And what a jam session there was. From the first evening when Matt Thorpe jumped up on stage at the Bourbon Street Blues & Boogie Bar at Printers Ally with Stacey Mitchardt and the Blues U Can Use Band and blew away the whole house with his British Brand of soulful blues guitar work.Then, Ironman Mike Curtis, the one man band, keeping everyone in stitches and quite literally making the sessions work with the material he brought along as well as playing Blues Harp beautifully,bass and bass pedals,guitar and vocals on three of the songs. The arrival of one of Chicago's best bluesmen, Kevin "Stik" Paul, flying in late Saturday afternoon after sharing the bill the evening before with the Fabulous Thunderbirds and laying down some mean guitar immediately.Bill Houses hypnotic "Storms A Comin" unraveled before our very eyes as an idea that just came to him after hearing the daily weather report. Scott Durflingers true found moment of blues when he takes a solo plugged into his WAH WAH and messmerizes everyone and his introduction of "Lord I Love My Smoke", a charmin' lil country blues with everything but the corn squeezin's. Doc Quinn's introduction of his tune "Freddies Blues" which will become a classic. Bob Huston's "Blues Walked Through" with it's southern rockin' feel. And so much more...... You can hear the whole session here at Soundclick.Band/artist history
Blues and Classic Rock artist who has played in Japan,Mexico The Philippines and all over the US and Canada...are very serious about their music that they make and offer to YOU.. the listener.
Today the band is free to gig, record and collaborate either singular or as a group with artists around the globe because of the web.Have you performed in front of an audience?We play "Live" when we can around the tri-state area. We love to play it right off the cuff. That's how it should be. Recording is fun and keeps a record for a long time but "live" performance has magic or "MOJO". The most memorable moments are "the Nashville Sessions"...meeting and jamming with "HoundDog Taylor" and spending an evening talking with Robert Lockwood. Making friends with Willie Pooch and Dave Workman and any jam session ever attended.
