From East Side Slim:

The year 2022 was a very good music year in all genres, but the blues was exceedingly rich with amazing releases. A rebound of sorts from the depths of pandemic? You betcha! Producing the list this year was the most difficult yet in my years of doing this sort of thing – my initial ‘culling’ was 53 albums, without including compilations or reissues. SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC! My personal thanks for every singer, artist and musician choosing to create and release the healing balm that is blues and roots music. Now good reader, get out there and listen up, and please be good to each other! East Side Slim (Rhythm Highways)
