A blues rocker with an emphasis on high energy and volume, Fred James understands the sonic possibilities of Fender Strats....Even purists will find this album stokin' their fire.
By the early 1970s Fred Jr. had moved to Nashville, TN to get into the Music business. He worked on the road and in the studio with some of Nashville's finest before launching the Cascade Records imprint in the late 1970s and releasing his own "Music Man" LP and some very rare and collectable 45s by a variety of Roots Music artists. The label also functioned as a "custom" label, releasing records for hire. By the 1980s, Fred Jr. was getting into record production in earnest. His father turned over his IFJM masters to his son in hopes that they could get them reissued and re-licensed. The remainder of the Johnny Harris recordings were promptly licensed to Cadence Jazz and Fred Sr.'s own solo album was released. Fred Jr. also recorded The International Submarine Band, Orion and The Memphis Horns/Markeys. He worked as guitarist with these bands in the mid 1980s. The catalog also has some of the earliest recordings by Mary-Ann Brandon, Mello Mel Owens and Bleu Jackson. All went on to bigger things in the 1990s. Fred soon formed Bluesland Productions and went on to become a force in the independent record world.
