Here I will give you information on updates 'n' changes.

For Guestbook, About Me & Friends In Blues - see below!

DANA GILLESPIE

She's been in the business for "decades". She started as drummer in her very early youth, British water-ski champion, actress, participated in several musicals... Dana used to hang around with David Bowie, Mick Ronson, Andy Warhol. Bowie and Ronson did also produce a couple of her albums in the early '70s. Bob Dylan calls her whenever he's in Britain. She also a did a tour with him some years back.

You can't avoid to be a fan of such a Lady. Up to now I have about 104 releases feat. Dana Gillespie and lots of magazines and pictures.

Do yourself a favoure and check her out!

BUGS HENDERSON

Mr. Shuffle King comes from Houston, Texas. In the '60s he played in a group called Mouse And The Traps.

He's still goin' strong. His son, Buddy, plays drums in The Shuffle Kings.

For all who: "Have Blues...Must Rock"!

MOJO BLUES BAND

A fantastic band from Wien, Austria. They have been in the business for about 25 years. Earlier on they played a mix of blues and zydeco/cajun. They bluesroots go back to Chicago and Louisiana. These days it's a bit more traditional blues...

THE INMATES

The Inmates was one of the first groups I got into in the early '80s. So you can say their music has followed me in "thick 'n' thin" ever since. They're just incredible.

MICKEY JUPP

Mickey Jupp's A Legend. Period!

STEVE GIBBONS

The Ultimate Rock 'n' Roller!

I guess his first band was The Ugly's once in the '60s. A collection of their stuff will be available in May 2004.

He got one of my Top-10 party tunes: "B.S.A."!

BLUES 'N' TROUBLE

Scottish Rockin' Blues lads fronted by the terrific harmonica player Tim Elliott. This picture is from a live gig in Odda (vest in Norway), 2002.

Alan "Scotty" Scott - the bass player - has now quit the band (early 2004). Pity!

The band who got me into music. I love this 'em!

ROD PIAZZA &
THE MIGHTY FLYERS

I love the blues of Rod "Gingerman" and his wife Honey, Bill Stuve and related. The Most Lovin' Blues On The Planet Earth!

Picture from Lillehammer Bluesfestival, Norway, 2002.

RORY BLOCK (new April 2004)

She is borned Aurora Block. The first album I got by Rory is her participating on an album by Stefan Grossman called "How To Play Blues Guitar". An amazing blues guitar picker and a stunning voice! Picture from Notodden Bluesfestival, 2000. Here with the legendary John Sebastian on harmonica.

BIG JOE LOUIS & HIS BLUES KINGS
(new May 2004)

Here you have the Jamaica-borned ultimate Blues Shouter Big Joe Louis, but living in England. His first LP came in 1989 on Mike Vernon's legendary label Blue Horizon Records. On his next release he was teamed by another wonderful harmonica player with this unique soul vocal Little George Sueref. The picture is taken by me at the Molde Jazzfestival, Norway, July 22nd, 2001. Big Joe Louis then fronted Big Town Playboys.

STONE THE CROWS FEAT. MAGGIE BELL
(new May 2005)

This gorgeous Scotish band released their first album in 1969. Even though they grew quite big in their home town Glasgow in the late '60s and early '70's, they aren't too well-known among the people today... Do yourself a favour and listen to the stunning vocal of Maggie Bell and the guitar playing of Leslie Harvey! Blues rock at its best, if you ask me!

Please feel free to enter a few words. I would love to hear from people out there who share my interest in music. Do you have comments, criticism... Maybe I can meet a Lady In Blues too...
Just a few words about myself and a really stupideous picture taken by some "good" friends of mine - LOL...
Friends, artists, mail order companies, labels...
