InfluencesLil' Ed and the Blues Imperials, Luther Allison, Michael Burks, George Thorogood Lil' Ed and his long-time band the Blues Imperials will perform Saturday at the newest blues venue in the area Fat Fish Blue in Levis Commons in Perrysburg..............He finds that the music is drawing some younger fans, and that means a few new clubs. And the music is getting an infusion of new musical blood as well. He singled out JR Clark, of Michigan, as one of his protegees, who shows great promise. "I'm really proud of what he's doing." And that's important for the music's future. "You gotta have that extra punch." » No Comments

   About The J R Clark Band
The J R Clark Band has just recently released their newest CD. The group consists of J R Clark- vocals, guitar, Timson Taliaferro-drums, Sweet Ray Burke-Hammond organ, Boogie woogie Bob Peters-piano, Denny Love- bass, and Tim King-saxophone. From the opening cut on this disc, “Last Call Boogie”, which explodes right out of the barrel with a slide slinging tribute to JR’s mentor and friend Chicago Blues legend Lil’ Ed Williams of “Lil’ Ed and the Blues Imperials”, you know your in for a treat. The raucous slide guitar paired with a boogie woogie piano solo that must have melted some keys off is a great way to set the tone of what is to come. The band feels that this CD has really captured their energy and what it is like to see them live. JR really shows his slide prowess passed down to him from Lil’ Ed on four tracks that have that deep Chicago sound. All tracks were penned by JR Clark except “You Don’t Know”, a cover by the late great Luther Allison. There is a lot of variety with this disc from the blues rock ballad “Getaway” to even a little soul blues on “Let’s go out tonight- revisited”. JR has pulled no punches on this disc and wishes many great hours of listening enjoyment!

From heaven above arrives a fascination,
It..s a personal, glory innovation
To be honest, thankfull and true -
Holy night, I trust in you,
cause you give freedom to everyone,
You spend much love and also fun.
I treasure Christmas through the years,
It..s a magic time, which disappears.
But it comes back again and again,
I..m indeed a Christmas - fan.

I wish you and your family a merry christmas
Love & Peace
