The Blues Session - Friday 15th April 2011 Live music in the studio from Gordon Smith, Alan Glen and Jim Mercer. The quality of blues rarely gets better than this... all three artists are a master at what they do. Superb guitar work from Gordon Smith, backed by superb vocals. Alan Glen, one of the top harmonica players in the U.K and a style of his own that other players can only attempt to mimic. Jim Mercer with a circa 1950's double bass that sounds as good as it looks. Live music almost every Friday on The Blues Session on Radio Wey... come join us for two hours of blues. Friday from 9pm listen on-line www.radiowey.co.uk
Brook’s Blues Bar is tucked away off the beaten track in a corner of Fulham that could quite easily be missed unless you had a reason to be there. Going to see The Barcodes launch a new album was more than enough reason. The new album ‘Be Cool’ is the very best from the trio of well seasoned blues and jazz musicians. Alan Glen (The Yardbirds, Nine below Zero, Little Axe and The Incredible Blues Puppies) on guitar and harmonica provided vocals; Bob Haddrell played keyboards, bass pedals and also provided vocals; Dino Coccia (Grace Jones, Harmonica Fats) was on drums. This evening also included guest saxophonist/flautist Nick Newall (Zoot Money’s Big Roll Band).
