	Blue Footed -- Recommendations and Resources (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The plural of ''foot'' is ''feet'', and this pair is one of seven mutated English plurals.
		The structures of the human foot and hand are variations on the same basic five-digit anatomy, in common with many other vertebrates.
		"One Foot" is a snowboard trick with a risk - one foot is not strapped into the bindings, instead it is placed beside the rear binding and boned far away from the board at airtimez.

		He plays good electric piano on "Big Legged Mamas" and "Blues With a Feeling"; at the beginning of the latter, he explains to the audience that they should clap on the 2 and 4 beats, not the 1 and 3, because this is "schvartze" music.
		Blues Guitar Greats is a non-stop parade of exemplary ax work: A great sampler and good starting point for those who want to delve into the extensive Delmark catalogue, a label synonymous with great contemporary Chicago blues for 40 years.
		Newcomers to the blues should be forced to sit down and listen to the Muddy Waters late-'40s/early-'50s repertoire in which the "old man" sang with only the rudimentary accompaniment of Little Walter's harmonica, Big Crawford's bass and, occasionally, Baby Face Leroy's guitar or Little Johnnie Jones' piano.

	ZZ Top - Music Downloads - Online
		They were formed in 1970 in and around Houston from rival bands the Moving Sidewalks (Gibbons) and American Blues (Hill and Beard).
		As genuine roots musicians, they have few peers; Gibbons is one of America's finest blues guitarists working in the arena rock idiom -- both influenced by the originators of the form and British blues-rock guitarists like Peter Green -- while Hill and Beard provide the ultimate rhythm section support.
		They have continued to support the blues through various means, perhaps most visibly when they were given a piece of wood from Muddy Waters' shack in Clarksdale, MS.

	Las Vegas SUN: One foot in the Blues
		Entering the House of Blue's main complex - the property also includes the top-floor Foundation Rooms, and some blues-themed hotel rooms, which were not on my Friday pre-opening tour - one is immediately aware of everything at once.
		To be in the courtyard is to be in rhythm and blues itself - the human soul made bare.
		The rooms are reserved for members of the House of Blues Foundation, a nonprofit organization created by HOB founder Isaac Tigrett to promotes artistic expression, racial harmony and the venue's musical namesake through scholastic programs and scholarships.

	Johnny Adams: 1932-1998
		His music drew on blues, rhythm and blues, soul and jazz, and he was capable of polished and expressive performances in any of those styles.
		He scored a substantial hit in 1959 with the single "I Won't Cry", and followed it with another, "A Losing Battle", in 1962 (the record was written and produced by Mac Rebennack, better known as Dr John).
		The emblematic title One Foot In the Blues perhaps summed up his philosophy as well as any -- the blues were always present in his work, but that second foot could be planted in any of several different styles.

	Reviews of Eagles \| Hell Freezes Over, ZZ Top \| One Foot in the Blues, and Monkees Reissues
		ZZ Top, One Foot in the Blues (Warner Bros. 1994) -- Though ZZ Top may have lost its lustre in recent years, there's no question that this Texas-based power trio is one of America's premier blues rock bands when they crank it up.
		One Foot in the Blues is a chronicle of the first 20 years of the band (when they recorded for Warners); while it has some characteristics of a greatest hits album, it's really a greatest blues-blast album.
		The 17 cuts on One Foot in the Blues are selected from throughout ZZ Top's career, and fairly represent the band at its power blues best.

	Johnny Adams (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		On One Foot in the Blues, the masterful New Orleans crooner known as the "Tan Canary" smolders through a tasteful songbook alongside some solid jazz stablemates, including alto-saxophonist and former Jazz Messenger Donald Harrison, veteran guitarist Jimmy Ponder, and organist Dr. Lonnie Smith.
		Adams's effortless power wells up at a moment's notice on the delicious title tune and two numbers penned by blues poet laureate Percy Mayfield, whose work was the subject of an entire Adams set a few years back.
		Here Adams's other foot is tapping out ballad tempos on such jazz standards as "Ill Wind" and "Angel Eyes." In the past he has displayed a more natural flair for RandB and pop material -- but there isn't a tune out there that Johnny Adams can't spin into gold.

