Tennessee’s Robert Calvin ‘Bobby Blue Bland’ put out his first long-player Two Steps from The Blues in January 1961 on Duke Records. It was a 12-track ragbag of Duke 7″ singles – some titles stretching back as far as March 1957. From there on in – the rasping singer moved ever further away from his Blues and R&B roots and embraced Soul Music for the rest of his career. Which brings us to the two albums he made with Dunhill Records in the USA – kicking off his Seventies output

Biography by Bill Dahl. One of the most powerful and distinctive voices in blues and R&B, thanks to his steady stream of classic singles for Duke during the '50s and '60s. Bobby Bland-Jimmy Soul-Johnny Watson.
Bobby (Blue) Bland, the debonair balladeer whose sophisticated, emotionally fraught performances helped modernize the blues, died on Sunday at his home in Germantown, Tenn. a suburb of Memphis. He was 83. His death was confirmed by his son, Rodd, who played drums in his band. Though he possessed gifts on a par with his most accomplished peers, Mr. Bland never achieved the popular acclaim enjoyed by contemporaries like Ray Charles and B. B. King. But he was nevertheless a mainstay on the rhythm-and-blues charts and club circuit for decades
