One of the lesser known players from Chicago. Rob's a great harmonica player in the Little Walter/Big Walter tradition. I like his fat tone and his excellent phrasing. As a vocalist he is doing okay, but he's not my favorite singer. The...
Five early demo recordings (dubbed from the only existing acetate), plus a live concert recorded ten years later. Davy Graham must be regarded one of the most influential and style-building guitar players in the UK during the late 1950s...
Great to learn, Europe's on a good way. Take this Dutch band for example. Their vocalist ranks amongst the very best, worldwide. Top notch vocal style, great timbre, soulful and unique. The band's grooving with verve, combining blues and...

Young Dutch guitarist, singer and composer.He likes the blues, and he loves Prince, soul and hip hop. He also admires The Police or John Mayer. Good production, original material.

Great new, 'young' band from Canada. This trio features the talents of Tony D., one of the most-respected bluesmen in his country. The drummer has been drumming forever, and Steve Mariner first came to my attention as the 16-year-old in...
Their second album, the beginning of their largely successful progressive rock period. TONY McPHEE - gtr/voc, PETE CRUICKSHANK - bass, KEN PUSTELNIK -drums.
One of the most successful Dutch blues bands of all times with a great set of new recordings. Re-makes of classic blues songs, a treat I usually can not stand. But these guys (and especially vocalist Tineke) got the class and the nerv to...