	Waterloo Records - ZZ Top : One Foot In The Blues
		Although the band were known first and foremost as arena rockers by the late '90s, most longtime ZZ Top fans knew that the Texas trio's roots lay in blues, especially evident in the classic early '70s Warner's albums.
		ZZ Top's former record co-compiled 17 of the band's tastiest blues tracks from throughout the years, focusing on many long-lost and forgotten tracks that sound as vibrant today as they did when first recorded.
		You can't go wrong with such killer boogie-woogie as the album opener "Brown Sugar" (no relation to the Rolling Stones hit of the same name), the calm "Hot, Blue, and Righteous," or the latter-day rocker "My Head's in Mississippi," to name but several.

	Blues Reviews
		Jackson's music is deeply rooted in the Mississippi blues tradition and indeed the first songs he recalls playing were blues numbers.
		Fletcher is one of those guitar players who's obviously studied those old blues records intently, absorbing all the great blues styles from B. King (a big influence) to T-Bone Walker and playing it all with impeccable phrasing and a great tone.
		Other highlights include the ominous, murky swamp blues of "My Home Is A Prison" with Wilson's vocals sounding like he's singing from the bottom of a barrel and the shuffling instrumental barn burner "Club Zanzibar" (named after a Chicago club where Muddy, Wolf and Little Walter used to play).

	Jim Campilongo — Presskit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		A master of the electric guitar, he weaves in spaghetti western picks, blues chords and jazz refs into his haunting tunes, a combo of originals and covers.
		Only on the venerable war-horse Folsom Prison Blues did the band burn with a white heat as opposed to the blue flame over which the majority of the set simmered.
		On Heavy [Blue Hen Records], however, his two muses merge in a swirling melange of twisted Western swing, skewed Bakersfield twang, ominous surf, and over-the-limit, hot-rod jazz.

	Blues Access: New Releases
		Allen's left-field lyrics and lack of adherence to blues form might put off purists, but his song/poems and instrumentation (slightly reminiscent of Tom Waits) have a way of sneaking up on you.
		Judging from the cover photo (it's him as a geeky teenager doing his best blues snarl with his sister beating an Indian drum), he's been at it for a time, and this homegrown disc grows on you like the corn in his home state.
		Not to be confused with the guitarist who adds Shepherd to the name, Kenny Wayne cut this disc of piano-based blues live, and it has a nice, spontaneous feel, paying tribute to his background and forging his own sound at the same time.

		He has been regarded as one of the most promising young blues musicians both home and abroad, and at 26 years old continues to carry on the spirit of American roots music.

	Long John Hunter - One Foot in Texas
		Texas blues legend Long John Hunter’s first recording in five years was well worth the wait as it not only marks his return to the studio, but also introduces his younger blues brother Tom, a well-seasoned and satisfying singer and guitarist in his own right, to the blues world.
		The Hunter Brothers reprise some of Long John’s classic material, debut several blues standards-to-be by Tom and wrap things up with an extended, upclose and personal track featuring just them, their guitars and their memories.
		It’s nothing less than a master class in Texas blues, enjoyably instructed by some of the best and brightest talents the lone star state has produced.

		If at times he resorts to using a bit of flash to get his point across, it is done effectively, always to heighten a song's meaning.
		I always have one foot in the blues.

		I wasn't ready for the golden gleam, But it burst through, Under a sky so blue, It was too bright a dream.
		I stood gazing past flowers under the sun, There was only one place to run, I had been reaching, and so I was undone, Because there stood you, Under the sky so blue, And lost in each other, we had both won.
		And I gave to you my life, When I said: "Please be my wife", And my eyes have never strayed, Through all the games that you have played, But now you have out-welcomed your stay, And you better listen when I say: Tonight you might be hummin', But your day is comin'.
