Vocalist/keyboardist Chris "Blue" Coltrane grew up in Fresno, California, but is now based in the Eugene, Oregon, area. He cut his blues teeth performing in predominantly all black blues joints while still in his teens, and his vocals are solid and distinctive.
Messin' With the Blues is billed as "Blues With a Jazz Fuse", and most of the songs are backed by a full horn section. The band is tight and talented, and even though guitar is not heavily featured there are a few good slow blues guitar solos scattered here and there along with the occasional harmonica fill.
Personnel: Blue Coltrane (organ & vocals); Harley Hawkins, Suburban Slim, Tim Kelly, Randy Herb (guitar); Bill Rhoades, Little Willie P. (harmonica); Georges Bouhey, Mack Singleton, Ron McChesney, Tim Curle (drums); Tim Clarke, Chris Schell, Nate Wooley (trumpet); Ricky Sweum, Eric Barber (tenor sax); Brooks Brown (alto sax).
