Brilleauvator is an unplugged acoustic adventure, featuring a list of songs from a diverse range of artists that inspired the formation of Brilleaux back in 1999. This is what I describe as a "sit down, shut up, and listen" album as opposed to the usual Brilleaux "get up and dance" kind of album.

Not everything is blues, Not everything is British, and Not everything is original, but it still has a certain Brilleauxness about it, and it does include a couple of previously unrecorded Brilleaux originals that fit the unplugged genre.

Graham Clark: Vocals, Harmonica, Rhythm Guitar; Bruce Rolands: Guitars; Ian Gilpin: Drums and BV’s; Brian Franks: Bass Guitar.

When we were offered the opportunity to record this live show, we almost gave it a miss as we already had a live album, and were in the process of making plans for a new studio album. However, at the last minute we thought “what the hell” and did it anyway, more as an opportunity to roadtest a few new songs before we took them to the studio. Following the precedent set by our previous live album, this recording also features 3 previously unrecorded, unreleased tracks which we anticipate appearing on our forthcoming studio album.

A powerful, no-holds-barred set of high-energy rhythm and blues, comprising of 5 Brilleaux originals and 5 British R&B classics, in the kind of show Brilleaux fans have come to know and enjoy. What you hear on this album is an unadulterated 100 percent live recording of the evening’s proceedings.
