Overview: Recorded live in April 1997 at Theatre St. Gilles on La Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, Luther Allison Live in Paradise captures the legendary guitarist in the final months ofa career that spanned five decades.
Overview: Four days prior to being diagnosed with a malignant lung tumor, Luther Allison played a blistering show in Montreal; it was filmed for later airplay on Canadian television, and most of the show is captured on this DVD. The bitter irony is obvious here -- Allison is at the peak of his powers, and yet at the same time, it could be said that he's playing like a man with only weeks to live. Performers include: Luther Allison: lead guitar, vocals; James Solberg: rhythm & lead guitar; Mike Vlahakis: keyboards; Ken Faltinson: bass; Robb Stupka: drums; and Memphis Horns (Wayne Jackson, Andrew Love).
Overview: With four incredible performances at the legendary Montreux Music Festival to his name to date, legendary bluesman Otis Rush offers a memorable look at just how it all began in this release of the 1986 performance that started it all. In addition to memorable appearances by Eric Clapton and Luther Allison, Rush and company offer thirteen rousing blues hits including "Gambler's Blues", "Lonely Man", "Mean Old World", and "Right Place, Wrong Time".
