Blues Company Songs With No Words CD

The title already says it all: This compilation is an album of instrumentals only, something that bandleader Tosho Todorovic has had on his to-do list for quite a long time. The album brings together 15 "songs without words" from the last 30 years of the band, which was founded in the German town of Osnabr?ck in the mid-1970s. And that also means that these songs, which were recorded either live or in the studio, reflect the history of the Blues Company and it's various line-ups, with Todorovic and second guitarist and singer Mike Titr? being the only two constant band members over all these years. And there is something else that Todorovic finds remarkable: "You can clearly hear how recording techniques have changed since the 1990s and which possibilities there are today that we didn't have with the older recordings." With three exceptions all of the songs were penned by Todorovic, but of course there is also a version of the Freddie King classic "Hideaway", a long-time staple of the band's live repertoire.
