Mississippi grown Patrick Hazell is blues-soaked; fully, from head down to his feet. With more than three dozen albums behind and hundreds of gigs he remains the same, he remains true BLUES artist.
Although Mr. Hazell is equally good on both harp and keyboards, what drives on this album is his piano, incredible, emotional, rooted in mid 20th century juke-joints so deeply one might think recording is made in 1960s Chicago blues club. Patrick Hazell plays as if his fingers are directly connected to his heart. If his broken-beat will not make you wow, and if up-tempo playing for boogie woogie will not make you tap your foot, sorry, you're deaf because Mr. Hazell's piano playing is mesmerizing.And, nothing is saved, all the Blues is played here and now, no economies made.If you are thirsty for low-down piano and harmonica Blues, you should listen to this album.

"The latest from guitarist Paul Mayasich and his band of buddies is an eclectic mix of American music.You get blues of all kinds, country, folk, and lots more – all of it laced with Mayasich’s biting electric guitar and acoustic slide.If big crunchy guitar is your idea of a good time, “High Time” is a fine place to start. It’s a slow, bluesy boogie that features his lowdown slide soloing. “Insane” is a fun up-tempo tune mixing organ and guitar to craft a memorable lick that sticks like a good meal. The last two minutes of the song is basically a free-for-all amongst the entire band. The instrumental “Taxing Johanna” sounds like a Tom Waits backing track.“Skipping To Moon” features several sections. The open has a droning sound featuring Mayasich’s slide. He segues into a folk feel. Finally, it turns into a swinging rocker that sounds like a long-lost Allman Brothers track, before moving back into the folk song.The record is a showcase for a guitarist, singer, and songwriter at the peak of his powers" ~ Vintage Guitar magazine.

Smoldering, angry and saucy; Daddy's Little Girl is a full grown woman now (and more than a bit pissed). Miss Molly Simms can sweep the floor with tender ruminations on loves lost and quiet yearning (along the lines of Lucinda Williams),but not before setting the situation straight with a few doses of hard-earned sass and voodoo bile.

Sarah Jane Nelson’s relationship with the blues is rooted in her upbringing in Monroe, Louisiana. “In junior high school I came across a boxed set of Robert Johnson music at the local record store. Eric Clapton, one of my favorites, endorsed the set saying Johnson was ‘the most important blues musician who has ever lived.’ Those recordings were like nothing I had ever heard, and I was drawn to the simple production that let the remarkably honest storytelling shine through. Suddenly I realized where all the popular rock and country music I loved had originated.” Years later, working in New York City as a professional actress, Nelson was cast in “It Ain’t Nothin’ But the Blues,” at the Prince Music Theater in Philadelphia. With a sold out extended run, that show, which chronicled the history of blues music, was Nelson’s first taste of singing the blues professionally. A year later, Nelson performed in an Off-Broadway production of “El Paso Blue,” a play with a blues score written by Michael “Hawkeye” Herman. When Sarah Jane and Hawkeye came together to rehearse the music, it was “love at first jam,” and they have been playing together ever since. “I adore Hawkeye as a person, an artist, and a collaborator. He sees something special in me, and that has been a great source of inspiration on my journey into blues. This music is where I’m from and where I live. I love the sound, the songs, the storytelling, and the unwavering strength that is at the core of all blues music.” “Wild Women Don’t Get the Blues” was inspired by Sunday afternoon blues jams at the home of Hawkeye Herman (www.hawkeyeherman.com). All tracks were recorded LIVE at Freeman Sound in Ashland, Oregon with no-frills production to capture the ambiance of a backporch jam and let the storytelling shine through. It also features harmonica with Big Irv Lubliner and Tom Freeman on percussion.

This groundbreaking project celebrates the centennial birthday of B.B. King, honoring his monumental legacy with a one-of-a-kind Collaboration Album. The album will feature a double album worth of curated tracks of B.B. King's most iconic songs, recorded/tracked by Blues Rock Icon Joe Bonamassa and his all-star band, with production led by 2-time Grammy-nominated producers Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith. The reimagined tracks will include a stellar lineup of guest musicians from both contemporary and legacy backgrounds that will unite multiple generations and genres to pay tribute to the King of Blues with 32 tracks and including 40 special guests! Working directly with B.B. King’s estate, this project is deeply personal to Joe, reflecting his lifelong admiration for B.B. and the profound impact B.B. had on his career and life. Joe’s connection with B.B. began in 1989 when, as a 12-year-old prodigy, he had the life-changing opportunity to open for Mr. King. Over the years, their friendship grew as they toured together on dozens of occasions, cementing a bond that Joe cherishes to this day.

