Um Himmelswillen - Lazy Diamonds? Nun, diesen Begriff findet man nicht in jedem Wörterbuch, doch wenn, dann wird der Eintrag dort ähnlich diesem Text lauten: Lazy Diamonds: Ziemlich exzentrische Individuen, jetzt im Dreierrrudel anzutreffen und mit schwarzen Anzügen bekleidet. Ihr Alter konnte nie richtig ermittelt werden. Sicher ist nur, dass es während der letzten zehn Jahre konstant geblieben ist. Durch Schreiben und Spielen bodenständiger bluesiger Songs mit viel Enthusiasmus neigen sie dazu, beim Publikum euphorische Gefühle zu erzeugen. Natürlicher Lebensraum: Clubs und Kneipen, sowie alle große Bühnen dieses Planeten, wo roher und echter Blues-Rock noch gegenwärtig ist. Unglücklicherweise wird besagter Lebensraum immer knapper, so dass wirkliche Live-Sichtungen immer kostbarer werden. In ihren Adern pulsiert seit Jahrzehnten das wahre Herzblut für die Musik – eigenständiger kann Blues-Rock nicht gespielt und gesungen werden.   If you support live Blues acts, up and co...

I have been listening to the newest release, Try Me , by Meena . The recording contains 9 original tracks as well as a few classics and Meena is backed by Dave Smith on bass, Steve Potts on drums, Rick Steff on keys, and Chris Fillmore on guitar. First up is the title track, James Brown's classic Try Me . Meena is backed on vocals by Vickie Atkins, Sandy Carroll and Amyee Bragg who give it a genuine soul flavor. Guest artist Joanne Shaw Taylor plays a beautiful melodic solo staying in character with the tune. Send Me A Doctor is a rock track with Eric Sardinas contributing some cool slide guitar flare. Put Your Hands Out Of My Pocket is a solid soul fused blues track showing Meena's vocal range and giving Chris Fillmore a chance to play some pretty tasty guitar riffs. This Song Is For You would work nicely on the airwaves with a classic hook and memorable tune. Again Fillmore plays some tasty guitar riffs topping up an already strong entry. Meena belts out an enriched versio...

To understand what has it with the phenomenon BLUE BLUES MONDAY TAPE on itself, we must hear first of all an investigation of the etymological genesis of subtitle belonging to tape: Westcoast Jumpblues at its Best of all! We prim Vorarlberger are not to us probably completely about that in the clear that we really live on the west coast. On the one hand, our federal state moves on massive mountain coasts and along river runs. To the other it concludes just westwards with a federal state that could one day see neither the roots of the Chicago-Blues, nor the origin of the swing.For it Central Europe was away at the middle of 19-th century simply too far from the American south states. Yes, and the time turns in the Austrian west just her own rounds. 1987 the urgently necessary history writes in addition suddenly completely from only. And the Blue Monday blues tape remains loyal for now 25 years of this history. Who compares the old pictures of the combo to the topical press photos, sees ...

For many years the singer coming from the forest quarter and guitarist inspires his audience with wonderfully touching dialect songs and a strong slope to blues. His songs treat in frank and urgent kind of stories of the failure. Somewhere in the last corner of an alcohol-watered bar there originates a soundtrack wrapped in bluesige sounds of a life which knows how to touch the listeners by his thick atmosphere. Nevertheless, with all darkness the texts and the music are earthy, full lives and poetry. They come along with a winking and black humor. Musically Miksch is open after many sides what makes an unequivocal categorization heavy. The autodidact walks on his quite own way.

This charismatic musician, widely known for the skill to achieve intimate contact with the audience, is quite critical and even hard, he says, "totally wrong conception of blues Europeanised", today now recognizable, according to him, an artificial rock-blues.

Al Cook was born Alois Kurt Koch on February 27th 1945 in Bad Ischl, Upper Austria, but spent his entire life in Vienna. Music was no subject to him, until he came in touch with Rock And Roll Music on July 25, 1960, watching an old Elvis picture from 1957, called “Loving You”, which changed his attitudes to music and life forever. Al Cook tried hard to escape a dull existence as a laborer in a mechanical factory. From then on, he wanted to live a decidedly artistic and free life, but he had to keep patient for nearly 13 Years to overcome with his music. In October 1963, Al Cook bought himself a cheap “campfire-box”, as he likes to identify his first guitar and launched his rocket exactly a year later, on October 17th 1964 at an amateur-variety show. But the era of Rock n Roll died, in Al Cook’s eyes, with the clipping of Elvis sideburns at the close of the 50’s. Al Cook’s appearance turned out to end up in a disastrous failure, because the Beatles had killed the RnR Stars and the music...
