Just My Luck, the album from the Terry Quiett Band, is an album that proves that music is just as much about feeling and expression as it is technique and ability. While Quiett is obviously a very good musician from a technical standpoint (which is proven by his unbelievable vocals on “Close to You” and gutsy guitar solos on “Satisfied” and “Getting Through to Me”), most of the album is very simple, but it is also extremely genuine and heartfelt. The first thing that stands out about this album is that the band really does sound like a band. They play together and they listen to each other; nobody in the band overplays. There is great interplay between the musicians that creates a very human, identifiable quality that draws the listener into the music and doesn’t let him go until the last note of the closing ballad (“Close to You”) has died. Basically, the album sounds like a set that you might hear at a smoky blues club, a sound that is hard to capture on a recording. Yet everything that you would hear or feel at this club – the dirt, the grime, the sound of fingers scratching the strings of a guitar, the singer humming his guitar lines as he plays them – is captured perfectly on the recording. This album isn’t perfect, but then again, it isn’t supposed to be. What it is though is human, genuine and heartfelt. That being said, it contains everything you could want in a set: beautiful ballads, Texas style shuffles, swing blues tunes, a little bit of jazz, a little bit of gospel, and even a tune where Quiett is accompanied only by acoustic guitar (“Judgement Day”). Quiett is a masterful singer and an excellent guitar player, but most of all he is a musician. He understands the power of emotion, the power of a band that knows each other and listens to each other. He understands the delicate balance between technique and emotion, and the result is, quite simply, a masterpiece.

The music of Black River Bluesman is hardly conventional. His first encounter with the blues was also contradictory. “One of my early favorites was Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Looking for Somebody’. I listened to it on tape over and over again, not understanding if it was music at all,” Jukka recalled in an interview with Roots. “Blues was marginal music in the 60s and 70s - there was something genuinely rebellious about it, and so it was perfect for a teenage boy who was skeptical of everything mainstream,” Juhola adds. Juhola has a lot of favorite artists, but he agrees to mention John Lee Hooker and R.L. Burnside in particular.
“In the early days, blues played a central social role, the whole genre of music was born from it,” Jukka outlined in an interview with the Italian radio station Mojo Station a couple of weeks ago. He believes that blues, like many other genres of music, is largely a white folk scene today.
The Cockroach Combo, which accompanies guitarist-singer Juhola, currently consists of Esa Santonen (drums), Jussi Konttinen (baritone guitar) and Juha Lindgren (harmonica). Jukka describes that the mainstream twelve-bar music is not heard in their work, but rather the music is rough, hypnotic and electric blues.
“We play everything with feeling, hoping that our sincerity will arouse emotions in the recipient. In my opinion, blues is at its best when you don’t actually perform a very long and well-written piece, but a song is born and it only exists at the moment of performance,” Jukka says.
BRB & CC’s sound has changed as the group has learned to better use the possibilities offered by the baritone guitar. Jukka describes: “Sometimes you can play riffs from high up - even in unison with the guitar - and then come back down to bounce with the bass drum.”
Jukka is quite enigmatic about the line-up’s upcoming album. He agrees to reveal that at least some slide playing will be heard. He promises that the new album will feature a completely new kind of blues on at least a few songs. “But of course we’ll stay with the roots of the blues, the muddy swamps. The atmosphere, on the other hand, is even more caveman-like!”
Black River Bluesman’s album “Ants in My Kitchen” (2005) attracted a lot of international attention. Among others, the British magazine Blues Matters! did an extensive article on the subject. BRB was also the band of the month in January by the prestigious Swedish publication Jefferson Blues Magazine.

