Sound clips by Jeff Powers & The Dead Guy Blues Band

................

Dead Guy Blues has been performing for 3 years. They started out as a tracking band for Jeff Powers. The songs are now recorded and will be released on Dutch Oven Records in October 2005. The CD features 13 blues originals penned by Jeff Powers and is a mix of modern blues with traditional blues rythms and themes. Dead Guy Blues has been performing the songs regularly to an enthusiastic response at their weekly Winchester jam night and all around Northern Ohio. Their style is unique and intense not only with their originals but also with covers like a delta fingerpicking version of the Hendrix classic "Voodoo Chile". DGB is Jeff Powers:Guitar/ Vocals, Chris Boross: Bass and Gus Oswald: Drums.

Ron Hatcher is a friend and student who let me borrow two of his amps that he built to record with. I got some great sounds out of his little tweed with Blue Dog speakers. Thanks for the help Ron! I'm going to ask Ron to build me a customized version...as soon as I have the cash! There is some great info on his website...stuff the big companies don't want you to know including the schematics for some of the great vintage amps that Ron builds for guitar players.

Jeff Wadsworth has been playing guitar for many years. His styles range from sixties rock to country, with some jazz thrown in along the way. Jeff was one of the founding members of "Showdown", a progressive country rock band, noted for their tight live sound. Their big claim to fame came when they were approached by the now deceased "Big Al Downing", a country star, well known in Nashville, who wanted Showdown to be his road band. "Big Al Downing" is best known for his hits Touch Me and Mr. Jones. The boys jumped at the chance to play with Big Al at some of the bigger venues and found it to be a very rewarding and eye opening experience. "Showdown" eventually broke up and since then, Jeff has been playing some local New England area gigs and focusing on his recording efforts. Jeff is now a golf instructor, as well as the owner of a successful golf club repair business and doesn't have as much time for the road as he once did. Says Jeff, “Working with Ron Hatcher over the phone and internet has been a music saving experience for me. I needed a way to stay motivated with my music and with these great amps that Ron built for me, I am more than happy just playing at home and working on my original material. It really makes a difference how creative you can be when you can get the sounds that you have been looking for out of your amp. I can’t thank Ron enough for making that possible.”

This is Ron's Latest amp. Its foundation is that of a 5F6A but the rest is quite trick. Pre-amp, Master Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass, Presence, and High Gain. A delicious sounding amp. Coming soon is a clip which is a bit on the edgy side.
