cameo blues band all play and no work album cover

All Play and No Work by Cameo Blues Band (mp3 Download)

A friend first brought me to the Cameo Lounge at the Hotel Isabella in 1979. He wanted me to hear this great piano and B3 player he had discovered. I was knocked out then as I still am by Ray Harrison’s incessant and driving left hand and idiosyncratic right hand figures. I feel it is shameful that the Cameos never recorded a studio album, and set about to rectify this omission in Toronto’s recorded Blues history.

Footwork by Anderson/Sloski (mp3 Download)

Anderson / Sloski (The Joint Chiefs of Soul)

Hammond B3 and Drums Duo with Vocals

Aptly named, this CD of original and cover tunes features some hot ‘footwork’ from both these talented performers. Lance Anderson is a practitioner of the almost lost art of playing bass using both feet on the Hammond organ foot pedals. His feet literally dance through this solid collection of Soul and Blues standards. All eight limbs are employed by the duo, who sing as well.You will not believe your ears — that two people made all this music.

Track Listing:

1. Funk You Up
2. She Caught The Katy
3. Down At The Ottawa House
4. World Of Love
5. Right Place Wrong Time
6. Footwork
7. Chillin’
8. Devil with the Blue Dress
9. Michael’s Blues
10. Superstition
11. Gospel Time
12. Will It Go Round in Circles
13. All About My Girl (Ol’ Bitch)
14. Where There is Love

2B3: The Toronto Sessions (mp3 Download)

The power and sound of two Hammond B3s. A Cult following for this groundbreaking CD!

Seven of Canada and North America’s premiere players came together over three days to play with and against each other in an old fashioned ‘cutting’ session. All present for each sessions, ready to be called on, to spontaneously ‘go out and give it a try.’ A soul classic here, a rock standard next, with a few originals thrown in. Back to back organs and a dream rhythm section. Turn on the recorders and capture the drama.
