Shakedown Tim and his Rhythm Revue: Shakedown's Th'owdown (album review)

On this wonderful album, excellent musicianship doesn’t get in the way of a good time.Here, Boom, Belgium, based singer and guitarist Tim Ielegems takes some original ideas and applies them to the sounds of traditional blues. This twelve-song adventure of mostly lelegems' originals was produced by none other than James Harman. He blows harp on three of the album's twelve tracks and even contributes an original song to the proceedings, Icepick’s Shakedown Th’owdown. Gene Taylor plays piano on six tracks on this brand-new Rhythm Bomb Records release. Along with the terrific guitar playing of Ielegems, the tenor and baritone sax of Bart Stone adds a wonderful sonic dynamic to this album. Shakedown’s Th’owdown is a potent cocktail of vintage cool.

In 2019 Tim started with a new killer line up: Piano player/ singer Ilias Scotch, Jack o Roonie on Upright bass & Koen Van Pethegem on drums... this band matches the old skool 40's tube amp guitar sounds and expressive vocals of Tim... Come and check out these fine gentlemenzzzzz!
