NRBQ--An Everything-American band - jazzboCR - 20-12-2014
Truly, there is no other outfit I know of that not only combined so many elements of American popular music but did it so well. Let their Wiki convince: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NRBQ A discog spanning 45 years, mostly brilliant: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/nrbq-mn0000377908/discography The Site: http://www.nrbq.com/ << As quirky yet internally consistent as they are...3 of the members have individual Sites too.

NRBQ--An Everything-American band - SteveO - 20-12-2014
NRBQ, New Rhythm and Blues Quartet! For many years I have always seen the band name NRBQ (which I thought was a little strange) but was never tempted or never had the pleasure of hearing this band! 12 Bar Blues is great, as well as the other clips! A blend of blues, rock and a jazzy influence as well! Thanks for finally exposing me to NRBQ, Jazzy!
