| Blue Notes from Underground Talented London Underground busker John Albert has given in to demands from Underground commuters for him to release a CD of his well-loved Blues music. The Album, Blue Notes from Underground, is a compilation of John's best-loved tracks, including Georgia by Willie Nelson, Whiskey by Champion Jack Dupree and Stormy Monday by T-Bone Walker. The album also features John's own original tracks All You People and Blues Muse. "You must get this stuff recorded, " remarked independent producer Eddie Martin. "You don't have a CD? Then you've got to make one, " said Marcus Clark, proprietor of I&E Records. Publisher Frances Quesnel remarked: "Brilliant, I love that bluesy quality in your voice, do you have a CD? You should do!" These are only some of the expressions of appreciation John receives daily. John has been an London Underground busker since March 2005, after successfully passing the challenging London Underground busking audition and being handed his official licence. Commuters can often spot him at lunchtime playing his favourite pitch at Bank station. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
