Different, Like Everybody Else”. Next up was Boss Caine, a Country Rock outfit fronted by KT Turbo and Adam Rogowski and, on this and other occasions, including the front men of Cardboard Radio. They keep the tempo up most of the time and include some nice guitar work; however, I liked it as well when they slowed down on “Just For Tonight” and “What I did Last Night”. They rocked their way out well with “You Do It For Me”. Check them out if you are up north (of England that is, not London), and check their website for CDs. Hopefully, they’ll be back in London soon.Shanty”, one of their softer numbers featuring acoustic instruments. Things began hotting up with “End of July” while “One of Them” began moving into darker areas. By this time, Andrew had started bringing his slide guitars to the fore. “This Is The Love” and “Bring It Up” kept us on our toes with fine vocals and dark, wild slide. “J2t” and “You gotta know” moved us into a slightly lighter rock phase which proved to be the calm before the storm. “Tianamen” , a new, slower number was followed by “Open”, a showstopper which grew in leaps and bounds to a climax of vocal and slide which left the audience exhausted, not to mention the band. It should be added that the rhythm section is solid and their contribution did not go unnoticed. Many would compare this band with Led Zeppelin, and understandably so. For my money, any resemblance to the aforementioned is coincidental as we are all influenced by someone. These guys are there own men (not to mention band), and what they do is 100% Sevenball. No comparisons are needed, as no other band does this sort of stuff this well at this level. Check their website and myspace as there are excellent CDs to be had, with a new one on the way. Rumour has it that they may be taking up a residence at The Fly so you will have no excuse for not seeing them. Watch this space and keep gigging.9 Ago 2007, 9:39
Gentlemans Gold has that brilliant synth guitar thing that Classix Nouveux had going on (ask your grandads). Singer Patrick performed this track in the audience, with a lucky few being allowed to press the buttons on his sampler, kicking off the vocal samples whilst the rest of the band played live on stage. My new favourite group? Could be.
