Bone Voyage Recording Company, 2013.

A trio of bearded man playing sparse, ultra-relaxed, hypnotic blues pieces, soft and to the bone, with traces (and for friends ) of: JJ.Cale (rocking chair), Suicide (past Future R’n’R), Canned Heat (falsetto), ZZ Top (beards), Neu (plingplongplucker), 22-Pistepirkko (hot finnish potatoes).

Talmud Beach have their very own, humorous approach, coming up with gentle minimal groove, which points to the past as well as to some future. You don’t need to be a blues fan to get this, although for some blues enthusiasts it might be a revelation, as well. Kuudes Aisti wrote recently: “People have been adding stupid shit to blues for ages. Like fringe jackets, cowboy boots and jackets with Joan Collins style shoulder pads – Talmud Beach don’t add a thing. Nothing extra.”
