Hambone is an age-old children’s game in which fiery, rhythmic thigh-slapping drives singing shoe-shine boys on to even greater vocal heights. It also describes a mentality that blues musicians should strive for even in today’s modern times.

The Crazy Hambones stripped down line-up of electric blues harp, electric guitar and drums means it concentrates on the essentials, drawing inspiration from the vast legacy of legends such as Muddy Waters, Walter Horton, Little Walter and Sonny Terry. Their onstage chemistry and energy leaves you in no doubt that they want you to enjoy yourselves.

Harmonica player Paul Orta has turned his back on his hometown of Austin, Texas. Now resident in Europe, he has recorded this beautiful new set of classic Chicago style blues - in Germany. The concept is almost minimal art, with no bass. Producer Michael Maass tried to recapture the original feel and sound of his favorite blues recordings. And he did very well. Not just Orta, but also his partners did a great job.

Powered by Paul Orta's fat and powerful tone the trio has recorded a great album of mostly covers from the era when harmonicas were the lead instrument in electric blues. Execllent, and recommended for all fans of retro style blues.
