This blues band, headed by Professor Doug Bell on guitar and vocals, recorded this 13 track disc at the Half Note Jazz Club in Athens, Greece. Boston area fans of Bellevue will not be surprised to hear the Athens audience receive the band as enthusiastically as they are back here on their home turf.The best way to describe Bellevue Cadillac’s sound is blues that flows with the fluid, free, largeness of jazz. The horn section is responsible for much this group’s swinging, swaying mounds of sound. Yet, the others also play their instruments with a mastery that allows them to stretch the frameworks of blues song structures. Throughout the disc, these players express the sheer joy of music with an inspiring sense of fun.

On this live outing Bell and his boys jump, swing, rattle, and roll with juicy instrumental portions, and winsome vocal lines. Bell applies his handsome vocal in a warm embrace of his street wise yet romantic lyrics. On “Snake Charmer” Keyboardist Tim “Miles” Long turns up the bluesy organ charm with rich, thick notes and swirls. Bell, with his mellifluous mid range croon, takes it around the block with much vocal power. ~Bill Copeland
