Weep not for the CD! Presenting the Back to Wax Revue, live onstage primitivist soundclash featuring genuine wax cylinder recording sessions. Witness performers battle with the original medium of recorded sound, Edison's wax cylinder, state of the art circa 1877. Ponder how recording mediums affect music; what changes in in the midst of form and content?
FEAT: Tom Rodwell (NZ) - gospel-blues primitivist Madame Pamita (LA) w/ K. Boogie - the world's foremost euphonious prognosticatrix Borough Cat (London) - London's doe-eyed dude of dolorum VS The Vulcan Cylinder Record Co. of Sheffield, UK - one of only two studios in the world with the capacity to acoustically record cylinders in the Edison fashion, Vulcan is also the world's only cylinder pressing plant and label.

I was really upset that you and the aviators couldn't come to rouen. but there are some good news anyway... please come on our myspace and listen that great sound christophe made for us. these are three titles from our "soon will be released album".hope you'll like them! you can also visit our new site : www.wimpsbluesband.com
To answer your question, I wish I knew how I get that sound, I just plug straight into a good valve amp and see what happens! No effects or at the most a tubescreamer set on v.v.low for a bit of a boost, no tricks, just warts and all playing. That's how I like it.
Hope to bump into you sometime. You were an inspiration in my early blues playing life.
