About Us:
Singer/songwriter now mainly Acoustic/Folk Electric blues past. Parked my guitar in 1983 after two fun years and one album with Chicken Shack. Before that played in several line-ups with Keef Hartley, and other lesser known British bands - including three versions, three albums and umpteen singles with Blue Horizon band - Jellybread (material re-released by Sony at end of 2008). Highlights included backing BB King on three tracks of his Live in London album, London Gumbo with Lightning Slim, playing with Taj Mahal in Finland, a gig in a small club in Battersea with Eddie Guitar Burns, the Paradiso with Slade, and turning up to play at early Glastonbury in 82/83 and thinking I had time shifted back to 1967!. Musicians I have been fortunate to play with - Pete Wingfield, Rick Hayward, Duster, Keef and Stan Webb, Ric Lee and Leo Lyons, Steve Yorke, Miller Anderson, Andy Pyle, John Altman,Tony Ashton, Bernie Marsden, Laurence Garman, Pete Gage, Gary Barnacle. It was incestuous! Current faves - but I haven't played with them (yet!) Gurf Morlix, Brad Paisley, Band of Heathens, Mary Gauthier, Eliza Gilkyson. Yeah, I know its across the Atlantic, but so were the Blues. Blame it on an SJ200 I acquired in October 2008. Sort of Glory Train experience... Just me on these songs - electric, steel, acoustic and bass guitars, harmonica,programmed drums occasional keyboards. Charlie Butler lends a vocal hand on Madly, otherwise thats me too-sorry
