Can't Stop Blowing: Snooky Pryor
The last four selections: Selection #10, #11, #12 and #13 were all defective and could not be played. This was a re-order of this CD because an older CD of the same title, in which selection # 12; I heard The News had gone bad (eventhough the initial CD that had gone bad had not been purchased through Amazon.com).

More Superb Snooky!
Snooky was 78 when this was recorded and is still singing great and playing great here.This was around the time that Snooky formed a partnership with guitar virtuoso Mel Brown, who is also sounding very good here. Mel had several records of his own and was with Bobby Bland for many years. His solos are always interesting with great technique, taste and tone.It's great to hear Snooky, one of the founders of Chicago Blues sing some of the all time great songs like It Hurts Me Too and Goin' Down Slow or Got To Find My Baby, but Snooky is a clever lyricist with several good ones here, including Slow Down and I Learnt My Lesson Well. A good mix of fast and slow ones, and over an hour of great blues!Snooky delivers great harp with some amazingly powerful vocals on this one, and although 78 years old, he doesn't miss a beat. Highest recommendations!
