Engel Mayr (guitarist, producer, and songwriter with Russkaja, Dorretta Carter, Hallucination Company, and Percival Duke, among others) has recorded a snotty blues-rock power trio album. Drums, bass, guitar, and his voice – the classic formation of Hendrix, ZZ Top, Kings-X, and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
10 refreshing new blues rock songs with an emphasis on "rock." The renowned German music magazine "Gitarre & Bass" described Engel Mayr's music as "Hendrix-inspired heavy funk," and they're spot on! Songs like "Yeah" and "Praise The Sacred Cow" sound like heavy Hendrix from the swamp, while "Head Up" clearly follows the Texas blues rock vein of ZZ Top.
The album was recorded in just one day, and this spontaneity and joy of playing can be heard in the songs. With Werner Laher (Stella Jones, Semino Rossi, Rounder Girls,...) on bass and Mario Stübler (Russkaja, Vereinigte Bühnen Wien,...) on drums, the studio must have exploded with joy that day!
