[RESOLVED] Jimmy Witherspoon - Jazz Me Blues

Postby raycast » Tue Jan 01, 2008 4:17 pm

I read good things about this one...

Jimmy Witherspoon - Jazz Me Blues/Best Of (Prestige - 1998)
This is a fantastic jazz blues CD. This is perhaps my favorite blues album. You know the kind--filled with those sad slow blues songs. They really groove. But there are a number of faster songs, too, perfect for Lindy dancing, and these are modern classics, often spun by swing DJs.
[...]

Anyone? I couldn't find it so far. Also:
Jimmy Witherspoon - Singin' The Blues (1998)
Or any other Jimmy Witherspoon album, I've just the one "live at the mint" that was here in the forums.

Incredible! 2x karma for you! That was faaast! :dog:

So I have most of the tracks I've been recommended now. :-)
Now I just need to find the time to listen to them.

Can you post them into this existing Witherspoon thread:
http://www.anyswing.com/viewtopic.php?t=2423
so the album is in the main part of the forum, too, not just here in the requests section?

(I can copy the text, but if you post it there yourself, people can give you karma and such)