Respect! "Blues 'N Roll" is already The Double Vision's third self-released album. "Three Days In Confusion" followed in 2009, and "Roots" was released in 2011. This trio from Thuringia can play the songs of Irish blues-rock legend Rory Gallagher. Stephan Graf has a perfectly suited voice, and while blues-rock remains the genre heading on this album, which consists entirely of original compositions, The Double Vision demonstrates with its ten tracks that they can also stand very well on their own two feet.
The trio's music comes from the heart, from where the blues begins to pump before continuing its journey through the body. For the listener and this album, it's exactly the opposite... first the music, then the skin, and finally the pumping station of the red bodily fluid.
The Double Vision serves up a blues-rock sound that is incredibly catchy. The bottleneck guitar offers few breaks, making Stephan Graf's already impressive fretboard skills a true delight. The same can be said for all ten songs. Whether you explore the acoustic side of the genre or rock out on the dusty road, the music is just as captivating.
The band can be proud of their stage experience as headliners and as support for artists like Dana Fuchs, Randy Hansen, Eamonn McCormack, Ryan McGarvey, Hadden Sayers, Todd Wolfe, and Ten Years After.
In the opening tracks, the band knows only one direction... straight ahead on the highway that seems endless, even on the horizon. With well-placed breaks and quieter passages, "Cold Wind Blow" allows for more extended solos. The trio's sound is full and rich, and Stephan Graf consistently finds the perfect guitar tone to evoke enthusiasm. This track also offers a glimpse of their ballad-like sound.

In the opening tracks, the band knows only one direction... straight ahead on the highway that seems to stretch on forever. "My Window" is top-notch slow blues. Melodic drumming by Silvio Remus and Torsten Sieboldt's subtly pumping bass set similar accents to Stephan Graf's guitar. The music slows down even further, as if you're cruising in a traffic-calmed zone. Excellent! With this level of quality, an encore is definitely in order. "Some People Told You Lies" is another ballad. Guest musician Andreas 'Hermann' Saul adds another touch of melancholy with his harmonica. Stephan Graf delivers another wonderfully dynamic solo. Fantastic!
The harmonica also features in "Black River Mud." But this time, you could say it's a Mississippi Delta track. The metal tube is back, and this time Stephan Graf slides it across the strings of a dobro. Andreas 'Hermann' Saul is now part of the wonderful groove, and his solo adds a touch of country to the vibrant mix. A highlight! The closing number, "Blues 'N Roll," features another guest. Friedel Graf lends his saxophone to the powerfully rocking, superbly arranged exclamation mark. He had already given a taste of his talent earlier in the set. Naturally, the woodwind instrument fits perfectly into the funky blues rock sound, and the guitarist embellishes his instrument's sound not only with the wah-wah pedal.
Long live rock 'n' roll! For The Double Vision, it goes by the name "Gasoline and Water." As we all know, gasoline and water don't mix. In the hands of this band, however, it works perfectly and effortlessly with crisp riffs. This is how blues fans are thrilled!
With their original compositions, the trio from Thuringia convincingly demonstrates how well one can express oneself through the language of the blues. "Blues 'N Roll" isn't just The Double Vision's motto, it's also the driving force behind their music, a 12-stroke engine powered by at least six cylinders. Bravo!

 “Rosetta” marks its first studio effort. Recorded in a series of one-takes on vintage instruments and microphones, and using tiny 5-watt amps, “Rosetta” has a raw sound that frontman Eli Clark favors. The result might strike some as light and hollow, and the band has had to work to find a balance that gives the album the AM radio feel that Clark likes while not sapping the album of its bottom end. But all the songs on “Rosetta” are well written, and Clark’s vocals and harmonica work make the album shine. “King of the Devil’s Highway” is the best song on the album, but how much enjoyment you get out of any of the tracks will depend on how much you dig the vintage aesthetic that overrides the album.

Ernie Peniston’s unique style is derived from classic blues and the distinctive Minneapolis music scene of the 70's and 80's that produced such musicians as Prince, Morris Day and Jessie Johnson. Morris Day was originally Ernie's drummer in their band “Enterprise” in the 80’s. “The Time,” featuring Day as the frontman, later went on to perform in Prince’s movies, Purple Rain and Graffiti Bridge.
Peniston formed The Ernie Peniston Band in the Quad-Cities in the late 80’s, and the current players are a reiteration of an early 90's lineup:
Ernie Peniston has shared the stage with Prince, Morris Day, The Temptations, Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, James Brown, Albert Collins, and many others. He also spent four years as the frontman with Blind Pig recording artists, Chicago Rhythm & Blues Kings, traveling the US and Europe. Peniston was inducted into the Iowa Blues Hall of Fame in 2003.

