Boz Scaggs ‘A Fool To Care’ Album Review

A Fool To Care demonstrates there is no better singer of white blues/ R&B/soul material around than Boz Scaggs.

We present part 1 of our guest columnists’ passionate views on the blues career of the immortal Robert Johnson.

The Crooked Brothers are superb instrumentalists and great songwriters: Thank You I’m Sorry is a terrific album.

The Prince of Elegance returns with ‘Avonmore’, his finest album in years, redolent with the sheen of Roxy Music.

Olenka and the Autumn Lovers’ ‘Hard Times’ is a perfect album for the change in season: melancholy, gorgeous and powerful.

The new album from Walter Salas-Humara is as original, as understated and as necessary as music gets these days.
