DAVE FIELDS
Electrifying Blues Rock & beyond soul combustion.
Dave Fields latest CD ALL IN electrified the RMR Top 50 Blues Rock Charts by staying in the top 5 for 32 weeks straight. ALL INfeatures 11 songs: 9 originals and a funky ‘live’ version of Led Zep’s “BLACK DOG” and a burning rendition of the timeless classic “CROSSROAD”. ALL INbeing recorded mostly live in the studio, features many of the same musicians on Dave’s first three CD’s TIME’S A WASTIN’, ALL WOUND UP&DETONATION: Andy Huenerberg (bass), Kenny Soule (drums), Vladimir Barsky (keys), Dave Moore (drums) and some new comers: Tony Tino (bass) and special guest BMA nominee Dave Keyes (piano). As it is with all Dave Fields CD’s, there are many different flavors of Dave featured on this CD. The rockin’-fatalistic “Changes In My Life” starts off the CD with a scintillating guitar solo that zooms off into the clouds. Dave blazes away next on the spooky-rock VOODOO EYES which will take you to a place where classic rock legends dwell. “Let’s Go Downtown” will get you “boogie-in” your seat while the surreal-lamenting “Dragon Fly” drifts through layers of realities. This CD winds down a road that will take you to your limit and drop you in a place that will make you say, “Oh Yeah!”

I always felt that one of my missions in life was to be able to communicate with people and to listen to them. It’s one of the beautiful things about being a human being. We all want to connect with one another”. Nowhere is that feeling more evident than in Dave’s music. His gift of making his guitar talk combined with his uncan
