Product Information
The guitar master who cut his teeth with avant-garde masterminds The Residents and English pub rockers Chili Willi & The Red Hot Peppers took a break to revisit his first love, the blues, with an 8-piece band, captured live and smoking.
In 1983, Philip "Snakefinger" Lithman was in the middle of a promising career as the go-to guitar player for all things weird. His totally original helter-skelter guitar lines graced many of the records released up to that time by the eyeball-headed Residents as well as a few albums under his own name, and he was collaborating with artists as diverse as The Mutants and ex-Captain Beefheart keyboardist Eric Drew Feldman. So what drove him to abandon all that and create a lecture-demonstration covering the history of the blues?
Rezensionen
,,,,,so macht (Blues-)Geschichtsunterricht Spaß, so kurzweilig und authentisch dargeboten werden hier auch Musikfreunde, die sonst mit Blues nicht allzu viel anfangen können, auf ihre Kosten kommen." (Good Times, Dezember 2013 / Januar 2014)
,,Ein ebenso flotter wie stilechter Ritt durch die Blues-Geschichte." (Rolling Stone, Dezember 2013)
