About
The sleet was comin' down over the hills near Garstang, it was a cold and dreary night, Keith's way was suddenly lit before this ole timer.
As a musician, already famous for his Fleetwood Swamp Fever Wall of Sound and essence of St Annes Boss House Gospel Blues, he now wanted forge a different melange - a new cacophony... Keith needed to forge a new sensation. Ole Keith knew he needed some beer, inspiration and more musicians but not necessarily in that order. Musicians have proved too hard to find, beer and inspiration has not proved to be a problem
. Hot from his wildly successful tour of Scotland on his Round the U-Bend tour, and after his new album, After the Zimmerframe, went gold, he couldn't resist the challenge of intermingling the sound of a Gibson, Harmony, Epiphone and Marshall with Keith's gruff bluesy brass neck style; so he, tinkered with the PA, donned a cool demeanor and got going. It wasn't until the first session at Studio Dog, in deepest, darkest Blackpool that - in a tribute to that other famous bluesman Howling 'Armitage' Shanks - that he realised the rattling white earthenware in the bowels of the cellar was just a prelude of better things to come.
