Product Information
Now in their 40th year, the Blues Band was formed by Manfred Mann lead singer / harp player Paul Jones and fellow bandmate, guitarist Tom McGuinness. The original line-up included bassist Gary Fletcher, slide-guitarist Dave Kelly (who’d previously played with the John Dummer Band, Howlin’ Wolf and John Lee Hooker), and drummer Hughie Flint, of John Mayall’s Blues Breakers and McGuinness Flint, the outfit he formed with Tom McGuinness. When Flint left in 1982, he was replaced by Family’s Rob Townsend.
Acknowledged throughout Europe and beyond as one of the finest exponents of authentic rhythm & blues, the Blues Band continue to cut the mustard, writing and playing with passion and conviction to appreciative cross-generational audiences wherever they go.
SCRATCHIN’ ON MY SCREEN
Revisiting the songbooks of Slim Harpo (»I’m Your King Bee«), Arthur Crudup (»Mean Old Frisco«), Doc Pomus (»Lonely Avenue«), Hoagy Carmichael (‘Georgia On My Mind’), and Robert Johnson (»Crossroads Blues«), this is an essential selection of stone classics enlivened by the band’s original numbers.
