Cut of the Week 02/11/11

I'm currently working on an overhaul of Music Hound in the hope that I can make it bigger and even better. With that said, I may have to take a short break with respect to crafting new mixtapes/episodes. However, this is a great opportunity to take a step back and check out some of the older mixtapes I have labored over in the last year. Simply peruse through the archives and enjoy the mixtapes you may have missed or forgotten about.

In the meantime, I will continue to post Cuts of The Week and other fun odds and ends dealing with the music world. So, in the spirit of unearthing undiscovered treasures, here is the title track from Two Steps From The Blues by blues/soul legend, Bobby Bland. Despite being unknown by many (including myself until very recently), over the last 60 years Bland's signature voice has enabled him to carve out a deserved place for himself in the canon of superstar classic blues/soul artists in the likes of B.B. King, Solomon Burke, and Otis Redding.

He continues to perform live at the age of 81.

Give it a listen. Enjoy.
