I just bought the lossless download for $2.25 (regularly $9.00) on Bandcamp here using the discount code hendrix, which is valid for @ the next 48 hours in honor of the 49th anniversary of Jimi’s passing on September 18, 1970.

Delivered swiftly after his 2018 breakthrough Lonesome as a Shadow, Lil G.L.'s Blue Bonanza is a companion of sorts to Charley Crockett’s 2017 Honky Tonk Jubilee. Like that record, this is a collection of covers knocked out quickly by Crockett and a crackerjack support band, but it differs in a significant way.
Where Crockett largely focused on country tunes for Honky Tonk Jubilee – tunes he didn’t necessarily play as country songs, mind you – he has a flexible definition of the blues, one that encompasses old George Jones songs, Tom T. Hall, and Danny O’Keefe’s sepia-toned '70s classic “Good Time Charley’s Got the Blues,” in addition to T-Bone Walker and Jimmy Reed.

Continuing the Vince Guaraldi theme tonight. I have a quality Manhattan in Hand And this takes me to whatever venue Vince played.

Big thumbs up! Little disappointed to learn that Steve Cropper’s parts were overdubbed. Guess I love the purity of concept. Regardless, I thought it was huge “paying of respects” by the funkiest band of all time and, it works.
