Here's a track from an album that does exactly what it says on the label: "Blues with Horns" by Chris Daniels and The Kings, released in 2017. Chris Daniels is a bit of an old timer, having just turned 68 two days ago (clearly 1952 was a good year, he says modestly).
Chris shares vocals with Freddi Gowdy on this track while along with those horns some Louisiana slide guitar is added by Sonny Landreth, who caught my notice when he played with Mark Knopfler during his 'Swinging Golden Hearts' live shows* in 1996. 
Back to now, this has an unusual and interesting video, like a walk through town - so I hope you enjoy - 'Sweet Memphis' 

* Check out Sonny Landreth on this great intro to 'Cannibals' from this 'live' show > https://youtube.com/watch?v=UD4LWIy675Y
