REVIEW:

This release is the last one in the Drugstore Tapes series and one more time presents Bill Wyman s Rhythm Kings in Hamburg, this time it is the 2004 concert at the Markthalle. The 2004 tour was quite   long lasting from 30 May through 31 July to promote the Just For A Thrill album that had come out on May 10th 2004, but just three songs from this album are performed here Roll em Pete w ith special guest Axel Zwingenberger on piano (playing also on Honky Tonk Train Blues), Booty Ooty a Johnny Watson composition and Taxman, George Harrison s cover . Here the l ine up included Bill Wyman on bass and vocals, Andy Fairweather-Low on vocals and guitar, Mike Sanchez  on piano and vocals, Albert Lee on guitar and vocals, Terry Taylor on guitar and backing vocals, Graham Broad on drums, Beverly Skeete on vocals, Frank Mead on sax and percussions and Nick Payn on sax, flute and harmonica. Once in a while it is Bill Wyman in person to introduce the concert defining what the Rhythm kings were(are?): not just a rock n roll band, since they also play blues, soul gospel etc. and in fact that is what the songs played are, starting with Etta James If I Can t Have You through the Fendermen s Mule Skinner Blues or Mississippi John Hurt I Shall Not Be Move, let alone Gene Vincent Race With The Devil, Jackie Wilson s I ll Be Satisfied, Tommy Blake s Flat Foot Sam and Tampa Red Don t You Lie To Me here sung by Andy Fairweather-Low .

This is a good recording, strangely in mono; it was a little saturated, so again a bass filter was needed; at the moment it seems there are no more hidden tapes that will be part of this series which has however brought to light some remarkable uncirculated live recordings.


The best toys are the ones that are both educational and multi-purposeful.