Blue Baron, born Baron Phelps, was born and raised on the South Side of Chicago in 1958, the heart of the electric blues revolution of the 60's. Having receieved his first electric guitar at the age of 10, Blue began to absorb the different musical sounds and feelings of Rock, Funk, Soul, R&B, Blues and Jazz all of which can be heard in his playing today. He is especially fond of Jimi Hendrix and while we hear that influence in his playing, Blue is definitely his own man with his own style. What we hear in his playing is emotion, feeling, heart, soul and a whole lot of rhythm. There is a goodness and kindness about Blue as an individual and those feelings permeate his playing throughout his music. This record is filled with 11 blues-rocking soulful originals by Blue Baron and if you enjoy Blues Rock oriented music, this is a record that you will be thrilled to have in your collection as well as to listen to time after time. From beginning to end this record will captivate you Rock you, Roll you and Soul you.

Allow me to now tell you about some of my personal favorites.The opening track, "KEEP ON DRINKING", made one hell of a first impression on me and had me looking forward to more. The rhythm section is on fire with MAUREEN absolutely burning up the drums, the harp is sharp and the vocals and guitars are awesome. The groove the band was in on this one was extremely tight and it seemed that everyone was on the top of their game.
With a title like "NOTHING LEFT TO TAKE", ya gotta guess this track is nothin' but the blues, and you'd be very right. It's a good ole torch burner with excellent slow and soulful vocals, soft and sultry piano, and long and searing guitar licks. This one may be the cream of this crop. It's nearly eight minutes and every second is enjoyable.
"SLOW DOWN BABY" does exactly that. It's very soft and sassy with excellent vocal harmonizing. MICHAEL and his wonderful acoustic slide along with beautiful harp playing by LARRY highlight this one.
"HAVING HARD TIMES ON A BLUE PLANET" is another hot one. The tempos gone into high gear and the guys are rockin'. On this one, MAUREEN locks in on the drums with the harmonic background singers as the lead guitars and harmonica cut loose, and it sounds like all hell is breaking out. Ya gotta love this one.
The next track could have very easily been written by my wife. It sounds like something she tells me everyday. It's titled "I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HOME" and the lyrics go like this.........."I'm so glad you're home, I'm so glad you're home, I was blue till I met you, I'm so glad you're home. With your pretty face and your warm embrace, I'm so glad your home". It's as wonderfully sung as it was written. The swing dancers will love this one.
This excellent disc comes to a close with a less than 90 second track very similar to a Cephas & Wiggins work. It's called "DEAD END BLUES". It's a slow acoustic number with great acoustic pickin' by MICHAEL, backed up by some superb harp by LARRY.

Credited as being “one of Cincinnati’s best known and most successful songwriters” , and as “one of Cincinnati’s most treasured singer/songwriters”,  Roger Yeardley has crafted a unique organic fusion of American sounds from the country, blues, rock and jazz genres. This passionate singer/ songwriter is known for his “witty and penetrating” lyrics. Roger’s first two CDs ‘Sheepless in Cincinnati’ and ‘Roger Yeardley’s Communal Effort’ received critical acclaim and worldwide airplay. ‘Sheepless..’ was chosen as an essential Cincinnati recording reflecting the blues-rock scene in Cincinnati . Roger’s songs have been on several volumes of the “Greatest Indie Artists in the World” international compilation CD series and several local compilations have included his music. His song ‘This Space Reserved’ was featured on the Music Choice cable TV channel. His songs have appeared in movies, including “Mr. ID”, starring Ami Dolenz (daughter of Monkee, Micky Dolenz). The song Rise & Fall of the Blues appeared in the major motion picture, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. Roger has several music libraries representing his tunes. His songs have been on the airwaves in Europe, New Zealand, Australia, China, and Taiwan. Roger’s music has shared playlists around the world with Johnny Cash, B.B. King, The Dixie Chicks, Neil Diamond, the Eagles, Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, and Dwight Yoakum just to name a few.

