   About Soledad Brothers
Few bands are so revered by their contemporaries as the SOLEDAD BROTHERS, who formed in 1998 and hail from the same Detroit scene that spawned the likes of the White Stripes, The Detroit Cobras, and the Greenhornes. "The Hardest Walk" arrives a full two years after the release of their acclaimed third album 'Voice Of Treason," and is their best work to date. It transcends the rampant garage blues that had so characterized the band's previous work by taking in a diverse range of influences, from Dr John and Albert Ayler to Syd Barrett and early Neil Young, with some Brit pop melodies and soul grooves added for good measure. The result is a mature, personal, and complex rock'n'roll album not to be missed.

The Hardest Walk is released March 6th in the UK by Loog Records and March 14th in the US by Alive Records.

Review: 'Summer of Love Revue' let's the sun shine in
again

By Pat Craig
Contra Costa Times

"The tribute performers are simply astonishing in
their abilities to not only summon the styles and
personalities of the musicians they are impersonating
but to create the same sort of electric excitement of
the originals. David Lockhart's painfully excessive
capturing of the booze-swilling and constantly
concupiscent Jim Morrison is an encyclopedic homage to
the ethos of rock. Boudeeka's haunting accurate
portrayal of Janis Joplin is a tribute to women in
rock (she also plays the Airplane's Grace Slick) and
the raw emotion that was so much a part of the scene.
Carlton Poward is an almost frightening replica with
his spot-on Jimi Hendrix characterization and inspired
guitar playing.


If you missed out on all the fun, don't worry, They
will having an encore performance LIVE May 3rd at
Bottom of the Hill

Don’t go to Beijing

Burning bright
We’re expected to embrace
The Beijing flame
Human rights
Are denied
So they can play their stupid games

But we couldn’t go to Moscow
Because the Commies were bad guys
But now they want to buy Nike
And they can sell us cheap textiles
And depress all dissent
And that is the democracy we like

Sweat Shop labour
To mark the toys
Stamped with Olympic pride
Crimes of poverty
In a rich nation
Hidden from our eyes

But we don’t delve too deeply
Because we need the market
Don’t want to lose our profits
Or even our position
We’ve got to keep on creaming
That is the democracy
That is the democracy
Keep our nation rich and free
That is the democracy we like

Don’t go to Beijing
Nobody’s going to Beijing
