Februari 2008

Just before their break-up in July 2006, the Amsterdam based R&B-punk combo The Chimney Brothers went into the studio to record 10 songs by the legendary songwriter, bass-player, producer, arranger, singer, boxer and hustler Willie Dixon (1915-1992). Featuring tenor saxophonist Felix Roosenstein and various other guests, the Chimney Brothers give their personal interpretation of Dixon’s material - ranging from surf to rockabilly to after hours jazz - making it as much a Chimney Brothers record as any other. The deluxe booklet-like CD is limited to only 200 numbered copies, so be quick to pick one up!
