I started a quest to find terrific 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!

That's What Love Will Make You Do - Earl Green & The Right Time


Earl Green is the premier blues voice in the UK. Digital Blues voted him best UK Male vocal in 2004. He has been twice voted best vocalist by the British Blues Connection. Blues DJ Paul Jones – and member of Manfred Man and the Blues Band – described him as delivering "great vocal performances." Juke Blues magazine wrote - "There's surely no more soulful singer than Earl Green in this country."

Born in Jamaica he came to Britain on his thirteenth birthday. Raised in Lewisham he saw T Bone Walker and a host of blues giants in London's clubs. A founder member of Otis Grand and the Dance Kings he recorded two albums Always Hot and He Knows the Blues. In 2000 Earl joined Paul Lamb and the King Snakes and toured with them throughout Britain, Ireland and Europe.

Earl is a prolific and excellent songwriter. His debut solo album Feel the Fire (Abacabe Records ABACA CD 002) featured guest artists like WC Handy award winner Joe Louis Walker, UK guitarists Todd Sharpville and Pete Boss. His latest album A Different Picture (Snakestone Records 20SBO04305CD05) is his best to date. Blues in Britain concluded its review: "As this admirable set shows, class will out, and Earl Green is class."

His career as a vocalist spans close to twenty-five years. He has performed all over the world including the Belgium R&B festival, Jazz Pamplona, the Paloe Festival Lyon, VII festival Internacional Jazz en Escena, Malaga, the Dublin Blues festival, Cork Jazz Festival, Danish Blues festival and the Imatra Big Band Festival, Finland. In the UK he appears regularly at the top London blues venue, the 100 Club as well as at festivals and blues clubs all over the country.

Earl is going back to basics with his latest band. "I am singing just for the fun of it, performing the songs I love by the great blues singers I've always admired from Ray Charles to Jimmy Reed. We're playing the blues the way it should be done." In 2007 they performed at the Trescore Blues festival, Italy and at the Crystal Palace Bowl festival, London.
