Album Notes

El Toro Records is proud to present one of the best R&B bands coming from Sweden in the new century! Don't miss it!

Torbjörn "T-Bear" Solberg and Jan Lillsäter had been playing together in a Texas Shuffle trio for about 10years, when T-Bear came up with the idea of starting a band with a horn section.
The band was formed in spring 2004 and had their first gig just before Christmas the same year.

The following year the band continued doing gigs, writing some new songs and saving up money for a CD production.

In the mid summer 2006 T-Bear&the Dukes hired one of the Swedish Radios mobile studios and recorded "Let The Sweet Talk Flow" in a church-house outside of their hometown. Later that summer, parts of the band mixed the recording and sent it to Mastertone for mastering.

Thanks to Leo Castro, a legendary radio-voice in Barcelona and MySpace the band got in contact with Carlos Diaz of "El Toro Records" who was interested in releasing "Let The Sweet Talk Flow" on his label.

A promo version of the CD has been and still is played on several Blues Radio Shows in Spain, Finland, Australia, Belgium, Argentina, the Netherlands and Italy.
