... just to avoid the ping-pong syndrome

That has to be the one (1002) on Tabby Thomas' "Blue Beat" label !
... and, btw, I *love* those questions where you not only need an ear-brain connection (where you either know or don't) but also can show some detective ability ... others may call "cheating"

I like that game of cheating too Stefan, but it's getting harder to find nice and good questions so an ear-brain is something I did with my bluesfriends many moons ago and it sharpens your music/sound observations. But I also "love" discographical Q's, that's why you are my hero with your terriffic website!

Ihre Q bitte!

ps that's Silas in front of his house in 1976

Who's that guy responsible for producing
1. quite a bunch of (US of A) (mainly) blues albums 1966 - 1974
2. some of them with really dull liner notes romanced by the guy himself ?

1st hint: One of the labels he had a producing contract with is my next "victim"

nope - that wasn't the guy I thought of --- Kunstadt's way of snipping together his album covers was *way* more decent than the liner notes of the man I have in mind !

2nd hint: The man I ask for simultaneously also worked for his own label (I recently already have built a discography for)

When you find him (Al) Marc, please tell him I am interested in his unissued material.

Many moons ago, when walking with Dick Shurman, the morning after the Brugge R&B festival in Belgium, Dick was there with Little Smokey and Lee Shot, we had a conversation about unissued recordings. He said that finding Al Smith, you'll probably find a goldmine of unissued blues.

Al Smith has passed on February 7,1974,Chicago,IL

As a matter of fact I saw him once as an MC on a European tour of American blues artist.
I can't remember the year.Brussels?T-Bone Walker,Jimmy Reed,Eddie Taylor a.o?
