Hi All. The album is available on iTunes and Amazon today! Search "Peanuts & Monkeys, Earl" and it should be there somewhere. I hope you enjoy it. I would like to say that our host Michael Messer played an absolute blinder on both the recording and producing! Top man!

Earl - Peanuts & Monkeys (Acoustic Records)

Previously trading as My Name Is Earl, the expansion from a duo to quartet has also brought a shorter moniker, but singer songwriter Stuart Earl remains the focus of this collection of blues and soul streaked Americana that sees the band joined by guest legends BJ Cole on pedal steel and blues slide maestro Michael Messer.

Opening with blues shuffle Asleep At The Wheel, it’s a relaxed, easy rolling affair, mellow of mood and melodic of tune, the rock n rolling title track, Faded Glory and BLT all offering different shades of the blues while the steel weeping That’s What Tomorrow Is For, a choppy Mind The Gap, the Band-like Love Song and the soulful The Devil Drives with its tasty slide and keyboards lean to the country side of things.

Nothing immediately leaps out at you, but the more you listen the more you find yourself drawn in to the warmth of the playing and Earl’s voice and before you know it you’re hitting the repeat play more often than you might have first imagined.