He has performed extensively with his band of veteran Cincinnati musicians, Roger Y & the Quick Replies. romoting his soon-to-be-released (fall 2013) CD, The Same But Different.
His 3rd CD, The Same But Different, was the logical next step in Roger’s atypical, in-reverse musical career. The 1st CD, ‘Sheepless..’, was a faux ‘tribute’ CD, with well-known Cincy groups interpreting Roger’s songs. The 2nd CD, ‘Communal Effort’, had Roger participating more with individual Cincy musicians in performing his compositions and singing a few tunes: this disc contains compositions in the genres ,R&B , funk, country, blues, rock and jazz.
By the 3rd CD, The Same But Different, Roger has assumed the role of lead singer, and also included his versions of off-the-beaten-path ‘cover’ tunes previously done by artists such as Wynn Stewart, Ben Vaughn, and Johnny Cash. Recorded in Cincinnati and Nashville, the CD features appearances by guitarist Bill Kirchen (of Commander Cody fame), and Nashville pickers Chris Casello and James LaRitz.

The tones in that first Harmony-Stella guitar have carried Larry Sandlin from jamming with the records of his youth to sharing the stage with the likes of Preston Shannon and the Gamble Brothers Band on Beale Street. Larry's influences include The Allman Brothers, Steve Miller, and The Band, but it was the song styles of Willie Dixon and Muddy Waters that helped create "Blue Larry Blue." Although born and now back in Nashville, Tennessee, Larry has followed his music from the western skies of Phoenix, Arizona to the southern spokes of Atlanta, GA and Memphis, TN. Whether it's with his '54 Gibson LG-1, the Fender-Clapton Strat or the metal-bodied Dobro Resonator, Larry performs as a solo act as well as fronting his own roadhouse blues band. Larry has played a variety of college gatherings, marquee blues clubs like BB Kings and special concerts like Target House at St. Jude's Hospital and the Zoo Rendezvous for the Memphis Zoo Society. Blue Larry Blue has even been featured in a book, the novel Company Confidential, by Tom McCrory. Blue Larry Blue has recorded two CD's to date. 2000's "Big Blue World" and the brand CD, "Analog Guy". "Big Blue World" includes ten original blues tunes with a stellar band, including the piano and organ sounds of the great Reese Wynans. "Analog Guy" is a return to his rootsy- roadhouse sound. His new power trio performs six new originals and four creative covers, inspired by his musical heroes.
Blue Larry Blue is a native of Nashville, and grew up playing in various bands around Nashville. Having played over the years in every musical configuration from rock to bluegrass, BLB has refined his sound and focus to the blues. "That's what I perform best as an artist. I found it frustrating as a songwriter in Nashville that I was writing songs for the Country market that I could not convincingly perform as my voice just doesn't sound authentic for the Country format. So to fill my need to perform, I decided to return to what I'm able to perform best, and that's the blues."

"Every decade, a few albums come along that defy all time or stylistic precepts.  What causes these old records to be so highly revered ? Is it the sound quality?...probably not... Is it the singing?...maybe...Is it the production?...definitely a factor...but...is it the great songs?...most definitely! As the next few months unfold, B.B. Dogg's "One Blue Shoe" will be released  & is destined to be one of those albums. From "Shaky Puddin" (a timeless tribute to a local rock-n-roll goddess) to the more pensive and brooding cuts "One Blue Shoe" and "What Are You Still Doin' Here", all of this remarkable music seems to resonate with music lovers of all ages. Another cut that stands out is "Cab Driver" featuring the unique "moe-moe-moe" background vocals" ~ 2007.

CD Review: Blue Larry Blue delivers fun, catchy blues in an accessible style similar to Robert Cray, Delbert McClinton, and Bonnie Raitt. Larry Sandlin is also a slick guitar player, leading a tight back-to-basics band.
“Ain’t Got You” and “Better Be Better” are funky and just a shade more rhythm-and-bluesy than a lot of contemporary country hits – the resonator guitar in both is a nifty touch.
The title cut is lyrically goofy but fun, with great swooping bass runs from Ron DeLaVega. DeLaVega and drummer Dave Spak are solid anchors throughout the disc – the pulsing “She Loves My Money” and the Muddy Waters tune “I Can’t Be Satisfied” are two of their showcases.
The other cover versions are top-notch, too. “I’m A Ram” is a cooking Al Green number. Larry leans into the vocal, fires off some stinging leads, and Al Gamble delivers trusty Memphis-style B3 organ. Then comes a uniquely groovy and jazzy take on Paul McCartney’s “Blackbird.”
“Crawlin’ King Snake,” the John Lee Hooker staple, is dripping with mystery. Larry’s version is stylish, and his guitar work is layered for maximum bayou effect. If the vocal was just a tad smokier, this would be darn near perfect.
“Blessed Be the Blues” is a fine gospel-ish closer. On his other originals, Larry’s lyrics are tongue-in-cheek, but “Blessed” is bittersweet and pretty. It’s a classy touch – the lone ballad on a spirited album.

