ANDY FAIRWEATHER LOW  – ” Invisible Bluesman “

Posted: February 2, 2025 in MUSIC

Andy Fairweather Low is truly the “Invisible Bluesman“. His career has to an extent been defined by early pop successes, but every single one of his performances has always been shaped by his blues, gospel and soul influences. It is ironic that although he first burst onto the scene in Britain in 1967 with a U.K. Top 20 hit record of “Gin House Blues” inspired by Bessie Smith’s 1928 recording — the many hits he has enjoyed since then from his days fronting Amen Corner have gradually hidden his undeniable credentials as a great bluesman. However, this extraordinary talent hasn’t escaped the notice of some of the world’s finest artists who have drawn on his deep blue skills as a guitarist and singer.

Andy has largely missed the recognition he deserves in the blues world and that is probably because up until now, he has never released a blues album. The album features material recorded since he left Eric Clapton’s band. The tracks have been chosen to highlight Andy’s unique voice and his mastery of the blues guitar.”
