"Lets Go Boppin Volume 1" starts with a bang, as you would expect from Knock-Out Greg & Blue Weather. In fact, there's plenty of rocking stuff on this record, along with a few Swedish titles. Håkan Forshult at Last Buzz Records has been the leader of Scandinavian blues for longer than most of us have been listening to the blues. He has found and recorded top artists such as Knock-Out Greg & Blue Weather, Day Warren, Sam Rocket & His Blues Prisoners and Jump 4 Joy. These tunes flow nicely along building a compilation that is sure to appeal to a large base of blues fans looking for a bit of adventure and variety. The usual good work from Last Buzz.

Excellent new studio disc by this killer blues/rock power trio from Sweden featuring the legendary Clas Yngstrom on guitar & vocals. Includes 12 tracks of bad-ass, retro-fied, blues-based, heavy guitar riffage that rocks the blues hard at the Sky High jam:house. Mr. Yngstrom gets down n' dirty, rippin' up his Strat with ass-kickin', powerful Hendrix-inspired six string mojo that represents & exemplifies his long-standing Swedish Guitar Hero status. As an added bonus, an awesome unreleased vintage ZZ Top song called One Step Back written by Billy Gibbons lands on this way-kool rocker. The Sky High - Stone & Gravel disc is highly recommended to serious blues/rock guitar freaks worldwide who dig rockin' hard with the blues.

Freedom, the 12th album from SKY HIGH, featuring "critically acclaimed" Swedish blues/rock guitar legend Clas Yngstrom, is a heavy guitar revelation which includes 16 killer trax (69 minutes) of outstanding, blistering-hot, intense powerful blues/rock riffage of the highest order. Sky High has been together in one form or another kicking blues/rock ass for over two decades (23 years to be exact), played on over 25 t.v. shows, had two top 10 singles and have gigged extensively around the world with over 3000 gigs under their belts including tours of India, Ecuador, Japan, and playing in front of 300,000 people at the "Glasnost '88 Rock Fest." They have also had their music featured in the film "The American Way" starring Dennis Hopper and have even "jammed" with Z.Z. TOP (according to the blues/rock gospel, Billy Gibbons aka Rev. Willy G. preaches that Clas Yngstrom is a guitar GOD!!!)

Although relatively unknown in the States, Clas Yngstrom is well known in certain circles throughout the rest of the world and, for people not familar with Sky High, Freedom is the perfect place to start. For those of you who are familiar with Clas Yngstrom, this is the SKY HIGH album you have been waiting for brother Clas to get down on. On the Freedom disc he takes his guitar rite over the edge and he never looks back. Clas Yngstrom is without a doubt one of the greatest get-down hendrixy heavy guitar axeslingers we have ever heard and he waves his blues/rock heavy guitar freak flag HIGH on Freedom. As an added bonus, Swedish guitar virtuoso Thomas Larsson guests on "Bluestown" & "I ain’t beggin’" where the two Swedish axemasters rip and tear it up on these two killer trax.

In the wake of bands like Fleetwood Mac, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and Canned Heat, Wolfman Jack from Umeå in Sweden has slowly but surely found its place. A simple trio, consisting of John Edén Brändström, vocals and guitar, Magnus Hägglund, bass and Ulf Andersson, drums and vocals. With a couple of hundred gigs all over Sweden. and a few thousand records sold, the band has been given its well-earned reputation as Sweden's hardest working blues band.
The tribute choir from the last album "Now!" (released in 2010) had barely gone quiet before the band once again went into the studio. This time equipped with a big bundle of their own material, as well as some handpicked hits from the past. During the year since the last album, the band has toured extensively with Clas Yngström from Sky High. Together they created the album "Together" which can not be seen other than as a reaction to today's popular music. The album was released on April 8, 2011, on the classic Umeå based label Garageland Records. Over the years the band has been visited by many well-known people, like Sven Zetterberg, Robert "Strängen" Dahlqvist from Hellacopters and Billy Bremner from the legendary band Rockpile and also guitarist for Dave Edmunds for many years.

Thanks Mr.Walker for the info :)
