Illuminati (2nd Degree)
The Blasters was one of the best Rock n Roll bands of the '80s.

One of my favorite recordings of all time is a rarity by Phil
Alvin called Unsung Stories. On this 'concept record' Phil
Alvin does traditional and historic popular music such as
"Minnie The Moocher" , "The Old Man Of The Mountain", "Death In The Morning" and others with a select group of accompanists. The
accompanists include Sun Ra and the Arkestra and The Dirty Dozen Brass Band plus solo performances by Phil.


Trivia: Dave Alvin honored his brother Phil by putting him on the
cover of one of his own albums.


Long ago the vinyl recording was sent to the radio studio where
I did a community radio program. Any word on a cd copy, please
email me.
