Bluestime is the new album by the blues band Jay Doe & The Blues Preachers. Eleven songs recorded between October 2020 and May 2021 during the pandemic, production, mixing and mastering were carried out by Javier Casal at the Habitáculo Sonoro Studios in July 2023.
It is an eclectic album of covers where, although the common denominator is classic electric blues, they play other styles such as rhythm & blues, country and soul. The band wants to reflect what they really like to play live, music based on the classics of the genre with recognizable themes giving it their own style, this is reflected in the different arrangements of the songs, which they make their own and thus differentiate themselves in greater or lesser extent of the original themes without losing their essence.
This way you can recognize Shuffle rhythms (“She's Tuff”, “Big Boss Man”), Rumbas (“Nest Time You See Me”, “Walking To My Baby”), New Orleans aires (“Got My Mojo Working”), country (“Lay Down Sally”, “Call Me The Breeze”), a more forceful power blues song with fuzz guitars (“Memphis Train”), soul and rhythm & blues is reflected in songs like (“Mustang Sally”, “Walking The Dog”) and, how could it be otherwise, a slow blues cut (“Worried Life Blues”) also appears.
For what has been said, we have an album of versions of classics where the link is the blues, but in which each song transports us to a different environment and places in which the band contributes its own arrangements, causing, through listening, a amalgamation of own sounds giving coherence to the entire work.
Personnel: Jay Doe (guitar, vocals); Lucas Fernandez (lead guitar); Alexandre Carrero (bass); Manuel Ares (drums); Ramon Figui (harmonica).

Thanks Rooster
Thanks Rooster! I am going to make sure I label it Spain so that I do not get confuse with the Australia "The Blues Preachers". :)