When talking about blues "made in Germany", you can actually only mean the Bluesanovas. In recent years, the band has achieved the status of an absolute live insider tip and has been able to convince fans and critics alike of their retro style. Their good reputation preceded the three-time "German Blues Award" winners, and so it is hardly surprising that none other than Eric Clapton invited the five musicians from Münster as a support act for his 2022 tour of Germany. With the three albums they have released so far and one EP - which they recorded and produced in the legendary Sun Studio in Memphis - the five-piece can draw on all the resources on the big stages of the republic and prove what blues "made in Germany" is capable of: Music that immediately goes over the ear into the leg.

Guitarist Bob Pace has entertained Midwest audiences for more than 40 years. He proudly led the Tuesday night house band at the legendary Blues On Grand for almost 20 years.
“Bob Pace is my favorite guitarist in the world, at least tonight while I’m sitting here at the bar in Blues On Grand, one of my favorite Blues clubs, watching Bob tear it up…” wrote Chip Eagle of Blues Revue.
Bob has opened for Blues icons Jimmie Vaughan, Johnny Winter, John Mayall, Tab Benoit, Tower of Power, Delbert McClinton and countless others.
Additionally, he has jammed with Junior Wells, Eric Sardinas, Coco Montoya, Kenny Neal, Willie “Big Eyes” Smith, and Sonny Rhodes, to name but a few.
He picked up his first guitar at 10 and was serious by 14. Bob recalls the “defining experience” of watching The Beatles and the screaming girls on The Ed Sullivan Show.  That (the girls) sealed the deal: “I had to play guitar.”
His mother influenced him with the Gospel and Blues of Mahalia Jackson and Billie Holiday, while his Dad opened the gate to the Country music landscape of Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard. It came together as he immersed himself in his early guitar heroes – all the Kings, Roy Buchanan, Mike Bloomfield, Duane Allman, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton.
Bob has recorded Bob Pace Live at Blues on Grand; the solo CD Bare Bones; two tracks for two Blues Compilations on Bob Dorr’s Hot Fudge label; contributed two tunes to the Blues for Baghdad CD; played harmonica on the J.C. Anderson Band CD, and has done commercial and studio work.
Over the years Bob has played with many bands but especially enjoyed The Pace Band with sons Tony on drums and Nick on bass.
He has played at the CIBS Winter Blues Festival; Blues Under the Trees; Bowlful of Blues; Living History Blues Festival; the Benefit for Katrina victims; Blues for the Homeless, and benefits for Birdland Flood Damage, and Blues for Baghdad.
Bob has been featured on the cover of The Iowan and Datebook, was inducted into the Iowa Rock ‘n Roll Association’s Hall of Fame in 2009 and won the Solo/Duo Iowa Blues Challenge with IBHOF inductee Steve E. George in 2009.
“I am now at a place in my life where I can perform and promote The Blues full-time,” says Bob. “In 40 years, not a day has passed that I haven’t wanted to play The Blues. It’s in my DNA.”

Based again in 2012, the Austrian band BASEMENT SAINTS is obviously influenced via the 70s vintage rock/southern rock days. Their song is unique, with a singer that come what may rings a bell in my memory of IAN ASTBURY (THE CULT), a Hammond Organ that brings again the URIAH HEEP/DEEP PURPLE reminiscences and so is their Vintage Rock that also is a transparent HEEP/PURPLE affair.
Their line up is composed of Simon Molly (Drums), Anton Delen (Guitar, Bass & Vocals) and Robby Keys (Hammond Organ, Keys & Vocals), and Down South is their 4th album thus far, and particularly uptempo rockers like Spark In The Woods, Freeway Traces, the very good Sunflower Seeds, Boots and Buccaneer are a pleasure to hear if you happen to’re partial to natural vintage 70s onerous rock and roll. There are extra immediately ahead than for instance DE WOLFF, however I will believe the two of them enjoying in combination someplace in Europe. But even so the entire rockers which are incorporated right here, the band additionally has calmer subject material, such because the semi-ballad Sail Thru The Night time that rings a bell in my memory of SLADE a bit of, and the melodic rocker Night time Owl (now not the LITTLE RIVER BAND vintage!).
There’s in truth no unmarried vulnerable second to be discovered on their new album, and lovers of aforementioned bands like URIAH HEEP, DEEP PURPLE, THIN LIZZY, 70s MANFRED MANN’S EARTH BAND, QUEEN, and many others.
