Hearing, then seeing "Grace Potter and the Nocturnals" and another group called "Back Door Slam" inspired a new direction for this magazine. 

            Ooh La La

                                                  Treat me right video

When doing our rock and roll articles we will try to bring forth three types of musical offerings. We try to find three types of rockers. The pioneers, ie Elvis etc, the landmarks such as Eric Clapton. The third group is the legacy players. They have inherited the history and have chosen to continue the art form. That's where bands like the folks like Grace Potter and the Nocturnals and come into play.

Grace Potter in full power audience flirt mode !

We want to recognize the "Pioneers" and the "Landmarks". Additionally we hope to spread the word when we find a good new act who's keeping true to the hillbilly - blues roots.
This is about the real down home honky tonk, beer joint, juke joint rockn' and rolln'. 

                                       "tiny light"

If it doesn't boogee woogee, it won't be covered. Outside influences won't be ignored. 

         The Medley by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

Coming to mind is Carlos Santana and the Los Lonely Boys. Their latin influence added to the rock gumbo. 

Grace Potter in her Wanda Jackson shimmy outfit !


If by the time you've seen these first three videos you are not convinced how good this band is, just watch Mystery Train. 
                

The band is made of top notch musicians and that includes Grace on the Hammond B3. 

Whew!  It's a hot number.... Enjoy !

I first heard this group on blues radio. I came onto her music a little late. But what the heck better late than never.

Life's purpose is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, hair smoking, shouting "Holy Mackerel, ...what a ride!"
