WHAT'S BEING SAID ABOUT
BRAD VICKERS & "LE BLUES HOT!"
"The result of this long, imaginative jam of hokum blues, dusty jazz manouche, and boogie, are incomparable—and not only in the revisited: original pieces like "Freight Car," "'A' Rag," and especially "Mississippi Shadows," a noir masterpiece with a bit of tension and restlessness, frame "Le Blues Hot" as one of the most uninhibited, original works of these years."
—EDUARDO FASSIO - Il Blues, Italy
"This exhilarating collection encapsulates several genres of roots music…Vickers does a wonderful job on guitar and has a nice, soothing voice that is a perfect fit with the material…it’s obvious that Vickers and company had a ball recording it... What may be most impressive is that the group’s original tunes fit so seamlessly with the older songs…Le Blues Hot is just what the doctor ordered for fans needing a fix of old-timey blues, jazz, and ragtime."
—GRAHAM CLARKE - Blues Bytes
[“Le Blues Hot”] is another fave of the year for me!
—Olivia Greene - host, WWOZ, New Orleans
" "Le Blues Hot" seduces and wraps you up you from the first song. New York singer/guitarist Brad Vickers, former bass guitarist and sideman for a long list of top bandsmen, is himself a star of exceptional range, as he sings, plays guitar, and composes his own songs. With seventy minutes of sparkling music, Brad scores a direct hit. An ideal "Hot" welcome to the New Year"
—MARCIE GEUKENS - Rootstime, Belgium
"Brad Vickers may be known to some from his recordings with Pinetop Perkins, Hubert Sumlin, or Little Mike & The Tornadoes; or maybe you've been lucky enough to catch his shows. He tunes his guitar in "Vestapol", hence the band name—and what a band! Sax and clarinet master Jim Davis (Hubert Sumlin, Paul Oscher) adds an old-fashioned jazzy feel, drummer Barry Harrison is best known for his work with Johnny and Shemekia Copeland—which speaks for itself—and bassist and sometime fiddler and singer Margey Peters is a familiar name to New York blues watchers (both she and Barry play with Big Frank & The Healers). Special guest the up-and-coming Dave Gross supplies guitar and upright bass, too, but this is Brad's album, as he turns in excellent slide guitar numbers (occasionally tending towards the Hawaiian, or on "I'm Homesick", guess who?), skiffle, hokum and/or ragtime-styled tunes, or fine down-home blues. A very distinctive and appealing sound."
—NORMAN DARWEN - Blues Art Journal, Austria
"Le Blues Hot is precisely that, a singularly unique masterpiece of music, which, in its simplicity is literally brilliant...each song is better than the last...highest praise goes to Brad Vickers & His Vestapolitans."
5 STARS! soundguardian.com
—MLADEN LONCAR - Radio/KRIZEVCI 96.60, Croatia
"Guitarist Brad Vickers & His Vestapolitans maintain a good-time feel with Jim Davis’ saxophone and clarinet evoking a New Orleans party on ‘Where Can My Baby Be?,’ and the ensemble lending ‘Hesitation Blues’ a fresh old-time jazz arrangement. Dave Gross adds guitar to ‘On The Sunny Side of The Street,’ hear roots rock in ‘Woogie On Down’ and ‘Gonna Quit You,’ and find solid Chicago blues in ‘Boogie for Jimmy Reed’ and ‘I’m Homesick’.”
—TOM HYSLOP – Blues Revue
"Brad Vickers & His Vestapolitans’ “Le Blues Hot” has a great sound, and a lot of fun, spirited tunes. With 20 tracks of recorded work, it will get a lot of airtime here on "AB!”
