"You are transported back to the late 60's early 70's with songs that have more than a passing resemblance to Cream, The Doors and The Spencer Davis Group. Those influences added to the Joe Cocker vocals and you have a band that are more than just watchable as borne out by the very appreciative crowd who roared out for more even after an hour set. Normally an hour set by a support band would be drowned out by incessant chatter - not with these guys." Praise indeed - part of Wrinkly's Pearl Handled Revolver review when we saw them (pictured) support Slim Chance at The Borderline sixteen months ago. Anyway we're pleased to report that their third album is taking shape 'If The Devil Cast His Net' soon to be released worldwide in CD, MP3 and vinyl formats! Anyway click here to see a vid of the seminal track from the album - 'Absinthe In Adelaide'.

If you're going to Joe Bonamassa's Hammersmith gig next Thursday 19th March then give us a shout. Meanwhile the JB juggernaut moves on with 'Muddy Wolf At Red Rocks' on DVD, Blu-ray and CD - set to be released on March 23rd. A tribute to Blues legends Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf - it was filmed at Red Rocks Amphitheatre over American Labor Day weekend in 2014. Carved into the bedrock of Colorado’s majestic Rocky Mountains, the famed amphitheatre sets the stage for Bonamassa’s fiery delivery of over two and a half hours of bluesy guitar-wailing and horn-filled tunes honouring the two Blues greats. Playing to a sold-out crowd of 9,000 fans, this marks the biggest show of Bonamassa’s career, a major milestone for the Bluesman. The Blu-ray and DVD contains over one and half hours of bonus features including exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, photo gallery, historic footage of Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf and a featurette of Bonamassa and producer Kevin Shirley’s trip to The Crossroads. To celebrate the release, Joe is offering fans a free MP3 download of the live track 'Tiger In Your Tank' here for free!
