Volume 7, Number 11

Shemekia Copeland is following in her late father's footsteps as one of the most dynamic blues performers on the modern scene. Her new CD for Alligator is this month's Pick Hit.

Traditional blues duo Cephas & Wiggins are like a fine wine ... they keep getting better with age. Their latest disk, Somebody Told The Truth, is this month's Surprise pick.

Veteran reviewer Graham Clarke undertook several mammoth projects this month, including a review of a vintage B.B. King box set and a comprehensive look at the classic blues recordings of Chicago guitarist Otis Rush. You'll find it all in this month's Flashback.

This month's What's New section includes new releases from Little Milton, Earnest Davis, Floyd Lee, The Blasters, Nick Moss, Larry Garner, Derek Trucks, John Mayall, and a special tribute to the music of Bo Diddley.
