Nick Moss & The Flip Tops are becoming a fairly prolific recording band, especially in these days of record company mergers, musical tastes-of-week, and public ambivalence to the blues. Of course, owning and operating your own record company is one way to play by your own rules, and Nick Moss has been doing that since the early 2000s. The double CD Play It ‘Til Tomorrow is the band’s 6th release on Moss’ Blue Bella label (and they’ve since released another CD in 2009 – Live At Chan’s: Combo Platter No. 2.)
Disc One, referred to as Program One in all CD artwork, is the sort of electric blues that fans of the Flip Tops have come to expect – heavy duty Chicago electric blues featuring deep grooves and plenty of shuffles. Program Two (Disc Two) is another kind of animal. Nick chose to focus primarily on acoustic-based music there, split between full band tracks and duets. Both discs are great listens, and the surprising inclusion of an acoustic-based disc makes this release even more special.
As always, the boys in the band don’t stay put on just one instrument. Nick, Gerry Hundt and Piano Willie Oshawny all play multiple instruments – drummer Bob Carter does limit himself to only drums and percussion! Also, there is a girl in the band on occasion, as Nick’s wife Kate sits in on several tracks on either bass or rhythm guitar. There are also two special guests on hand: Eddie Taylor, Jr. and Barrelhouse Chuck. Taylor adds his guitar to several songs on Disc One, and Barrelhouse Chuck sits in on piano for a song on Disc Two.
