Out on parole from “Doo The Doo “, The Honeymen, Jimmy and Elmor Jazz, revisit the music of the “Juke-Jointsâ€, a raw, a rough, and a ready Blues that takes no prisoners.Their music is a heartfelt tribute to their heroes : the “Excello†Swamp sound of Lightnin’ Slim, Lazy Lester , Lonesome Sundownand Slim Harpo, The early Chicago Blues created by Muddy Waters , Bo Diddley and Little Walter...The Sun records era of Howlin’ Wolf , James Cotton and Doctor Ross just to name a few. Texas Blues of the Lightnin’ hopkins , Mance Lipscomb and Frankie Lee Sims. The hynotic Mississipi Hill Stomp, of the much missed David Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside.Ponctuated by frenetic harmonica riffs , driven by solid “trash†guitar picking and beating with the Swamp Box ( a foot stomping box conceived by Jimmy) the music of the Honeymen will lead you into a joyous and hypnotic Blues that’s capable of transforming any luxurious lounge into a torrid Juke Joint!
