Lightnin' Hopkins & Billy Bizor Wake Up the Dead (CD) Album (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Wake Up the DeadCondition: NewDescription: EDITORIAL REVIEWS (2-CD set) Lightnin' Hopkins woke up The Dead when he played San Francisco in the 1960's and his song "Wake Up The Dead" is the centerpiece of this two and a half hour journey into the electrified world of Texas blues. Accompanying Lightnin' on this journey is his long time harmonica player, Billy Bizor. While Lightnin' had a prolific recording career, Bizor's stature is relatively obscure due to the lack of solo recordings he released during his lifetime. Fortunately, "Wake Up The Dead" seeks to rectify that situation by including the complete June 17, 1968 session with Lightnin' and Bizor, plus all of Bizors' 1969 solo recordings. As an added bonus, the rest of the April 11, 1969 session that could not fit onto Lightnin's "Shootin Fire" album (CICD-41169) is included on "Wake Up The Dead". The highlight of this session is the nine minutes of outtakes of "Mojo Hand". Never before have the complete tapes from all the aforementioned sessions been released until now. Furthermore, the tapes have been remixed from the original three and four track masters to accentuate the magical chemistry between Lightnin' and Bizor.Format: CDGenre: BluesArtist: Lightnin' Hopkins & Billy BizorNo Of Discs: 2Country/Region of Manufacture: USARecord Label: Code 7 - CicadelicEAN: 0845121091847Edition: AlbumRelease Date: 06/28/2024Style: BluesMPN: CICD6869Release Year: 2024Tracks: Disc 11: Wake Up the Dead2: Vietnam War3: Next Trip Down South4: Lonesome Life5: Pine Gum Boogie6: I'm Tired of Trouble7: My Suggestion8: You're Gonna Miss Me9: Walking Blues10: How Dooz It11: Feel Like Ballin' the Jack (Outtakes)12: Lightnin' Bolt13: Mojo Hand (Outtakes)14: Mojo Hand (Final Version)15: Shake That Thing (First Version)16: Moving On Out (Outtake)17: Free of Charge18: Old Man19: Screwdriver20: Whiskey Headed Woman21: How Dooz It (Alternate Version)22: Long Way from HomeDisc 21: T Model Ford2: Whiskey Head Woman3: Take It Easy Little Girl4: When I'm Dead5: Screwdriver6: You Knock Me Out7: I'll Never Do Right Again8: I'll Miss You So9: Tell Me Where You Stayed Last Night10: You Promised Me11: Let's Pitch One12: Whiskey Head Woman (Alternate Version)13: Screwdriver (Alternate Version)14: A Hot Spirit15: Billy Bizor Is Dead16: Just a Little Bit More Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
