Torrent description
Little Axe is Skip McDonald (gtr) Doug Wimbish (bss) Keith Le Blanc (dms)
quote from www.skysaw.org/onu/artists/littleaxeskipmcdonald.html
In 2002, after several years of on-and-off work and convoluted attempts to gain major label backing, Skip's third Little Axe album "Hard Grind" (ON-U CD 1001) became the first release for four years on Sherwood's revived and re-launched On-U Sound label with a mixture of raw blues and reggae, and guest appearances by Ghetto Priest and Bim Sherman. The album takes pleasurable, unexpected twists and turns as it takes the listener on a haunting and spiritual journey of blues history with a mystical and lingering blend of synthetic and organic instrumentation.
The recording commences with a read of Blind Willie Johnson’s "Dark As The Night Cold Is the Ground", where the legendary blues pioneer speaks of the blues. On "All Night Party", the late Junior Kimbrough’s voice is mixed with absent friends, preachers and black historians with harmonica fills provided by Alan Glen. While "Hard Grind" will no doubt will also draw comparisons to Moby's "Play", it was Skip who pioneered the fusion of blues and Electronic music with Little Axe. Moreover, he understands the blues as he has actually played it.

I have good memories of the two gigs I saw from Little Axe in France.
