So what can you expect here @ The Rock & Blues Joint?Music recorded live:because 4 me that is how music is supposed to be heard,LIVE before an audience.We can't be at all these concerts of the bands we like so these live albums are the next best thing.Bootlegs will be added as well but only soundboard quality.Im not a big fan of these audience recordings where you can hardly hear the music. We don't always have the luxury that there is a live album available of course so there will be some studio albums as well.The music will vary from rock and Blues in all it's forms to metal, stoner, doom and everything in between.The post are all my personal favorites but if you would like to see something posted just send me an email and I will see what I can do.EF.

King King was The Red Devils' first and last album they ever recorded, this for Rick Rubin's Def American label.
Don’t know yet if the Red Devils were a cult band or should be enrolled now with the ones with a legendary status. To tell you the truth I don’t know yet either, what evil force drive me to pick up their record many years ago. Cause it’s definitely a devil’s work and at the time didn’t know shit about them. It was one of these strange feelings that made me grab this little plastic thing. Maybe their name and the instant connection my brain made for my favorite football club but I’m sure I impressed also by the mic and the amp photo on the back. Anyway, the Red Devils were one of the last (if not the last) white colored pure Chicago blues band, even though they came from L.A. A pure harmonica wailed tunnel back to the 60s and the legacy that’s left by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band.
You know, playing the blues it’s the same thing as to play punk rock. You don’t need really technical skills, but heart, guts and balls. Easily a dude like Joe Satriani can play these ancient licks, but believe me without the heart and the balls; the results will be at least pathetic.
And that’s what we are talking about here. A band that got “it” for good. No fancy bullshit and no pale imitations here, sir.
Their one and only official release had the responsibility of Rick Rubin and his (then?) company, Def American. I think that Rick lost it over the years.
He’s a master behind the board of course but money makes the world go round, so I really consider this live capture and Johnny Cash’s Def recordings as the last great offerings by him. By the way, the Red Devils backed the Man in Black in some sessions.

Def American put this stuff a few years ago in a box under the title of “Unearthed”. And I tell you guys, they’re fucking haunting! Yeah, that’s the word. But remind me talk about them later in a different post. There’s also a mighty fine and well known bootleg (with many different sleeves) of the Devils doing Chicago classics having as vocalist some Mick Jagger. If you’re a Stone fanatic I’m sure you’ll know about already, but remind me again to talk on this later (I know, I already owe you two more Red Devils posts). This record made California looked like a big swampy land.
Wail and sorrow it’s all over the place. Howlin’ Wolf’s “Mr. Highway Man”, Junior Wells “Cut that Out”, Little Walter’s “Quarter to Twelve” or Sonny Boy Williams’ “Cross Your Heart”, here breathing through a tough monster’s body.
The great late Lester Butler (harmonica/vocals, 12 November 1959 - 10 May 1998 ) was sadly the last of the Mohawks. A force of nature destined to play the blues and blow an harmonica like no other. At least the last 20 years.but for one more time hedonism betrayed talent.
This is the last truly great rhythm & blues record. I'm no blues expert, but i haven't listen to something like this since then and that's A LOT of time. So here's your chance. I was foolin' around to find things on the Red Devils and i came across to this excellent wordpress page - great site in all with lots of info on Lester and the Devils. So, actually was first the Blue Shadows and right after the Red Devils. Sadly no info for previous works as a rockabilly outfit with a female vocalist.@anonymous:'Absolutely top notch the best Blues Band of the last 15 yrs since the original line up of the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and to have two ex-Blasters in their line up was terrific'Well my friend, i haven't give a spin for a quite long time on Thunderbirds records and you are damn right! I must do something for these cats too here!
@Mihaleez: Thanks for finding nofightin.com. That's our site - we are adding more as we go; we plan to have more on the early days of the band soon.Here's the quick story: The Red Devils were an early-80s rockabilly band with Jonny Ray Bartel and Dave Lee Bartel, Emmy Lee on vocals and Scott Campbell on drums. Essentially, this band broke up.In 1988, Jonny Ray and Bill Bateman started the Monday blues show at the King King in Hollywood and called the band 'the Blue Shadows,' after the Blasters tune. Guys came and went until the band became Bateman, Lester Butler, Paul Size and ex-Devils Jonny Ray and Dave Lee Bartel.That's when Rick Rubin and Def American got in the picture.

Rubin, apparently, didn't care for the name Blue Shadows, and asked if they had any other ideas. The Bartel brothers mentioned they had an old band called The Red Devils, and that's what Rubin liked.And that's the story.Check out this YouTube vid of the rockabilly Devils' big hit, Tearin' My Hair Out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHLN3JoRmf8. This is a space 'bout real rock n' roll, created with the hope to promote interest in devil's music! My only intention is to share my passion, entertain and maybe educate. I'm not against file sharing, clearly.
A serious music lover won't stop buying records and CDs anyway, even if he/she got 'em on computer files too. If someone owns the rights to these recordings and wants me to remove the links, contact me on the blog's e-mail (see 'Want List' window) and I'll do it swiftly. Record labels like the ones you see on the links panel must CONTINUE in any purpose on what they're doing.
Help keep those labels going in these difficult times. PS: No time for Re-Ups, sorry (except if the comments panel's packed with such requests), so act quickly.
