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!

Slide Records artist: Paul Boddy & The Sidewinder Blues Band - Nosy Neighbors - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Nosy Neighbors, from Paul Boddy & The Slidewinder Blues Band, and it's a cool, straightforward contemporary blues band. Opening with easy shuffle, Trouble Finds Me Everyday, Paul Boddy on lead vocal and guitar sets a solid platform, joined by Glenn Halo on keys, Chuck Hearne on bass and Dave Hollingsworth on drums. Another shuffle, Hanky Panky Blues has a real nice sway with a strong piano solo by Hale and excellent vocal by Boddy who adds some real nice slide. With it's cool Latin beat, title track, Nosy Neighbors, has strong radio appeal with a great melody, hot drum rhythm and real nice slide work by Boddy. Right Way Up is a real nice blues rocker with nice finger work by Boddy, a driving bass line by Hearne and strong backing vocals. Wrapping the release is Trash Can Head, a laid back bluesy rocker with super jammy piano by Hale, and a cool bass line by Hearne. Backing vocals aren't listed on the album, but I do think that they add nicely to Boody's smooth slide work. Solid closer.

Slide Records artist: Paul Boddy & The Slidewinder Blues Band - Friends of Tuesday - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Friends of Tuesday, from Paul Boddy & The Slidewinder Blues Band and it's a cool rocking boogie release. Opening with Over The Hump, a cool rocker with attitude, featuring Paul Boddy on lead vocal and guitar. Chuck Hearne on bass, Glenn Hale on keys and Jim Bowman on drums. With it's firm straight ahead beat, it's a solid opener. Another solid blues rocker, Money on Love, has a cool country blues feel with strong vocal and slide work by Boddy and snappy drum rhythm by Bowman. With a southern rock swagger, Knock My Boots has plenty of kick and a JJ Cale energy. Bowman's tight drum rhythm and Boddy's slide work continue to set the theme for the release. Wrapping the collection is boogie shuffle, Pretty Kitty with a super bass line by Hearne and Mikey Jr. laying down some hot harp riffs. Hale steps up with some real nice electric keys and Boddy circles back with some cool blues guitar riffs making this a solid closer.
