New Bob Corritore & Friends Single ‘What Kind of Man is This’ ft. Koko Taylor – American Blues Scene


Widely acknowledged as the Queen of the Blues, Koko Taylor delivers this powerhouse Chicago Blues performance. Her trademark assertive vocals are equal parts sugar and salt, empowerment and vulnerability, and growl and grace. The band delivers the classic Chicago shuffle with two alumni of the Muddy Waters band (Bob Margolin and Willie “Big Eyes” Smith) plus Bob Stroger, Little Frank and Bob Corritore, whose Windy City harmonica provides the perfect foil to Koko’s voice.

All hail the Queen!

This very special installment of Bob Corritore’s From The Vaults series features great recordings from spectacular blues women. It surveys a wide geographic and stylistic spectrum from powerhouses Barbara Lynn, Carol Fran, Koko Taylor, Francine Reed, Diunna Greenleaf, Valerie June, Shy Perry, and Aliya Primer (John Primer’s daughter).

Bob Corritore has recorded all of these wonderful woman artists with great sensitivity to their stylistic and personal individuality! Behold a collection of spectacular, female voices, which collectively demonstrate both the undeniable power and empowering vulnerability of the feminine voice.
