If you click on the nifty Amazon boxes, you can usually sample the music. If you like it, buy it and your Amazon purchase will help defray the costs of NESP and OFTV projects. Many albums can now be downloaded directly from Amazon — no shipping (yay!), no waiting (yay!!) and frequently cheaper than the physical CD. Individual songs can be downloaded as well.

This week’s blurbs are all written by Alicia (ain127 on NESP). She’s great at finding what’s fun and current. If you want to write a CD blurb, send an email to margaux@oneforthevault.com with the Amazon link and your blurb, and I will consider it for an upcoming edition of One for the Vault.

Let us know in comments if you find something you like in our suggestions.

Night Train to Nashville
Tab Benoit
Great blues album. He was honored at the annual Blues Music Awards in Memphis last May as well as B.B. King. This recording is from a two-night performance in Nashville at The Place On Second Street just prior to the 2007 Blues Music Awards ceremony.

Tapestry-Legacy Edition (2-CD)
Carole King
Ok do I really need to review this one? Who hasn’t heard it? But I grew up with it, my Dad loved it and played it at least once a week. I just had to include it.

From Donny With Love
Donny Osmond
Somewhere me and my home girls were talking about The Don man so I just had to include it too. Yes it’s puppy love, and not too bad either. Donny’s just not my thing but it cool that he can still sing it. You go Donny!

Otis Blue: Otis Redding Sings Soul [COLLECTOR'S EDITION] [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED]
Otis Redding
Another one I’m sure I don’t need to go into detail about, but some songs might sound familiar. How about “Change Is Gonna Come”, I think I remember someone singing that on some TV show a few years ago, what’s his name. Oh yeah Taylor Hicks!!

This Was [IMPORT]
Jethro Tull
Wow these guys rock, looks like this is a 2 disc set. Disc One contains the mono version of the album plus nine BBC tracks, Disc Two features a new stereo mix of the album plus four bonus tracks from rare early singles: ‘Sunshine Day’, ‘Song For John Gee’, ‘Love Story’ and ‘Christmas Song’. No samples available and it looks like it’s an import so it’s a little costly, but they rock, so hey why not check it out.

Nine Lives
Steve Winwood
Another one with no samples, gee I hate that. But it looks like all new songs. Cool. With guest appearance by Eric Clapton on Eric Clapton Dirty City.

Live in Chicago (2008) [DVD]
Dave Specter
I think this is the first DVD we have put up here but I just couldn’t resist. Recorded live at Buddy Guy’s Legends and Rosa’s Blues Lounge, another place our man Taylor played at. Special guest performances by Jimmy Johnson, Tad Robinson and Sharon Lewis, and commentary by Dave as a special feature.

The Way I Play: Live in Chicago [LIVE]
Bobby Broom
Another Jazz cd, another live cd, and another cd recorded in Chicago. I think I’m in the wrong state. I love live jazz, there is something special about hearing the people in the background. Imagine sitting having a beer and hearing someone like this play wow.
