EB Davis is an elegant classic Blues singer with a powerful voice, who can just as easily tackle a Roy Brown number as he can do a James Brown song. Davis brings the great Bobby Bland to mind. Live his commanding presence takes control of both his band and the audience, and though dancing all over the stage, he still uses his vocal chords to the maximum. He intersperses high-energy up-tempo numbers with some intimate slow Blues.

Here Davis is backed by The Greyhound Blues Band. Firmly established on the European Blues-circuit, playing their own style of what they call “doggone” Chicago Blues, the Greyhound Blues Band originally acquired a solid reputation backing, or sharing the stage with visiting American Blues musicians such as: Henry Gray, Aaron Burton, Louisiana Red, R.L. Burnside, Greg Copeland, and EB Davis.

Recording information: Wiggo's Audio Support, Roderesch, Holland (02/08/1999). EB Davis (vocals); Johan Meijer (vocals, guitar); Martin Hartsteen (guitar); Willie Pollock (alto saxophone); George Snijder (drums).
