📃 Review: Shirley Johnson – Selfish Kind Of Gal

Recensie: Shirley Johnson – Selfish Kind Of Gal Format: CD – Vinyl LP – Digital / Label: Delmark Records Release: 2025 i.s.m.Bluestwonmusic.nl | Tekst: Gerard Haarhuis Ik ben altijd blij als ik een album mag recenseren dat op het Delmark-label verschijnt of verschenen is. Korte, duidelijke bio, complete info over alle nummers en alle meewerkende artiesten worden genoemd bij de nummers mét de instrumenten waar ze daar op spelen. Zo ook, met het nieuwste album van Shirley Johnson: ‘Selfish Kind Of Gal’, min of meer een verzamelalbum maar niet echt want het zijn de “favoriete” nummers van Shirley zoals ze ze het liefste zingt bij haar live optredens, dus wel een volwaardig nieuw album!...........►►►

In Memoriam: Linsey Alexander

Photo by Art Voytovich.

 

Linsey Alexander’s family has confirmed that this Chicago blues master passed early this morning. Sad sad news for the blues community and for our Delmark family

Born in Mississippi and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Linsey Alexander discovered a down to earth city that truly understands and appreciates music on Chicago’s southside. In much the same way as many great blues artists before him, he grew up in a poor but honest and hard working family, learning early on that music has the power to lift the spirit and comfort the soul.

In Linsey’s own words, “Blues is not hard- it’s just a documentary about life”
