:: Release Notes:
::
:: Chicago Sun-Times
:: Few groups in the world can match The Siegel-Schwall Band for
:: the sheer joy of their music.
::
:: Product Description:
:: ItÆs been over 40 years since harmonicist/pianist/vocalist
:: Corky Siegel and guitarist/vocalist Jim Schwall met as
:: college students and formed The Siegel-Schwall Band, one of
:: ChicagoÆs most beloved blues groups. From the mid-1960s
:: through the mid-1970s, The Siegel-Schwall Band recorded ten
:: critically acclaimed albums, toured relentlessly, and shared
:: stages with artists such as The Allman Brothers, Janis
:: Joplin, and Jefferson Airplane. Their subtle,
:: acoustic-flavored blues, original songs and inventive
:: interpretations of classics by Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon and
:: other blues greats were their calling card, fusing urban
:: blues and folk into their own unique sound. In addition to
:: their recordings, the band was renowned for their high
:: energy, good-time live shows. They played to adoring
:: audiences all over the U.S., which prompted Billboard
:: magazine in 1966 to call The Siegel-Schwall Band "the latest
:: addition to the list of great South Side performers that has
:: included Muddy Waters, HowlinÆ Wolf and Chuck Berry." In
:: 1968, they defied boundaries by combining blues and classical
:: music with their unprecedented performance of Three Pieces
:: For Blues Band And Symphony Orchestra with the Chicago
:: Symphony Orchestra, and established themselves as one of the
:: most adventurous bands around. The Siegel-Schwall Band went
:: on hiatus in 1974, and while band members pursued other
:: interests and solo projects, they never stopped playing music
:: Flash Forward rekindles The Siegel-Schwall Band magic as
:: Corky, Jim, Rollo and Sam share the spotlight on 13 new
:: songs. From Sam's straight-ahead blues shuffle "Afraid of
:: Love" to the politically charged humor of JimÆs
:: "Underqualified Blues" to Corky's playful blues tango
:: Twisted, and the edgy lament of RolloÆs "Krazy," Flash
:: Forward is an infectious, joyful listen from beginning to
:: end.
::
:: The Chicago Tribune proclaimed, "The news that The
:: Siegel-Schwall Band is back together is something to
:: celebrate." And so is Flash Forward, The Siegel-Schwall
:: BandÆs new CD, and their first full album of new material in
:: 30 years. Flash Forward picks up right where they left off.
