Number 44 in the attempt to post 50 Americana Compilations on Sundays. It is going to be a close call but a bit of barrel scraping and Bloodshot Records Samplers just might get us over the line.
Bloodshot samplers from 2002, 2015 and 2016 have already featured. Today it is the turn of Sampler 2017.
A quick glance at the tracklist shows that by and large it sticks with the usual suspects with a couple of newbies thrown in for good measure.
It should come as no surprise that I'm sticking with the usual suspects!
Lets start with track 12 where we have Robbie Fulks with Alabama at Night taken from his album Upland Stories.
From his album Slingin' Rhythm we have Wayne Hancock and Killed Them Both, track 15 on the Sampler.
We conclude with the late Justin Townes Earle and perhaps his most famous song Memphis in the Rain - track 19 on the Sampler and taken from his album Nothing's Gonna Change The Way You Feel About Me Now.
I've seen all three perform albeit that Wayne was playing a short lunchtime set in Glasgow's Virgin Megastore and Justin was playing guitar as part of his dad's band.
Only six more to go. Can we do it???
Robbie Fulks - Alabama At Night
