The weather is hot – so what better treat than Hot Foot Blues, Bill’s track of the week, taken from Double Bill and now available for your listening pleasure.
Bill’s track of the week is the wonderful Hot Foot Blues – perfect music for a summer weekend with friends, and the perfect excuse for a few drinks! Hot foot Blues features the vocal talent of the one-and-only Mr Gary Brooker, along with the rest of Bill Wyman’s Rhythm Kings line-up.
Listen to Hot Foot Blues:
Hot Foot Blues is taken from the album Double Bill. This Rhythm Kings double album CD features star-studded performances from some of the greatest artists in contemporary music, including: Albert Lee, Gary Brooker, Martin Taylor, Ray Cooper, Andy Fairweather Low, Georgie Fame, Chris Rea, George Harrison and on vocals the velvet voice of Miss Beverley Skeete. And, of course, Bill Wyman – the mastermind behind the album together with his writing and producing partner Terry ‘Tex’ Taylor.
The Rhythm Kings album contains six new compositions, as well as some old favourites including the classic, Love Letters, which was released as a CD single on 30th April 2001 and featured one of George Harrison’s last performances before his tragic and untimely passing.
“The whole idea behind the band was to play music that we love, and I think you can hear and feel that on our records. It’s also great to work with people I’ve known for many years. I hope that when you listen to Double Bill you will feel the rapport that we have,” says Bill Wyman.
You can buy Double Bill as part of the four album collection The Kings Of Rhythm: Keep On Truckin’ from Bill’s official online store.
