Gwyn Ashton, the sizzling blues-guitar man, has done it again with his sixth album “Radiogram”, another awesome CD that makes you want to shake it! Following up his acclaimed 2009 album, “Two-Man Blues Army”, blues guitarist Gwyn Ashton hits it out of the park with this disc, a ten track feast of thrilling and sizzling guitar passion. The album is a release which, with great variety, continually leaves one excited and wholly satisfied. Songs like the brilliant track, “Let Me In”, with its teasing blues swagger and great mouth organ mastery really satisfies. The simply hypnotic instrumental “Bluz For Roy” closes the album, and alone, shows why the guitarist is so strongly thought of. As a bonus, Kim Wilson sits in.

Gwyn Ashton was born in Wales and grew up in Adelaide, South Australia. His guitar playing was first inspired by musicians from the Australian scene, such as Chris Finnen, Kevin Borich and Ian Moss, along with favourites Chuck Berry, and Hank Marvin. In 1985, Gwyn moved to Sydney joining John Swan's band Swanee, and by 1986 he had teamed up with ex-Easybeats vocalist Stevie Wright and members of Jimmy Barnes's band. Malcom Young's nephew James played drums with Gwyn for a time and introduced him to Mal, who came to a few of Gwyn's gigs before resuming his tour dates with AC/DC. Gwyn spent most of the Eighties playing in almost every bar in Australia impressing many international musicians, including Mick Fleetwood, who sat in with Gwyn's band one late night in Adelaide.

"Feel the Heat" showcases all aspects of Gwyn Ashton's talent: from hard-rocking tracks "Loaded 6 Shooter", "Ain't Got Time For That Stuff", "Wanted Man" and "Too Late", which are packed with energy, and are indicative of the band's powerful performances on stage, to slower blues songs such as "Someone Like You", which are steeped in the greatest of musical authenticity. Gwyn also shines on the acoustic numbers "Bad Luck Blues" and "Take Me Back Home", with soulful, emotion fuelled vocals.

Gwyn Ashton composed all songs on "Feel the Heat", which reveal his immense talent as a musician and songwriter.
