BLUES BAND Be My Guest (Reissue 2019)

Popis:

The Blues Band was formed by Manfred Mann lead singer/harp player Paul Jones and fellow bandmate, guitarist Tom McGuinness. The original line-up included bassist Gary Fletcher, slide-guitarist Dave Kelly (who’d previously played with the John Dummer Band, Howlin’ Wolf and John Lee Hooker), and drummer Hughie Flint, of John Mayall’s Blues Breakers and McGuinness Flint, the outfit he formed with Tom McGuinness. When Flint left in 1982, he was replaced by Family’s Rob Townsend. Acknowledged throughout Europe and beyond as one of the finest exponents of authentic rhythm & blues, the Blues Band continue to cut the mustard, writing and playing with passion and conviction to appreciative cross-generational audiences wherever they go.

As the title 'Be My Guest' suggests, a plethora of popular music “greats” from the past sixty-plus years feature on this feel-good 20-tracker encompassing songs both old and new from the band’s extensive repertoire. Among those contributing are Nat Adderley, Plas Johnson, Jo Ann Kelly, Jools Holland, Mike Sanchez, Zydeco legend Rockin’ Dopsie and more. A rollicking good time from start to finish.
