LITTLE MACK SIMMONS
SOMEWHERE ON DOWN THE LINE (EFi 3356)
"Stunning and tight. . . Enjoy Mack Simmons as
he is today, whooping and blowing his way into blues history." —Juke Blues
magazine
"Tasteful and successful. . . Simmons is a fine
performer who deserves the attention he has recently attracted." —Living
Blues magazine
FATHEAD
BLUES WEATHER (EFi 3357)
This disc won the 1999 Juno Award (Canada's version
of the Grammy) as Best Blues Album and was heralded by Living Blues for
"diversity in styles, intelligent song writing and crisp production…A winner."
Fathead's music is steeped heavily in the blues along with elements of R&B,
funk, soul, gospel, rock 'n' roll and cajun spice. Formed in 1994 by Carey
Bell protégé and harp player / tenor saxophonist Al Lerman.
“There is something going on with this band
. . . All the right ingredients come together: talent, personality, humor, united
vision and a little bit of hoodoo/voodoo.” —Real Blues magazine
CURLEY
BRIDGES
KEYS TO THE BLUES (EFi 3358)
"Bridges can still shout it down like a major leaguer.
His keyboard work is fluent and assured, his comping is incredibly deep, and
his vocal power is on par with any R&B vocalist you’d care to name, past
or present."—Blues Revue magazine
"Curley is a true blues star, a modern-day troubadour
who evokes comparisons with Roosevelt Sykes/Floyd Dixon as a rompin’, stompin’
blues shoutin’ pianist with loads of goodtime spirit and a great big voice that’s
one of a kind." —Real Blues magazine
LITTLE MACK SIMMONS
THE P.M./SIMMONS COLLECTION (EFi 3360)
A slice of Chicago recording history—1971 to 1982—with
Little Mack Simmons, Fenton Robinson and Arelean Brown
"A valuable glimpse into a time when the blues
was struggling commercially but managing to stay alive at the grassroots level."
—Living Blues magazine"Little Mack’s ventures as a producer of his own
and others’ music is masterfully presented here. . . . There should be something
[on this CD] to suit anyone who ever professed to having a penchant for the
blues. . . . Brilliant!"—Juke Blues magazine
JOHNNY
LAWS
BLUES BURNIN’ IN MY SOUL (EFi 3361)
"Blues Burnin’ In My Soul is an exceptional
display of his enormous gifts, containing more than sixty minutes of the gentlest,
sexiest blues you’ll ever hear. . . . One of the year’s very best!" —Blues
Beat magazine
"It’s a real shame that Johnny Laws has been unjustly
ignored in the past. . . . This is an enjoyable CD. . . . Full marks to those
folks at Electro-Fi."
—Blues & Rhythm magazine
MORGAN DAVIS
BLUES MEDICINE (EFi 3362)
"Morgan Davis, he’s a great musician" —Snooky Pryor
"He flys mostly solo on this excellent release, demonstrating his exceptional
guitar skills on a variety of styles and tempos. The songs, mostly penned by
Morgan, are first rate."—Blues Beat magazine
MEL BROWN
NECK BONES AND CAVIAR (EFi 3363)
"He’s probably one of the greatest guitar players
in any style: jazz, blues, you name it. I remember playing at Antone’s and all
these hot shot Austin guys had played before him. Mel just came up and slaughtered
all of us. Just murdered everybody." —Joe Louis Walker
Brown’s leads are... infused with chordal and harmonic
inventiveness... "He creates a solo as stark and uncluttered as a dirt road
in wintertime."
—Living Blues magazine
"Nobody does it like Mel Brown." —Snooky Pryor
FRUTELAND
JACKSON
I CLAIM NOTHING BUT THE BLUES (EFi 3364)
"My respect for Fruteland Jackson is very high.
He and my boy Alvin [Youngblood Hart] is the future sound of true acoustic blues.
And you can quote me anytime." —Henry "Mule" Townsend
"Fruteland is an intelligent young man, a young
bluesman, good musician and good guitar player. We toured together on the road."
—David "Honeyboy" Edwards
"Fruteland has his own style. . . He will be one
of the great ones of our times." —Jimmie Lee Robinson
FATHEAD
WHERE"S YOUR HEAD AT (Efi 3365)
"…This Toronto based, 5 piece powerhouse
has created a custom blend of soulful music that marries equal parts blues and
R & B, together with elements of gospel, Cajun spice, spirited funk and
more than enough rock n roll energy to power home their point….They don't play
to the groove. They are the groove." -Eric Thom, Blues Revue
Curley
Bridges - Mr. Rock 'N' Soul EFI 3369
Curley showcases his immense talent on both his original title track and on a great assortment of jumpin' material done up Curley Bridges style!
"Curley Bridges is a true blues star. A rompin' stompin' blues shoutin' pianist with loads of good time spirit and a great big voice that's one of a kind". - Real Blues Magazine.
