Popa Chubby And The Beast Band Live At G. Blueys Juke Joint N.Y.C. (2-CD)

(Sono Recording Group) 20 tracks
The new album was recorded at G Bluey's Juke Joint in Long Island City, New York on 24 and 25 October 2022. Popa Chubby (guitar and vocals) is backed by his all-star Beast Band, which consists of Mike Merritt - bass (Conan O'Brien, Billy Gibbons); Mike Dimeo - keyboards (Johnny Winter, Tommy James) and Stefano Giudici - drums. 'This record is a reunion in many ways,' says Popa Chubby. 'Reuniting with my long-time partner and bassist extraordinaire Mike Merritt and recording in the studio of my old Manny's Car Wash engineer Glen Forrest. The icing on the cake was Mike Dimeo on keyboards. Add to that the Centurion Stefano Giudici on drums and you have Heavy Blues Rock! It's a live best-of for the ages!'
