I write, too, Dept.
The quirky Chicago record label Delmark has remained in business and is celebrating their golden anniversary. They hit the 50 year mark during the official Year of the Blues. 50 years is nothing to sneeze at.
As the company is dedicated to releasing only blues and jazz that can say a lot. Listen to some of the music and draw your own conclusions.
Delmark celebrated the anniversary by putting out tasty collections that are tagged at rock bottom prices.
The official Year of the Blues might have already come and gone for all I know, but some people still got blues enough for all.
