This is the band where you will find Richard Rosenblatt, CEO of fantastic VizzTone record label, as harmonica player. In this album they have managed to develop with an incredible power, intensity and good energy, eleven songs of the most orthodox and genuine contemporary blues, filled with the electric Chicago blues school tradition they feel in debt with.

All band members are old best friends, as their friendship began back in the 70’s. One day they decided to get together in VizzTone basement studios to record a series of instrumental songs, which surprisingly got an amazing popularity among specialized media and friends. It wasn’t until 2020 when they recorded a new album, this time entitled “Small Blues & Grooves”, the first one since 1985, which again got an impressive reception. That’s why the band decided to go ahead and now they have just released a new album “11 X 11” that will certainly delight all their followers.

Eleven songs complemented with some videos on their YouTube channel, eight of them rescued from old recordings plus three new ones, that show the performing strength all them treasure, as well as the chemistry that arises among these musicians and friends, who are Paul Lenart on guitar and vocals, Richard Rosenblatt on harmonica, Bill “Coach” Mather on bass and Chuck Purro on drums and vocals.

A vigorous charismatic recording to be enjoyed over and over without getting bored at any time, I dare say it will be really enjoyed and appreciated by listeners and specialized media.
