"Really disappointed to have my time wasted by pathetic and unethical use of the name of a really professional group now disbanded but always remembered as a tremendously talented, and who gave us so much good music. I find this kind of promotion not only dubious but extremely annoying when seeking original artists material."

Blue Shadows...

"Many online music/CD outlets do not know their British instrumental Shadows from their Atlanta, Georgia blues Shadows, and you'll often find both sets of the bands' albums listed together. This is absurd, as they couldn't be more different. These boys are as hot and rockin' a blues band as you'll find anywhere. Of their 4 available CDs (all worth checking out), this is my personal favourite, and I would recommend it to all fans of The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Sugar Ray & The Bluetones, Omar & The Howlers, etc. - great guitar tone, fabulous harmonica, soulful singing, tight rhythm section. Unfortunately one of their members was killed in a fire, and I don't know if they still exist as a band.
