DAVE DAVIES – SINGLE REVIEW

Dave Davies – Same Old Blues (Red River
Dave Davies - Same Old Blues
Entertainment/BFD)

Release Date: Out Now

It’s always slightly unsettling when you get new music to review from an artist who was writing generation defining songs before you were even born but I’m always glad when it is new music and not just remastered material. That said, this new track from founding member of the Kinks Dave Davies was written in the 70s but just never saw the light of day…until now. ‘Same Old Blues’ has a deft touch on the blues chords and a sense of the Clapton’s about but the chord progression also hints at the kind of stuff Deep Purple took to a heavier place. Davies’ voice is perfect for the genre and at a little over three minutes this comes in at a perfect length to hook you in to new album ‘Decade’ due out in October. Some things are well worth waiting for.
