#Music from A to Z
GRAMMYS 2025 (Part 1)
Tumblr media
So, the nominees for the Grammy Awards have been announced. The 67th ceremony will take place on February 2, 2025. Let's see what's going on in the blues categories.
BEST CONTEMPORARY BLUES ALBUM.
- Joe Bonamassa
tops the list of nominees with his 16th studio album last year, "Blues Deluxe Vol. 2". Joe has previously been nominated for a Grammy three times, including in this category for the album "Royal Tea".
"The contrast between a brash 26-year-old and a solid 46-year-old is significant. Is the fire burning as brightly as before? Do I still have the same thirst for creativity? Am I good enough to pay homage to the heroes of my songs? The answer lies somewhere in this album."
Tumblr media
- Shemekia Copeland
participates in two more nominations besides this one: "Best American Roots Song" and "Best Americana Roots Performance", and all of them for the album "Blame It On Eve", which we recently introduced you to. Shemekia has previously received five Grammy nominations.
Tumblr media
- Steve Cropper,
legendary guitarist, producer and songwriter, twice Grammy winner in 1968 and 1994 and winner of six nominations. Few are able to create new bands at the age of 80, but Steve Cropper is nominated for a Grammy in this category for the second time with his rock and soul quintet Steve Cropper & The Midnight Hour, for the debut album "Fire It Up" in 2021 and for the second album "Friendlytown" this year. Cropper recruited Billy Gibbons, Brian May and Tim Montana. "If your heart doesn't shake at the first bars of this album, it means you're already dead," Steve jokes.
Tumblr media
- Ruthie Foster
and the album "Mileage". The tenth studio album by a folk-blues celebrity is a reflection on a life full of triumphs and losses. This is the story of the musical journey that led the "little black girl with a guitar" from singing in churches in rural Texas to numerous Grammy nominations (this is the sixth nomination) and collaborations with Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trax
Tumblr media
- Antonio Vergara
and the album "The Fury". This is not just a celebration of modern blues, but a masterpiece. The famous blues guitarist, singer and producer assembled an intercontinental cast of artists to create the album. Vergara hails from Ecuador and combines the influences of Chicago and Texas blues with his Latin American roots, creating a timeless, boundary-breaking sound. He is the first Latin American artist to be nominated for a Grammy in the Best Contemporary Blues Album category. Joe Bonamassa added the song "My Lucky Mojo" from this album to his personal Spotify playlist.
Tumblr media
- Cedric Burnside
and the album "Hill Country Love". Cedric is the grandson of the famous delta bluesman R.L. Burnside, and from the age of 13 he began to tour with his grandfather as a drummer (by the way, he has several Blues Music Award awards in this category). At the age of 30, he won the Blues Music Award in the category "Best New Artist Debut" for the 2008 album "Two Man Wrecking Crew" with Lightning Malcolm. Two more albums in 2015 and 2018 were nominated for Grammys, and "I Be Trying" won in the category "Best Traditional Blues Album" in 2022. Cedric says that hill country blues (blues of the northern Mississippi region) is in his blood. "It doesn't matter where I end up: if I move to Australia or France, I'll still stay hill country. You can't take that away from me.… I feel like I am hill country blues."
Tumblr media
- The Fabulous Thunderbirds
and the album "Struck Down". The band, which was founded in 1974 in Texas by Jimmy Vaughn, inviting Harper and vocalist Kim Wilson, who remains its only permanent member. In 1979-1983, the band released 4 albums, recognized as one of the most significant recordings of the "white blues", but not commercially very successful. In 1986, she won the Blues Music Award in the category "Band of the Year" and was twice nominated for a Grammy in 1987. Jimmy left the band in 1989 to record a joint album with Stevie Ray "Family Style". The recording of the album "Struck Down" was attended by Alvin Bishop, Bonnie Raitt, Mick Fleetwood, Keb Mo, Taj Mahal, Steve Strongman and famous music artist zydeco Teggapse Simien
Tumblr media
- Sue Foley
and the album "One Guitar Woman". A solo acoustic album by a Canadian blues guitarist and singer dedicated to the "female guitar pioneers" who left their mark on music, not only in the blues: Elizabeth Cotten, Memphis Minnie, Rosetta Tharp, etc. Sue also wrote the book Guitar Woman. In 2001, Foley won the Juno Award (the Canadian equivalent of the Grammy), received 17 Maple Blues Awards, was nominated several times for Blues Music Awards and twice won this award in 2020 and 2023.
- The band "Little Feat"
and the album "Sam's Place". The band, founded in 1969 in California, performed eclectic blues rock with elements of country rock, southern rock, rhythm and blues and soul. Among the many rock bands of the 70s, she stood out for her original sound and high performance skills. In 1979, after the death of their leader Lowell George, the band broke up. The reunion took place in 1987. The last album "Rooster Rag" was released in 2012, and it was the last to feature guitarist and vocalist Paul Barrere (died in 2019). Paul wrote the band's hits such as Skin It Back, Time Loves a Hero and Old Folks Boogie. And suddenly, in May of this year, a new album was released, where all the leading vocal parts were performed by Sam Clayton. He is a percussionist and backing vocalist, in the band since 1972. The album consists of cover versions of famous blues standards, except for the opening track.
Tumblr media
- Taj Mahal
and his sextet with the album "Swingin' Live at The Church in Tulsa".
There is no need to introduce this outstanding bluesman. He was nominated for a Grammy 9 times, won this award three times, and in the category "Best Contemporary Blues Album". And at the beginning of this year, at the famous Tulsa studio, a new album was recorded in front of a live audience in a typical genre for a musician, combining a variety of styles.

Flight b741, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (2024)
Tumblr media
King Gizzard are in a dry spell. No, not in the number of albums they’re releasing (don’t be silly) but in terms of quality. By my count Gizz haven’t put their name to anything notable since 2022, instead making metal for people who don’t listen to metal, needlessly convoluted pop or distracted, uninteresting rock. That streak continues on Flight b741, a sort of rootsy, bluesy work which, sure, is stylistically fresh – but in things that actually matter (songwriting, hook-writing, displays of musicianship) it’s all very tired and underthought.
Pick: ‘Mirage City’

Song #148
Bang a Gong (Get It On) by T. Rex
It was released in 1971 in their album Electric Warrior
youtube
Fun fact: This was the song that virtually ended the once-solid friendship between Mark Bolan and John Peel, after Peel made clear his lack of enthusiasm for it on air after playing his advance white label copy. Bolan and Peel spoke only once more before the former's death in 1977.
