ItÆs always sad when, for whatever reason, a worthwhile recording goes unreleased for a long time ù and thatÆs exactly what happened with Pepper's Hangout. On March 29, 1977, a 48-year-old Jimmy Johnson entered a Chicago studio and recorded what was meant to be his first studio LP as a leader. The LP had a working title of "Chicago Roots," and Living Blues editor Jim O'Neal was hired to write the liner notes. But regrettably, an album that should have come out in 1977 wasnÆt released in the U.S. until 2000, when Delmark was finally able to release the session as Pepper's Hangout. Better late than never ù this CD finds Johnson in fine form and makes one wish that the singer/guitarist hadnÆt waited until his late 40s to record some albums. Though Johnson includes one soul number (Eddie JonesÆ "The Things I Used to Do"), this is a blues disc first and foremost ù and Johnson is as passionate and confident on Robert HigginbothamÆs "High Heel Sneakers" and Tony HollinsÆ "Married Woman Blues" as he is on original material like "Looking for My Baby" (which inspires comparison to Buddy GuyÆs "Hello, San Francisco") and the instrumental "PepperÆs Hangout." Delmark, to its credit, provides two sets of liner notes: O'Neal's original notes from 1977 and some new ones that he wrote 23 years later in October 2000. Without question, the release of this session in the U.S. was long overdue. ........................................................................ tRACK iNFORMATION 01 Same Old Blues 4:34 02 Married Woman Blues 5:24 03 High Heel Sneakers 4:49 04 The Things That I Used to Go 5:07 05 Pepper's Hangout 4:20 06 Looking for My Baby 6:04 07 Riding in the Moonlight 4:00 ........................................................................ gROUP mEMBERS Rippers: Umm Yea We Have a few ;) ........................................................................ gROUP gREETS BERC - BOS - DISS - FWYH - LOGOS KSi - EGO - rH - YARD - aPC - AMOK ViC - OZM - WOS - ITS - gF - AMRC ........................................................................ gROUP nEWS We Came into the Scene With a Bang in 2001 with over 3800 Releases of awesome Tunes for the year.We Hope to Carry on The Tradition in 2002.We will be Rockin even harder and faster in 2002 and Remember "It's not the Year that Matters it's the Music" aAF Forever!!! ........................................................................ cONTACT iNFORMATION We're looking for : ...ppl who make tues store pickups of cds on a regular basis... ...ppl who can get promos or pre street rls... ...ppl who have large cd collections... ...ppl with skill and experience who feel they can help us... ...ppl who can supply legal shells or bnc's... ...ppl who can supply hardware... ...siteop's who host 100mbit+ 200 gig+ mixed sites for affils... ...North American siteop's invite the force to pre 2k2 on your site...
