BONDI CIGARS "mercy" cd,1998
career stats:
stuio albums......9
compilations......1
singles..............0
this album: no chart entry
this is the fifth of nine studio albums from these Aussie blues guys...
i used to know their singer/writer Shane Pacey many years ago but we sort of got lost in the midsts of time and space....
band have twice been nominated as best blues and roots band here, but didnt win either time...winning aint everything i guess, just to be recognised is just as good in some respects!
anyway,
this is laid-back blues from whiteboys so guess its not real blues, songs have a few tinges of country and slight funk to them at times...
well written,performed and produced IMO as the casual listener.
these guys are still touring here and probably do so on and off for probably eight months a year, a very very good live band with a huge following amongst the blues fans here and bar fans in general.
im not very optimistic about youtube links from this album,so i'll be happy if there's a couple including my favourite...
