MIKE WHELLANS

Fired Up And Ready

****

Temple Records COND2101, £11.99
Borders multi-instrumentalist Whellans has a long pedigree (he was a duo with Aly Bain in the early days), but his first love has always been blues and he remains Britain's foremost 'one-man' blues band. Live, he simultaneously handles guitar, drums, brilliant harmonica and vocals to generate astonishing driving rhythm. Here he cuts studio tracks by John Lee Hooker, Sleepy John Estes and Rory Gallagher among his own songs, and there are a couple of live recordings. An uplifting album by a Scottish master.
