Brothers N’ Blues – That’s Alright
{2005}

The brothers are:
Mark Sells: lead & rhythm guitar, lead vocals
Bill Leyva: bass, backing vocals
Mike Rincon: Hammond B3, Korg CX3
David Urguidi: Tenor Sax
Andy Mendoza: drums (4 & 5), backing vocals
Ron Villarreal: drums (1, 2 & 3)

This was originally intended as a three-song demo to showcase the addition of organ and sax. What we get is a five song EP CD, somewhere shy of a full release and greater than a demo. A nice, low-carb helping of the Brothers N’ Blues.

Songs 4 & 5 are both live versions, recorded at Calvary Chapel Montebello on 5/6/04.

The songs:

1. Calling My Lord – slow electric blues with a killer guitar solo, wow.

2. That’s Alright – a fast paced rockabilly tune reminiscent of the fifties, as an added bonus we get a Chuck Berry like guitar solo.

3. Don’t Understand It – vocals are a bit more powerful and well harmonized, the horn added a jazzy, swingin’ feel. The Hammond was very, very cool. There ain’t nothin’ like a Hammond.

4. Need Your Live – sax throughout and a distorted guitar solo that rocked.

5. I’m Lookin’ Up – primarily bass and drums, the vocals were rich and soulful, the backing vocals were a great touch.
