The Music

Well, we already said it was like 50s USA - Chess, Modern and so on - and 60s Britain, like Blue Horizon.

Think John Mayall, Peter Green and Graham Bond meet Muddy Waters, the Sonny Boys, Jimmy Reed, Howling Wolf and Junior Wells in an unpredictable mix, in which all kinds of other stuff might filter through. Note, however, that this is an SRV and Gary Moore-free zone. Lovely fellers, no doubt, but not the Unruly kind of thing.

Songs might include Big Boss Man, All Your Love, Yonder's Wall, Key To The Highway (Neil, it's I-V-IV), Back Door Man, Mr Charlie's Blues (one of The Grateful Dead's blues adventures), Hoochie Coochie Man, Early In The Morning (the song, not the Ginger Baker one) and Double Trouble.

We also throw in some Son Maxwell originals, like the latin-style First Born Child and swinging Love Song Blues. You can click the links to hear samples; there's also this bit of slow blues. They'll open in new windows – none is more than 1MB.

Also, here's us doing All Your Love at The Pink & Lily...

With Darren's funk and jazz style, we never get too loud, but we do get people dancing, drinking and cheering. It's like Blues used to be, before Jimi Hendrix cranked it into the Strato-sphere, bless his heart.

Does that tell you enough? Of course not. Better come and see us then...
