Notes

One of many releases in the 1990s renaissance of the swamp blues group, Swamp Boogie Blues, is a hugely satisfying and enjoyable selection of swamp blues, expertly played by a band at the peak of their powers. Here the band does their thing with guest stars singing some of your favorite Swamp Pop hits!  Indeed, it’s hard to remember when the Boogie Kings sounded so alive as they do on this record – the playing is sensitive – but it’s the simple joy of making music that comes across more palpably. A relaxed confidence is the result, and Swamp Boogie Blues stands as one of the defining albums of the swamp blues revival. Released in November 1995, 20 tracks.