We are happy to have on our hands the first transnational European blues band which comes to prove not only the quality but also the good health of the blues that is currently cooked in Europe.
This group includes a team of excellent musicians like Budda Guedes from Portugal on vocals and guitar, Eric Slim Zahl (European Blues Challenge 2016 winner in Torrita di Siena) from Norway on vocals and guitar, Bart Szopinski from Poland on piano, Hammond and vocals, Danny del Toro from Spain on harmonica and vocals, Vasco Moura from Portugal on bass and vocals and finally from Italy Nik Taccori on drums and vocals. All of them lead their own projects in their countries, but, this time, they have joined forces to show their quality and good work in an excellent varied album where each musician gives the best of himself. Of the ten songs included in this interesting recording, seven are Budda Guedes’ own compositions, two belong to Danny del Toro and one more to Eric Slim Zahl.Besides a diverse album which brings together different styles and colorful blues visions in a series of endless good moments, this recording opens the doors to new collaborations, not only by this amazing group of musicians we hope to have more news soon, but also of by other European the blues artists. An interesting initiative we hope will go on in the next future.

Dustin Douglas & The Electric Gentlemen  Present “Blues I”.  A collection of classic blues covers and a new original track.
Dustin Douglas & the Electric Gentlemen is a power trio based in Wilkes-Barre, PA that delivers an authentic sound reminiscent of some of the better classic blues-laced rock-n-roll of years past. The group is led by guitarist/vocalist/composer Dustin Douglas Drevitch, former leader of the group Lemongelli and recent guitarist for The Badlees. Drevitch has been performing since age 13 and soon became one of the most sought after live and session guitarists in Northeastern Pennsylvania. After releasing three independent albums with Lemongelli, Drevitch was enlisted for live shows after the Badlees reunited in 2010 and was a full member of the band when they released their 2013 double album, Epiphones and Empty Rooms.
The group decided for 2017 to release a pure blues based EP called Blues 1. Starting off with a dramatic version of John Lee Hooker’s “Boom Boom”, the EP next migrates into the fine groove of Muddy Water’s “Champagne and Reefer”. Albert King’s “Born Under a Bad Sign” is at once close but still distinct from the famous version by Cream, while the rendition of Freddie King’s “Big Legged Woman” features a catchy funk groove. The EP concludes with its best track, which also happens to be the only group original, “No More Tears”, featuring a nice slide guitar and droning rhythms. Overall, while not having many surprises, Blues 1 does feature a good selection of songs, strong rhythms, and soulful vocals throughout.

