4th of July Music

Thought about this for the bbq. An amalgam that may not displease anyone. Monty Alexander plays the music of Bob.  Concrete Jungle and Stir it Up. Very good recordings also  I think u can’t  go wrong. Suggest others please.

"4th Of July" was written by Dave Alvin, originally of The Blasters, though briefly a member of X. Then a solo artist, and currently a partner with Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

The Blasters: Their 1980 album entitled "American Music". They were (are?) a Los Angeles band playing 100% American Roots Rock music: Rock 'n' Roll (meaning from the 1950's), Rockabilly, Blues, and Hillbilly. Their main songwriter, for you youngin's, was Dave Alvin.
