Corky Siegel's Chamber Blues

Blues? Classical? Well, it's an inventive blend of both on the third album from Siegel-Schwall Band blues harmonica/ piano man Corky Siegel's hybrid group, his namesake Traveling Chamber Blues Show. (It also consists of four classical string players and a tabla/percussionist.) The live outing is as playful

as it is technically complex, with the strings complementing and supplementing Siegel's dynamic blues harp. Of special note are two vocal songs: the lovelorn "Manhattan Island" and "Train," a jagged Chicago jailhouse blues written and performed by beloved Siegel-Schwall bassist Rollo Radford.—JB
