With only three more weeks 'til
Labor Day and four more weeks to the famous Somers
Point "Good Old Days" festival at Kennedy Park, we are racing
through the dog days of August with three shows every week.
As expected, the concert on Kennedy Plaza in AC
last night, Wednesday, August 10 was an incredible display of
musical prowess and a charming evening with one of the most
successful recording artists in Motown records history, Peter
Rivera performing the music of Rare Earth with the Grammy award
winner Paul Nelson who simply scorched and shredded his way
through a blistering set of blues rock along with his great band
that included Mike Demeo, keyboard player from Tommy James and
the Shondells who will appear in Cape May later this month.
Jimi Hendrix fans must see the incredible Stanley
Jordan, one of the world's greatest guitarist, pay
tribute to Hendrix on August 17 before the party becomes funky
with the "Man who taught the blues to the Blues Brothers, Curtis
Salgado and his multi award winning band. Curtis has been the
Soul Blues Performer of the Year and has had the Best Soul Blues
Album of the year many times at the Memphis Hall of Fame
following his role as the consultant on the Blues Brothers
original movie in 1980!
On the radio show this Saturday, August 13, we
will interview the great Curtis Salgado and talk to him about
his early days with Roomful of Blues and his tenure with the
great Robert Cray before his fateful meeting with John Belushi
that led him to become the consultant on the Blues Brothers
movie and consequently "The man who taught the blues to the
Blues Brothers".
Ironically, Roomful of Blues, probably the
greatest big band in the last 50 years of New England's musical
history, will be appearing on the Somers Point Beach this
Friday, August 12, bringing the kind of jump, jive and swing
that takes us from the Bourbon Street's days of Louis Prima to
the greatest rockin' big band sounds of our times.
We will also continue our segment on hot new items
available at Circle Liquor Store including more than 120 Rose's
from around the world, incredible, premium wine values, the
latest seasonal microbrews and a huge selection of hard
seltzers, tequilas, exotic vodkas and over 200 bourbons
available at probably the best independent liquor store in the
world! Definitely the best in New Jersey! With the hospitality,
expertise and warmth of our friends at Circle Liquor, it is the
place to have a good time when you are getting ready to Let the
Good Times Roll!