CHRISTOPHER DEAN and his “band” are based out in New Jersey where they enjoy a solid reputation for their old-fashioned take on soul and blues with, it needs to be said, a garnish of rock. The band began recording way back in 2001 and they’ve  just released their  sixth album, ‘Steppin’ Out Tonight’ – a pleasing amalgam of blues, soul and rock.From a soul perspective, the LP’s immediate grabber is a cover of an early Curtis Mayfield song, ‘I’m The One Who Loves You’.  The song’s been recorded countless times – by the Impressions and Jerry Butler, of course, but it’s worth seeking out versions by the Five Stairsteps and even Stevie Wonder! It’s a great, simple, old school soul song and Chris treats it with respect and delivers the familiar Mayfield guitar lines with panache.This new 14 track album delivers plenty more cover versions too – showing Chris’ broad tastes and influences. Indeed the album opens with a cover – a jaunty take on Sam Collins’ ‘My Road is Rough and Rocky’ which is     followed by  a robust rendition of ‘Serves Me Right to Suffer’ based on the way that Jimmy Johnson did the John Lee Hooker  song in 1978. On the Johnson version Carl Snyder played piano and he guests on this new take!
Amongst  the other covers are takes on Robert Cray’s gospel-fuelled ‘Walk Around Time’, T-Bone Walker’s ‘That Old Feeling is Gone’ and a soulful rendition of Melvin Waiter’ ‘Running Stop Light’. There’s more of that  good old Southern soul feeling on a lively take on T.K. Soul’s ‘Party Like Back in the Day’, a proper old-time foot tapper! Of the orignals, ‘You Are The Reason’ and ‘Save Us’ are gentle, blue-eyed soul shuffles. Add those to the cuts we’ve described and you have a varied, unpretentious long player that’s good to go right now via  the Lost World Music label.

Produced in 2005 by Pool Room Music, JS fancies himself as the “World’s Greatest Blues Singin’ Bass Fisherman” a claim it is hard to dispute. This 16 song CD much like JS himself is full of him. There is at least one song on this CD guaranteed to hit a nerve on virtually any “PC” cat on the block. But there is no denying his versatility and basic, well-rooted music and he is supported by a group of terrific musicians. Few drummers lead or sing for the group (Karen Carpenter, Phil Collins, Don Henley being notable acceptations) but JS does a fine job of it so kick back and dig this CD it’s a good listen. Here are some snapshots from the 16 cuts:
1 – Incompatibility – Solid rockin’ blues with a great harmonica
2 - The Pool Hustler – A good sound not his best effort
3 – Mail Order Bride – Versatility here on this danceable tune. Nice sound.
4 – Catchin’ Up On The Blues – Best blues groove on the disc
5 – If The Ticks Don’t Get ‘Em the Chiggers Will – Bit of novelty here, good horn
6 – Hard To Know – Very good sound -- full and tight
7 – She Collect Sea Shells – Sounding more like The Keys than The Delta but OK
8 – Makin’ A Livin’ Fishin’ – JS’s dream life in 4 bar
9 – Crawl Space Boogie – A totally different sound in the “Howlin’” style. Cool Groove
10 – Bye Bye Terrorist – Another message song but a good basic blues
11 – Doin’ It – Could have cut this from the disc. Rushed for a produced song
12 – Man With A Woman – Another message song but solid bass/drum groove line
13 – Movin’ Time – Good mojo on this tune by the band
14 – Cialis Levitta & Viagra – More message on a simple groove. Should have cut it
15 – Mothers-In-Law – Too busy to be a blues shuffle
16 – Thousands Of Dollars – This cut has a soul and a sound
All-in-all this CD is a 2.7 on the STLBluesometer. You get 7-8 good tunes and the rest are JS yellin’ his story. I suspect this was produced quickly. There is a lot of talent on this disc but it only sparks never catches fire.

Rich Hope (born Edmonton, Alberta) is a Canadian guitarist, singer-songwriter, and performer whose style is influenced by blues and rock .
Rich Hope ignites the soul the way only good roots rock ‘n’ roll can, like fine campfire whiskey, and haystack sex.
Stuart Derdeyn of The Vancouver Province writes:
"Shake This Joint Around” is the most direct introduction to an album to come since ZZ Top tore through “Thunderbird” on Fandango. The comparison is a fair one, too.
Toss in a bit of Johnny Winter, Humble Pie and Mick, Keef and the lot and you’ve got this no-frills trio’s touchstones. But there’s so much more. A searing guitarist with a ragged snarl, Hope can croon high-lonesome, too (“Love or Death”, “Boxcar”).
Wherever his beautifully crafted tales take him, the band beats with a pulse as steady as a piledriver, rolling forward like a lone freight across an endless prairie.

