Dick Heckstall-Smith was an excellent British composer and sax player more close to jazz than to blues, despite he was member of John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers in the early sixties During the nineties he occasionally collaborated with the powerful and good Colosseum band and, although his passion was playing live, he never reached a long regular career that led him to the first line Fortunately at the beginning of year 2002, Robban Hagnas from Finnish Wentus Blues Band contacted him to book him to play with them on a show in Finland Chemistry with them appeared immediately and, as a result of it, Dick and the Wentus Blues Band did an extensive tour along the Scandinavian countries where they could play with Mick Taylor, another former Bluesbreakers member This album is the result of the collaboration of Heckstall-Smith with Wentus Blues Band and also it becomes a final tribute, because unfortunately Dick passed away shortly after This is a blues album with a complete sixties British blues style, trend and sound Enjoy with this recording but especially you ‘mods’ who will be really happy
