Clark Street Ramblers Clark Street Ramblers

This album features the artists that have performed at Blue Chicago and reflects the many styles and moods of the blues heard in the club; Eddy Clearwater, Willie Kent and Johnny B. Moore give us songs with the vintage sound from the golden age of Chicago blues while Maurice John Vaughn and Michael Coleman get a bit funky with a more contemporary feel. And there's a whole lot more.

The contemporary Chicago blues scene remains a prosperous one, anchored by several highly successful clubs (including the two Blue Chicagos) and a number of prolific record labels. But the golden age of Chicago blues occurred when hallowed giants forged an entirely new brand of tough urban blues, with an exciting jolt of amplification, that changed the sound of blues forever. Here of are of the greatest blues performances ever recorded!

Willie Kent - Comin' Alive! Willie Kent - Comin' Alive!

After winning five W.C. Handy Awards, recording nine solo albums, appearing on countless blues magazine covers, and earning many other honors, West Side Chicagoan WILLIE KENT could easily slow down and rest on his laurels. Not a chance!

Never one to shy away from hard work, the bassist, bandleader, singer and songwriter outdoes himself on his first CD of the new millenium, which features several "firsts." COMIN' ALIVE! is Willie's first self-produced CD (with partners Twist Turner and Haguy F. King). It's also his debut on Blue Chicago Records as the label's first solo artist, a fitting honor for this highly respected, multi-talented musician who's been a mainstay at Blue Chicago nightclubs since 1985.

Backed by his ace band the Gents, with help from notable guests, Willie Kent takes listeners on an autobiographical musical journey: from Chicago's West Side, down to the Delta, back in the alley, out on the dance floor and finally to church. It's definitely a trip worth taking.
