The BoneshakersIs it too early to declare a 2025 blues album of the year? Perhaps, but I don't know that any other new release will surpass The Boneshaker's latest, Live To Be This, our Pick Hit for the month.

The Bluesmasters aren't new to the scene, but adding singer Cassie Taylor to the lineup has taken their soulful blues to another level. Their self-titled album is our Surprise pick of the month.

This month's Flashback covers the new compilation of the best of Koko Taylor, Crown Jewels, on Alligator Records. Plenty of great stuff from her catalog, all re-mastered to sound even better than before.

Our What's New section features new albums from Larry McCray, Maria Muldaur, David M'ore, Brad "Guitar" Wilson, Long Tall Deb & Colin John, All Things Swamp, Alan Arena, Rusty Ends, and more.
