This Week's Reader's Favorite Post
I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Ain't Wasting Time , from Nicky T And The Snake Charmers and it's dripping blues, soul and R&B music. Opening with Magic Sam 's, That's All I Need , Nicky T with soulful vocals and groomed guitar riffs gets into that Impressions groove. With Todd Glass on drums, Alex Lyon on bass, Chris Codish on keys, and Greg Nagy on backing vocals, this is a solid opener. Rock n Roller, Feel Like A Hundred , features a driving guitar lead with vocals by Nicky and super piano work by Andy Szymanski on piano. Pete Berg on drums and Frank Greenhalgh round out the band and this track is really moving. Gritty blues, The Glass really gets down featuring guitarist extraordinaire, Ronnie Earl on lead guitar and excellent vocals by Greg Nagy. This tracks really sails with the addition of Jon Johnson on drums, Mike Marshall on bass, Jason Bone on rhythm guitar, John Gavin on piano and warm organ work by Szymanski. Excell...
CD submissions accepted! Guest writers always welcome!!
I started a quest to find terrific jazz and blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

AUSTRALIA'S FIRST LADY OF
THE BLUES, ANNI PIPER,
LAUNCHES U.S. TOUR IN SUPPORT OF CHART-TOPPING
COLLABORATION W/ NICOLE HART, SPLIT SECOND (BLUES LEAF)
(FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) - Anni Piper, Australia's First Lady of the Blues
currently enjoying success with her chart-topping collaboration with Nicole
Hart, Split Second (Blues Leaf Records), launches her 2013 U.S. Tour on
June 10 with a show at the Rockstar Lounge in Lake City, FL (complete itinerary
below; also at www.annipiper.com).
Piper first started
playing electric guitar at age twelve, but switched to bass at age fourteen. In
2004 Anni released an album entitled "Jailbait" in her native Australia, for
which she won "Best New Talent" at the 2005 Australian Blues Music Awards.
Subsequent album releases include 2007's "Texas Hold 'Em," 2010's "Chasin' Tail"
(released by Blues Leaf), and her newest, 2013's "Split Second." Blues Leaf also
released "Two's Company," a compilation from her two Australian releases.
Throughout her burgeoning career, Piper's charismatic stage presence and sultry
vocals have garnered her both great reviews and multiple music industry awards
nominations.
Released earlier this year, Split Second
continues receiving extensive international radio airplay (including charting on
Living Blues) and was a recent "Pick to Click" on SiriusXM's popular
Bluesville show while earning terrific reviews from music critics
everywhere. Dr. Blues writes, "When two hot mama blues divas get it together,
you can assure that fireworks are in store. Piper and Hart lead and follow,
harmonize and highlight each other like sisters from another mother while the
band provides all the heat needed to keep things at a boil."
