Album Notes

Recorded live at The Hell Blues Festival in Hell,Norway, this 10 song disc captures the essence of a smoking power trio playing incendiary blues rock to a wild Scandinavian blues audience.



The album features Colin John on Guitar and Vocals, Bill Troiani(Popa Chubby Band) on Bass and Texas Twister, Kenny Lance on Drums.



Here is a review of the album, from Scandinavian Blues News:

"Colin John and his Band really set the blues on fire; his playing is red-hot and his tone reminiscient of Jimi Hendrix and SRV.New York Bassist Bill Troiani and Drummer Kenny Lance lay down a rock solid rhythm, driving the music forward in a solid funky manner. Any fans of live Jimi, Gary Moore and SRV will love this disc." Per Olssen



"Ferociously entertaining funked up RnB"

Mojo Magazine, London



"Like Albert King channeling Steve Vai"

Live from Hell
author: Karen Lynn
I don't have this CD yet but can't wait to get a copy! Colin John is a wondeful blues performer - his verison of Stop It is a "must have" in your music collection if you love R&B. I would recommend any music performed by Colin John - you will not be disappointed. I hope you will include the music of Colin John in your collection of must have music! Colin captures the heart & soul of R&B with his own unique style. Once you listen to the Colin John's music you will want to hear MORE!

Red hot blues-rock guitar, great vibe
author: Ed Webber
I bought this album at a Colin John Band gig in Kona, Hawaii this past January when they were supporting John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers. This is a great live cd that represents what a smoking guitarist and his trio get up to when they are on fire.Really good solos, tight ensemble playing and great songs(original through Al Green and Jimi Hendrix!)If you liked Hendrix,"Band of Gypsys" or SRV,"Live Alive", you can add this to that list.Highly recommended!
