All You Good People

Reseña del editor Live jammin' acoustic blues, British style. Recorded live in the studio in May 2004, the album has terrific jamming between guitar and harmonica that'll satisfy any blues fan. Highlights include the moody, Mayall-esque "Woman", the intense, Sonny Terry-meets-the-21st-Century improvisation "Sun Clusters", JJ Cale's driving "Call Me The Breeze," and the cool, swinging Lonny Johnson classic "All You Good People." Críticas Sugar Mama UK and Richard Hunter achieve amazing improvisational intricacies. This album is "traditional" and anything but old-fashioned. -- Jon Gindick, creator of “Blues & Country Harmonica Jam Camp” De The Artist I met Dave Carson and Kyoko Monk, a/k/a Sugar Mama UK, one night in July 2003 at the Three Horseshoes pub in Burton Bradstock, Dorset, UK. They played fiery acoustic guitar blues tinged with 30’s jazz and a bit of Mayall, and I had a fine time sitting in with them. I returned to the UK in May 2004, and Dave suggested that we take the opportunity to record an album. I'd been looking for an opportunity to do a blues record, and I was glad to say yes. Dave, Kyoko and I have spent close to 50 years between us playing the blues. Dave and I have also done a lot of work lately with electronics, putting music together the modern way -- literally bit by bit. This record was done the old-fashioned way -- with three musicians in a room, playing and singing together in front of the mics. There are no overdubs. It's a faithful recreation of a day of inspired music-making, where the instruments are saying new things to each other in a language that is almost a century old, always growing, forgetting nothing. The blues is traditional music. That tradition now includes musicians like myself and Sugar Mama UK, born of very different times and places than the 20th century masters, exposed to sounds and ideas from literally everywhere in the world. We hope these songs surprise and delight fans of the traditional masters. We hope they also delight people who are hearing the blues for the first time -- and those who feel that way whenever they hear the blues. Richard Hunter, February 2005 Artista biografía Richard Hunter's recordings include "The Act of Being Free in One Act" and "The Second Act of Free Being", the world-renowned CDs that have redefined modern solo harmonica style.

He has performed on five continents, and his work has been heard worldwide on hundreds of sessions for film, TV, and radio. Sugar Mama UK's Dave Carson was lead guitarist and songwriter for "La Strada", and has led British blues duo Sugar Mama UK with Kyoko Monk for six years.
