1) BAND OF GYPSIES / Jimi Hendrix
2) LAYLA AND OTHER ASSORTED LOVE SONGS / Derek and the Dominoes / (Eric Clapton)
3) WILLIE DIXON / Box Set / Assorted Artists
Some notes/prizes:
The SILVER MEDAL goes to the Hendrix album. He can really get his guitar to really sing and emote! Great stuff, even if it was a bit long!
The BRONZE MEDAL goes to the Clapton album. Just could not get into it. Some stuff was definitely good, but it just didn't touch my spirit as much as some other stuff I listened to today.
The easy winner of the GOLD MEDAL goes to the Willie Dixon box set. Wow! It was mostly by old electric blues that was just absolutely grooving. Muddy Waters and Bo Diddley were just two of the artists on it. So much groove in the music. And the guitar tones and sounds in general were so cool.
