The Beau Brummels - Just A Little - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Rolling Stones - Black and Blue (CD-A) Featuring a new 2025 mix by Steven Wilson, Black and Blue from 1976 is the album that inducted Ronnie Wood into the Rolling Stones - featured on 3 tracks and joining the band for the world tour and the next 50 years! - By blending their influences from reggae and funk music with their rock and roll swagger, here come the greatest rock band of them all, with strutting funk riffs of 'Hot Stuff' and foot-stomping rockers like 'Hand of Fate' mixing company with the memorable ballads of 'Fool To Cry' and fan favourite 'Memory Motel'.

The Beau Brummels were formed in San Francisco in 1964 and they were the first nationally successful rock act to emerge from San Francisco; they were also the first American rock band influenced by the Beatles to have a hit. With a Searchers-like sound, the group was dubbed 'America's answer to the British Invasion.They used 12-string guitar, soft harmonies, plaintive harmonica and minor-key melodies, along with Valentino's deep, tremulous delivery, to create a haunting sound that in turn spawned the Byrds and folk-rock.

Highlighting their time spent with Vault Records in the 1960s and engineered by legendary surf rock pioneer Richard Delvey, this album collects some of the Beau's best-loved moments on tracks including 'Laugh, Laugh', 'Good Time Music' and 'They'll Make You Cry'.
