The unique saxophonist Albie Donnelly talks about Supercharge, Charles Brown, B.B.King, Queen & Lady Gaga.
Albie Donnelly is a singer/saxophonist and bandleader began his career in London as a session musician playing on recordings by Bob Geldof and the Boomtown Rats, Graham Parker and many others. In 1973 he formed the now legendary band SUPERCHARGE. The band’s blend of R. ‘n’ B. and Funk plus their wild on- (and off!) stage-show made them a sensation on the British 70’s live- club scene.
In the 80’s the band signed with Virgin Records and toured extensively in GB and all over Europe with such names as Ray Charles, Fats Domino, B.B.King, Chuck Berry and Queen – culminating in the Hyde Park concert in front of more than 100,000 people. From then on Albie has led successful tours all over Europe (Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, France, Poland, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland) and recently back home again in GB, confirming the bandleaders consistent popularity. His soulful voice and unique horn-sound attest to his R‘n’B roots and his being steeped in the music of the all-time greats.
Quote from B.B.King: “SUPERCHARGE is Europe’s finest Rhythm ‘n’ Blues Band.”
Since 1992 Albie is doing some solo records as well and published his first solo album „The Spirit In Me“ which contains a selection of some personal favourite songs. This record is to be regarded kind of biographic. Beside his own songs one can find tunes of Albie’s favourite musicians like Charles Brown, Duke Ellington and more. But that’s not all! For more than 10 years a saxophone workshop book “Sax Tricks & Rock ’n’ Roll” written by Albie Donnelly is available. Aiming at the R&B sax-player it not only shows useful tricks and playing techniques but tells a lot of entertaining anecdotes of Albie Donnelly’s musical life. In 1993 Albie recorded with the Supercharge horn-section a sampling CD/CD Rom for professional studio work. Worldwide distributed as “Albie Donnelly’s Killerhorns I&II” this sampler got the best reviews among experts.Of course Albie Donnelly is available as special guest to support other bands with his fantastic saxophone sound, too.
