HOY! HOY! SHUFFLE ON! LOST IN THE SHUFFLE''s newest release for your discreet perusal. Dig in, the groovin''s fine. Emphasis on shuffle style, the opener sets the pace with a solid reworking of Amos Milburn''s Aladdin Chicken Shackers'' hit - HOUSE PARTY (TONIGHT) featuring solos by Dougie ''Shuggie'' Silveira (guitar, vocals), Allan ''Gnarly Fingers'' Carroll (Hammond B-3) and Rob ''Harmonica Head'' Hager (stang-me-strat-style guitar). Leaving the chicken shack for a more uptown (but ever so greasy) version of Brother Jack McDuff''s - A REAL GOODUN'', you''ll find Silveira and Carroll gettin'' gritty over the able rhythm section of Ron Fillmore (drums) and Guy ''Guido'' Valverde (bass). Next up is JOE''S GOT THE WATER - an original tale of woe regarding the vagaries of consuming home-brew tequila. Penned by Lost In The Shuffle, the performance features the superb piano work of Santa Cruz, California''s own Dale Ockerman who is also featured on the next cut, SAME OLD BLUES / PLEASE SEND ME SOMEONE TO LOVE. Here, the bridge of Percy Mayfield''s classic is seamlessly melded into the verses of Freddie King''s most sophisticated work (Texas Cannonball? Sophisticated?) Check it out! Now to the seamy side of the blues, for your listening pleasure, a burn through Good Rockin'' Roy Brown''s infamous - BUTCHER PETE (PART ONE). Hager''s harp holds forth as he hacks and whacks his way through this X-rated gem. A PLACE NOBODY CAN FIND is from the Stax vaults and was Sam & Dave''s first single. The treatment is a little bluesier than the original but still maintains that oh-so-cool stripper backbeat. LION''S DEN features the amped-up vocal stylings of Guido Valverde, pianist Thom Merida and an additional helping of Hager''s strat. ONE MORE TIME was originally recorded by vocalist Billy Gale with Ike Turner''s Kings of Rhythm. Here Silveira gets into the whammy-bar-rip while Hager lays into the harp. The set closes with a moving rendition of The Band''s (SHUFFLING) BACK TO MEMPHIS, which features ensemble solo work and Carroll''s country-tinged background vocals (I gotta get to Memphis, even if I have to crawl!). Recorded at Magic Sound Studios, Santa Cruz, Calif. - 2004
LOST IN THE SHUFFLE is:
Ron Fillmore - drums
Fillmore has played with blues legend Freddie King, ''Telemaster'' Danny Gatton, Steve Marriot (Small Faces, Humble Pie) and Leslie West (Mountain).
Guy ''Guido'' Valverde - bass & vocals
Always solid and funky. Guido exudes abundant energy whether he''s playing a jump-blues, a walking jazz line, or a syncopated soul riff. His exciting vocal style is akin to Howlin'' Wolf''s or Johnny Copeland''s. Always a crowd pleaser, Guido comes to play!
Robert ''Harmonica Head'' Hager - guitar, harp & vocals
Hailing from Oakland, Ca., Hager is a 30-year veteran of numerous bay area blues bands. Employing a classic ''Strat'', his guitar work burns in the Texas and Chicago blues styles. His harp playing is loaded with tone and soul. Though steeped in the styles of the masters, he brings forth a sound and energy that is all his own.
Dougie ''Shuggie'' Silveira - guitar, mandolin & lead vocals
Drawing from blues & jazz guitar influences, his guitar work combines an uptown blues style with a lowdown jazz groove. His vocal abilities range from classic blues shouter to crooner.
Allan ''Gnarly Fingers'' Carroll - Hammond B-3, clavinet & vocals
Performed and recorded with members of Tower of Power and the Doobie Brothers. Gritty, soulful, authentic tone and technique.
