Mississippi Mud Reviews Review #1. Mississippi Mud No Stranger here... in fact a prominent
force on the music all through the 90's, with San Diego Music Award nominations
from 1994-2001. Voted Best Blues Band in San Diego for
1995, 1996 and 1997 with The (original) Mississippi Mudsharks. Taking names, kicking serious tail and
leaving a trail in 1999 and 2000 with The Tiki Torchers burning up the
beach area clubs... now here it is down to 2002. Fans, Friends and those yet to be iniated
will be glad to hear that Scottie Blinn is back on the road again and
hitting it as hard as ever with Mississippi Mud. This combination of Scottie Blinn's blistering
guitar work and gutsy vocals, with Eric "Jailhouse" Von Herzon's
deep dark harmonica tone and rhythm that knocks you out of your seat.
Throw in this amazing tag team rhythm section and you have a soulful energizing
experience that will have you up in a flash. The new CD is about 50 minutes with a
little sumpin' sumpin' for everyone... 13 tracks that I'm sure will have
you snappin' them fingers and tappin' those toes... and is sure to pick
up any house rent party that might be planned in your neighborhood.. The selection of tunes heard here blend
traditional and modern styles equally well with a sincere intensity, and
these fellas get started right out of the gate with the acoustic based
bottom dwelling All You Need Is...and just keep rockin' like a
Southern California Earthquake through the rest of it all. These Cats give it their all every night and whether it's in an intimate venue such as The Tiki, or Etta's Place, the world famous Blue Cafe, at a Belgium Blues Festival or the maddening rush of the San Diego Street Scene they are pouring heart and soul (and alot of sweat) into this music.
The band will soon be rocking them up
real good, watch for the Mississippi Mud and catch this smokin' band when
you can. CD is available along with gig and tour
