    SWEET SONGS FOR THE DYING
    Seit Jahrzehnten schätzen echte Kenner Ron Spielman für sein virtuoses Gitarrenspiel und exzellentes Songwriting. Mit seinen Handlangern Uwe Breunig, Joh Weisgerber (beide "The Ruffcats") und Werner Goldbach hat er sich nun in schlechte Gesellschaft begeben.

    »Spielman In Bad Company« – zu unserem Glück! Denn in den düstersten Gassen der morbiden Musikindustrie kochen die vier Landeier ein würziges Süppchen Musik: Die Seele des Blues hat die Apokalypse offensichtlich überlebt und erstrahlt in voller Reife, gespickt mit krachigen Versatzstücken aus der Welt der Elektronik und des Hiphop und allem, was auf dem Weg dorthin so alles aufgesammelt wurde.

    Skurril und voller Respekt vor den alten Meistern des Genres hat das Quartett eine Neudefinition dieser traditionsreichen Musik geschaffen. Denn mit ihrer ganzen, ledrig gegerbten Lebenserfahrung greifen sie sich den Blues und hämmern ihm in ungezählten Jam-Sessions gemeinsam einen völlig neuen, so noch nicht gehörten urbanen Pulsschlag ein. Unverstellt, zupackend – lasst es uns Neo-Blues nennen.

    SWEET SONGS FOR THE DYING
    Ron Spielman has been highly regarded for decades by those in the know for his guitar playing and excellent songwriting. With his new sidekicks Uwe Breunig and Joh Weisgerber (both of "The Ruffcats") and Werner Goldbach he's brought himself into bad company.

    »Spielman In Bad Company« fortunately for us! Because in the bleak alleys of the morbid music industry the four country boys cook up a mean stew of music: The soul of the blues apparently survived the apocalypse and shines here in full splendor, spiced with noisy elements from the worlds of electronic and hip hop and everything else picked up along the way.

    Quirky and full of respect for the old masters of the genre, the quartet has redefined this tradition-steeped music. Because with all the hard-earned life-experience they've accumulated they hammer a completely new pulse into the blues in countless jams. Undisguised, gripping — let's call it neo-blues.

lyrics

Well Sunday, Sunday in the
morning / I was wasting time
out in the sun / so I went on
down to hear the preacher /
tell me all the things I had
done wrong
He said only cash, will
buy me my ticket / for a seat
on that heavenly train / so I
went o out to the suburbs /
and robbed the grocery
store once again
There is money to be
made with good reefer /
there is money to be made
with moonshine / there is
cash to be made with religion
/ money I will make for
Jesus Christ
There is money to be
made out in China / there is
money to be made in Shanghai
/ there is cash to be
made with religion / and I’ll
give it to Lord Jesus when I
die
Wasted supper / how
much she must hate me /
she burnt it black just out
of spite / ‘cos I refused to
buy her shoes / now she’s
nitpicking and complaining /
how I’ve learned to hate my
wife / she’s incapable of understanding
/ my new religious
life
There is money to be
made with good reefer /
there is money to be made
with moonshine / there is
cash to be made with religion
/ money I will make for
Jesus Christ
