Search - Stan Webb, Chicken Shack :: Strange Situations (Indigo Sessions)

Led by the Indefatigable Stan ?the Man? Webb, a Magnificent Guitarist and Showman Who?d Copped Many of his Best Licks from the Mighty Freddie King, Chicken Shack Emerged from the Midlands in 1967 and Proceeded to Carve Out a Big Reputation on a Then-vibrant UK Blues Scene. After Several Early Brushes with Commercial Success - They Even Managed a Couple of Crossover UK Chart Records in the Late 60s - Webb Kept the Show on the Road, Despite a Baffling Array of Personnel Changes which Saw a Different Line-up on Virtually Every Tour And/Or Album. Indeed, Shack Toured and Recorded Throughout the 70s and 80s at the Rate of an Album Every 18 Months Or So, and Carved Out a Particularly Strong Following in Europe. After an Uncharacteristic Quiet Period Stan Reemerged in the 90s with (Yet) Another New Line-up, and in 1995 He Signed Shack to the Specialist Indie Blues Label, Indigo, for Whom They Cut "Stan the Man Live".
