Floyd Miles (April 13, 1943 – January 25, 2018) was an American electric blues and soul blues guitarist, singer and songwriter. He released four solo albums from 1992 onwards.Miles was born and raised in Daytona Beach, Florida, growing up as the youngest of eleven children. He left home at the age of 15.His musical career really started when playing with The Universals, a soul band which were locally popular in the early 1960s. At the time Miles was a singing drummer for the band, and he befriended both Gregg and Duane Allman, who lived nearby and jammed with the band.
After playing drums and singing with several other local groups, Miles founded his own band, which backed musicians such as Arthur Conley, Erma Franklin, Curtis Mayfield, Eddie Floyd and Percy Sledge. Through his friendship of the Allmans, Miles moved on to supply guitar backing for Clarence Carter. He later performed with the London Symphony Orchestra.His debut solo album was Crazy Man (1992), which included musical assistance from Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts.[5] Goin' Back to Daytona was released in 1994. Miles gained greater national prominence when he played on tour with the ensemble Gregg Allman & Friends.His third album, Mountain to Climb (1999), was released by Beloved Records. His last recording, Another Man Will, produced by Roy Roberts, was released in 2002 Miles performed at the Boundary Waters Blues Festival and, in 1996 and 2009, at the Sarasota Blues Fest.
Those familiar with Floyd Miles know that Floyd generally assembles a group of solid musicians for each session. On "Goin Back To Daytona", for example, Floyd used Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts and Ace Moreland among others. Similarly, on this release, "Another Man Will", Floyd once again enlists the services of Gregg Allman for five of the ten songs as well as longtime friends Chick Willis and Roy Roberts to help out on guitar. Add a trumpet, trombone and sax and you have all the ingredients for a pure rhythm and blues CD. There are some fine moments on the disc, such as "Three Old Blue's Men" which features the vocals of Chick Willis, Roy Roberts and Miles and "I Don't Want No More" featuring the backup vocals of Duane Allman.
There is a lot of music out there these days. Finding Floyd Miles was finding the proverbial needle. Only in this instance, I found gold. Mr. Miles blends blues and soul with a natural flowing lyric complementing a grove that inspires the listener to move. His best so far. Bluesman extraordinare....
