ALLIGATOR'S HIDDEN GEMS - We are back highlighting some of the best releases from Alligator's extensive catalog that you may have missed. Each will be on sale for a limited time. Of course, you can hear samples on the www.alligator.com. Here are a couple of terrific albums you may be unaware of - 

ROOMFUL OF BLUES THAT'S RIGHT!  

"Crackling with energy, Roomful swagger, swan and most of all, swing."  —CHICAGO SUN-TIMES

 
"Fourteen-in-the-pocket tunes, powered by a new rhythm section and Roomful's legendary horn section. From elegant swing to hard boogie, Roomful Of Blues has tracked another winner."  —BILLBOARD     
 

The first Alligator release from the great "little big band" that has been joyously swinging and jumping the blues since the 1960s. With this album the band fires up 14 songs from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, powered by Chris Vachon's tough guitar, Mark DuFresne's giant voice and of course those brassy, bold Roomful horns. The band brings their huge energy and great musicianship to songs from Big Maybelle, T-Bone Walker, Little Milton, Fenton Robinson, Smiley Lewis, Jimmy McCracklin and more. No one else plays jump blues with the power, authority and danceability of Roomful Of Blues. 

Order THAT'S RIGHT! for the sale price of $14.98. Sale ends August 14. 

LIL' ED AND THE BLUES IMPERIALS FULL TILT   

"They blow down the walls. Dim the lights, turn up the stereo, and let the house party begin." —GUITAR PLAYER  
 

Not really a "hidden gem," but one of the best albums by Chicago's rawest, toughest, happiest blues band. Ed and the Imperials carry on the great Windy City tradition, with Ed's rip-it-up slide guitar and unvarnished, soulful voice inspired by his uncle, 1950s/60s Chicago blues giant J.B. Hutto. This wonderful band has been together with the same four musicians for over 30 years! FULL TILT, their 2008 release, is packed with 14 tracks of rockin', uptempo shuffles and intense slow blues. Includes fan favorites Hold That Train, Check My Baby's Oil and Woman, Take A Bow plus Ed's reworking of Hound Dog Taylor's Take Five. 

Order FULL TILT for the sale price of $14.98. Sale ends August 14.
