Mark Hummel in his younger days
Mon, 11/22/2021 - 14:39
Heard some samples from this new Electro-Fi CD on Mark's latest "Ultimate Harmonica Party" podcast, and right away ordered it (from Charlie Lange at Bluebeat Music, of course): Mark Hummel Proudly Presents East Bay Blues Vaults 1976-1988. Recordings of plenty of great musicians Mark worked with when he first came to the Bay Area, remastered for CD by Kid Andersen. Supposedly, Mark's making this a "limited edition" of only 1,000 CDs. (Of course, these days whenever a blues artist can actually sell a thousand CDs it's the equivalent of a million-seller.) Can't wait for it to arrive! And I'll update this thread with a review once I've got it in hand.
The Mark Hummel Proudly Presents East Bay Blues Vaults 1976-1988 CD arrived today. Very, very cool stuff. Order from bluesharmonica.com Contributor Charlie Lange at bluebeatmusic. Let's help Mark Hummel sell all 1,000 of his "limited edition" CD! (If a million-seller gets a Gold Record, will Mark get a "Aluminum Record" if he sells all 1,000?"
