About Me
BLUE FIX is blues in the true old school fashion. the tapes found here are recently discovered recordings by these great but obscure bluesmen, who were active in the mid fifties until the early sixties, when sadly they were killed in separate mysterious accidents on the old hiways just outside las vegas on jan 3 1963.
SHEEEIT. "BLUE FIX" is a really trashy little blues outfit erected by members of "THE BLAZE MALAISE" and "VALENSLUV" We just felt like getting really cheap and filthy...it just all hangs out... slithering just between the fine line of the "classy" and "in-humane".
after having achieved some notoriety in the deep blues and reds communities, they droppen into obscurity, until their bizarre simultaneous deaths occured, seemingly completely unrelated incidents. that was the last headline for the BLUE FIX.
jan 4 1963 obituary read,
blues giants andrew "slim" berenyi, and gregory "loverboy" valensluv were tragically but totally annihilated in two unrelated but nearly simultaneous firey car crashes on the outskirts of las vegas last night at about 3 am. "slim's car was hit by that there truck there, at the crossroad right up yonder," said patrolman freenbeen.
and in the case of valensluv, no one is sure what really happened, he just drove into one of the few trees available for driving into, reported chief inspector chet angryman.
no narcotics or alcohol were found in either vehicle, as the two estranged musicians had been completely sober for nearly 39 seconds.
valensluv and berenyi met on the blues scene in memphis around 1953, and actually did back elvis on several of his early sun hits, as rumors have been confirmed true. they also did EVERYTHING FOR jerry lee lewis who as it turns out was like milli vanilli, then REALLY fucked everything up when he married his 13 year old cousin. you know that story right?
after being side men in different acts they finally formed the BLUE FIX group in 1958, proving that they were very stupid men, as that is when southern electric blues began to lose popularity to "rock and roll" even though elvis, johnny cash, little richard, james brown, chubby checker, the beatles, the rolling stones, led zeppelin and ALL the greats claimed the duo to be primary influences, of the 17 LPs that were recorded, only 3 copies are reported to ever have sold. so just like so many other creepy mysterious and unexplained weird stories of the blues men, this one too is totally and deservedly forgotten
UNTIL NOW.
the vaults have been opened and the tapes are being carefully restored to their original condition for a release of a box set. BLUE FIX. THE FIX IS IN.
