Lee, this is really a cool sound...love it.

Harmonica is crucial for bluesy blues! :)

I sometimes complain about your voice not blending well in tracks, but it's sitting and fitting here absolutely fantastic.

Conrad, you did a stellar job. Everything is so smooth here, yet clear and crispy.

Well I have been having a great week and I glad to get done and get out the latest collaborative original song done with my good old mucka of a friend Con who lives just down the road from me and from the band we was in together many moons back. "One More Shot At Sam's" is a swinging blues number that tells a typical fictional story of a night at Sam's Wine Bar, but however fictional the words maybe, I am sure to many of us they are very much reality.

I would like to thank Con for his excellent job on the music and it's a very enjoyable song that I perhaps could not wait to get out as I do very much like it and had great fun doing it with him.

The song has been made as a Free Digital Download @ Bandcamp from the link here: http://leelucas.bandcamp.com/track/one-more-shot-at-sams

One More Shot At Sam's (Music by Conrad Thomas - Words by Lee Lucas)

Lee Lucas - Vocals - Harmonica - Artwork.
Conrad Thomas - Guitars - Bass - Organ - Drum Programming.

The lyrics are as follows:

Down at Sam's wine bar late last night
drinking sam's whiskey at 1.99 a shot
sure tastes good, on the rocks sucking it through a tube
oh it sure hits the spot
and takes away those god damn blues

All of a sudden out breaks a fight
some out of town punk, been mouthing it off all night
he sure as, bitten off more than he can chew (oh yeah)
cause when sam's locals  get through with him
he's gonna be staring at the moon (come rain or shine)

Well in pops Jim and Harry, then in pops Stew
they sure can get rowdy when they've had a few
but the folks don't mind, especially when they'll buy you a drink or two
oh it sure hits the spot
down at sam's with the regular crew.

(Break)

Well it's the end of another night as sam rings the bell
it's one mad rush at the bar to get in all they've got
yeah it sure tastes good. especially when they come in two's
one more shot at sam's well get em barking at the moon.

Please find time to leave comments to which are always very well appreciated and many thanks for listening.

Lee Lucas & Conrad Thomas - One More Shot At Sam's

I very much started out playing instruments very late in life, and spent much of my earlier days listening to it, rather than playing it. I am very much a self taught musician and regard my instruments very much like implements, tools or devices to write with, rather than being anything remotely near a good playing musician of any great technique. 

I guess I really got into instruments more back in 1994 when I got into my first band (though I did learn to play the Harmonica when I was 8 years old) it was around this time I wrote a song on the Guitar entitled Oldtime Street. The song is very much even today one that contains some of the finest lyrics I have ever written, and very much perhaps inspired me to carry on.

Though the band back in 1994 was a very short affair, it was not long after I got into a R&B band performing Rock & Blues in various pubs around my own town Birmingham. I was very much the lead singer in this outfit which lasted some 6 years. Though during these years the band had gone through several line up and name changes and came to a stop in 2001. I suppose it was a bit of relief in a sense, because it's quite easy to put a band together, but murder to keep everyone happy, and keep it going.

Even though I only really did Vocals and played my Harmonica in the band, I still found time now and then, for my guitar, and my keyboards at home, and I also contributed in a big way to our own compositions in the band.

My tools are as follows:

Studiologic VMK-188 Plus 88 Key Midi Controller Keyboard.

Yamaha PSR E303 61 Key Keyboard (Used Via Midi)

Yamaha F310 Acoustic Guitar.

Yamaha ERG121 Electric Guitar.

Encore E4 Bass Guitar.

Various Harmonicas in many Keys.

Alesis Performance Pad Pro Drum Machine & Pads. 

Audio Technica AT2020 USB Microphone.

Vic Firth Drum Sticks.

Various VST Software for Keyboards, Guitars & Mixing.

Cubase 5.

Ableton Live 8.

Steinberg Wavelab.

Influences are from mainly 70's Prog/Rock/Blues/Traditional Folk/Electronic Music.
