Very proud to announce the release of my debut studio album “For Those Who Need The Blues”. The release date is April 4th. Nothing big and clever just nine filthy and primal twelve bar blues tracks recorded completely live in one or two takes.... just like this sort of blues should be recorded. Here’s track 1 from the album “Shady Heart”:

Purchasing information will be published next week in the meantime if you like what you hear please LIKE my new facebook page:www.facebook.com/gilesrobsonbluesharp

The whole groove sounds like 70's T-Birds just before they got signed to John Fahey's Takoma label. Cool!!!

I know something is good when I shut my eyes and feel like i'm sitting in a smoke-filled blues bar about 30 years back. Really like this!

(OT: to 1847 - I've often wondered about that Facebook thing myself. Figure there's a reason, but I've no idea what it is)

Thanks all for the feedback! Yes we were after that classic dirty and basic roadhouse blues sound. It's so pleasurable stripping the music back to the core essentials and going for it! We had a blast in the studio and I was blessed with a great set of musicians who just nailed it in one or two takes.

We're trying to run the whole thing off the Facebook page for this release to see if it works without a website. All LIKES really appreciated :) thanks again !
