they released a gem of a record.
10. James Luther Dickinson I’m Just Dead, I’m Not Gone The late James Dickinson was a superior talent, and a true icon of the southern music scene. His sons, Luther and Cody of The North Mississippi Allstars, back him on this fabulous live set.
