On Friday evenings in pubs over pints of beer (in this case trappist beer Orval), plans are often hatched. On one such occasion, two unique characters devised a plan to make music together. Their shared love for blues from the 1950s and 1960s quickly established the musical direction they would pursue. Putting their words into action, they went into the studio after just two rehearsals armed with infectious grooves, fragments of lyrics, and a whole lot of passion. One of them wielded an old Airline guitar and Fender Deluxe amp, while the other brought along a dozen Hohner harmonicas, an antique bullet microphone, and a dusty 5-watt amplifier.

Two afternoons later, they emerged from the studio with ten tracks. Everything you hear on the abum. "Bad Love," was recorded live (with the exception of the kazoo and washboard on "Greasy Meat" which were overdubbed), and the imperfections (of which there are quite a few) were intentionally left untouched. These ten blues songs. with their raw texture. shuffle along gently, sometimes aiming for the hips and other times tugging at the heartstrings. "Bad Love" is more than just a tasty interlude - it is an infectious collection of original compositions complemented by two covers (C.C. Rider, Rambling On My Mind).

Personnel: Steven Troch (vocals, harmonica); Bart Jult (guitar).