"Live Blues" - Jubal Kane (leader Long Distance Call Blues Band) has assembled 13 lucky blues tracks on  "Live Blues" record that is as honest and pure to blues roots as you can get. The harmonica sizzles with passion, slightly distorted and right - the vocalist ain't pretty. .just soulful and sad - the guitar expresses despair to our joyful experience. The band is really the finest blues we've got here on earBuzz - a throwback to the days when Peter Haycock, old Fleetwood Mac, and Muddy Waters were first recording their bare and intimately raw blues. For contemporary blues lovers - there is a taste of Stevie in the up-riffed lead parts. The opening track, "The Other Side of Town", is a boogie showcase of harp. Track 3, "Taildragger", is medium tempoed and laid back. Track 5, "Help Me", is a green onionish groove. Our favorite track is "Willie Brown Blues" - and it's probably because we're in the SF Bay area. . .upbeat mover. The final track, in its rightful place, is the slow slow blues number, "Buckwheat's Blues". the guitar is over the top acrobatic blues love. The record is a must for any classic lover of soulful blues rock. - Earbuzz.com

We have played small events including private parties, and large events including the Lowes Motor Speedway before 100,000 + people. Our new CD of origional songs has been out for about a year and has sold in 12 countries. We are continuing to write new songs for our next CD. We have also played many benefits for the St. Judes Childrens Cancer Hospital. and the Veterans admin. We play music by such greats as Eric Clapton, The Doobie Brothers, Allman Brothers, Los Lonley Boys, Molly Hatchet, Z.Z. Top B.B. King and many many others. We have three sets of sound equipment to service venues from small rooms to outdoor events. We use Mackie boards, Peavey speakers, and QSC amps, The drums use Shure mics, and vocal mics are Shure 58 wireless and AKG. Kenny Moore is from Eden, N.C and has been playing guitar for more years than he wants to remember. His smooth rhythums help cement the sound of the band.
Matt Williams on lead guitar was born in Long Beach N.Y., and grew up in Vermont near the base of Killington. He moved back to New York when he was 17 and at the age of 20 moved to North Carolina. Matt is now 24 and has been playing guitar since the age of 15. He cut his teeth on classic rock bands like Led Zeppelin, Guns & Roses and Alice in Chains. He later found himself drawn to the blues. He studied everyone from T Bone Walker & Robert Johnson to Buddy Guy & SRV. Matt was self taught, and playes by ear. He decided to spend a few years studying classical music in the styles of Bach, Beethoven, Paganini and Andres Segovia to learn theory and structure behind music. For a while Matt wrote & played instrumental pieces and followed the works of great guitarists like Steve Morse, Satriani, and Steve Vai. It seems that his music has come full circle . (Or maybe we should say Floydz Circle). While his technique and aspirations fall in the classical relm of music, his heart identifies with the simpler tones of the blues and the gain driven sounds of rock & roll. He has been a great addition to the sound of the Floydz Circle Band.

At 19 he preformed with country great Ronnie Milsap. thru his career he has performed with such greats as Chuck Berry, The Outlaws, Earl Thomas Conley, Channel 9, Street Feet, and Buzzy Meekins formally of Molly Hatchett. He has most reicently been touring & recording with Russian Pianist Yelena Eckemoff. He has also done studio sessions fo the past 20 years with Saltmine Productions for television, Radio and films. Mike is a welcome addition to the band, and fills out our sound.
Keith McMannes handles the lead vocals. He started his career at the age of 14 in and around Cleveland Ohio. Thru the 60's he played Motown with a group called the Riots throughout Ohio. He sang with Donnie Dunn for four years, and has been singing with the Floydz Circle Band for the last 14 years. Keith started writing songs at about 14 and recorded his first single at 15. He has written the lyrics for the Floydz Circle Bands CD titled Yonder Goes A Madman, and continues to write for the next CD. For several years Keith worked on music videos for The Times, The Drifters, and Little Anthony. He is happy to once again be on the other side of the camera.
