Today’s cassette is Uncut (1979) by The Powder Blues. The Powder Blues, they’re local legends out here in Vancouver.

They make a certain kind of boogie-woogie blues style, which was kind of the rage in the 1930s and ‘40s, but they add a little bit of rock into it. The result is some peppy and danceable blues numbers—highly original, smooth, and it’s a lot of fun when you’re going for a walk.

This was their breakout album. I don’t think they’ve ever made an album better than this, but a lot of people remember it—good times. And sometimes you could catch a show by The Powder Blues every so often in Vancouver, though I haven’t seen one myself, but it’s good that they’re still going strong today.
