Skończyło się granie w pierwotnym składzie tria – nie skończyła się działalność Knowlesa. Zmieniając towarzyszących mu muzyków oraz nazwę grupy na Davy Knowles&Back Door Slam, brytyjski artysta nagrał płytę zatytułowaną „Coming Up for Air”.
I only really listen to 60s & 70s music, but this is the best recent band. They're amazing, clear influence from Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac and some Ten Years After. Genius
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The gutiar sounds are really poor, not the licks, just the sounds. He needs to learn how to set the settings on his amps to get rich blues sounds. Joe Bonamassa has mastered (AMP SOUND SETTINGS). You can have good equipment, and if you don't know how to tweek the sound settings to make it sound good, then you are still spining your tires in the mud. The guitar playing here has that twang bob wire irritating sound. I sure wish someone would help him get the right settings on his amp.
What utter crap. He gets the tone he wants. He doesnt want to be Joe Bonamassa, Joe's already there !! Why would Davy Knowles want to sound like somebody else. His tone sounds perfect for the song.
He is using his pinky. I think you are looking too much at the standard box blues licks he is playing, as they usually do not require the use of a pinky for most of them. Where he needs to use his pinky,..he does..
k is this not actually their song? cause i cant find an actual recording anywhere. even when i look on their discographies this song isnt on any of them.
I live in the I.O.M and i remember like 4 years ago when he played at my dads 50th birthday in the farm shed! :D :D :D Jamie was still in the band them (and ross) it was sweet! Ive been to every one of their lil gigs in the I.O.M since.
I just saw him in Santa Fe and he rocked my world! Some of the best guitar playing i have ever seen. He's a super nice guy too we got to talk to him and the band a little afterwards! So bad ass!
Does anyone know if this song by the original BDS is on an audio recording (high quality)? I love watching this video over and over but would also like to have it in audio. One of the best things they ever did, IMO. Somewhere SRV is smiling.....
"To clear up any confusion, this is not the end of the road for any of us...whilst Adam & Ross are pursuing their own music careers outside this band, I can confirm I will be continuing as Davy Knowles & Back Door Slam. I am currently writing and preparing songs for the follow up to Roll Away, and I will be touring later in the year to support its release. Can't wait for that, & I look forward to seeing you out there on the road! More news soon, Cheers, Davy :) "
I can't believe it!!! I just saw them a few months ago at the Berbatti's Pan here in Portland. They were just getting their shit tight!! Motherfucker, I am really pissed right now.
dude, I've seen Back Door Slam twice in concert and they just keep getting better. The 2nd time I saw them they opened for Gov't Mule and on their last song Warren came out and rocked a 12 min version of What in the World and the look on Warrens face said it all, Davy can play with the best of em.
Davy Knowles works his strat better than anyone since Hendrix. Back Door Slam is great because they play what the like and not what the record companies want them to.
How can you say this guy isnt EXTREMELY talented?He plays with Jimis feel,Claptons subtlty and Stevie Rays brute force and soul,I mean look at that mean ass tremolo picking he's doing at 3:36.And as far as originality,how many blues guitaists use volume swells like than,and also can shred the neck on that wah solo so cleanly?Plus his voice sounds like Post cream clapton,and that tone is all his,I though John Mayer was the bluesman of the 2000's,but Davy is just plain scary great.
Davy Knowles is the latest new talent the Blues guitar scene has seen in a few years besides Derek Trucks...Give this guy some slack...its the blues, its not gonna be original by any means. He just has soul and I'm proud of what hes bringing to the music scene.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
boring. he solo's like he is 13. but he is talented. this is bullshit though...predictable, and unoriginal. this song has been written millions of times.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
so? cover or not. still boring...and you have no clue what i listen to. so why say something like that? only someone with a baseball reference in their name would do that.
HAHA!!! I agree about the baseball reference. I disagree about Knowles though. I think compared to most blues rock guys out there he's by far the most original.
Um, I don't mean the song. I mean the playing. He doesn't just use like Stevie licks all day, he always adds some creative, little more B.B. King reminiscent licks. He has more originality and style than all of the other blues-rock (Stevie-clone) guys out there.
WOW! these guys are deffiniatly one of the best bands ive ever heard. they just put so much soul into it. this is just absoultly amazing and inspiring.
They are definately very very good, might be a stretch to say, best of the century so far! they have a great sound and solid songwriting. but you need to branch out if you think everything coming out these days sucks, Gov't Mule, Widespread Panic, Mofro, just to name 3 that are killing it these days.
i'm convinced these guys are the best band of the 21st century so far. they shine like a diamond among all the shitty "rock" music put out these days. i hope these dudes become huge and bring back true rock and roll.
I saw these kids in New Orleans with Lynard Skynard on Aug 8. Never heard of them. When they came out I saw three teenage kids and thought how cute. By the time they were done I was blown away and screaming for more. Memories of Stevie Ray, Eric, Jimi. These "kids" are awesome. Just starting. Stay tuned.
this reminds me of a very young clapton, like during his cream days. He will probably follow the same trend and merge into more rock oriented stuff as he get older, but i love hearing things like this because it shows what there is in this bands future.
RE: If you're gonna say that, then clapton, hendrix, and all those guys didn't bring anything new to the table than blues through an electric guitar...
Wrong. Those guys did other things besides blues. But I'm not really even into their blues either. It's probably why I loved their contemporaries like DEEP PURPLE and YES more, they hardly did the blues.
I find it one of the most un-imaginative things in music...but that's just me.
Robert Johnson may have been a "youngster," but that was REAL blues. This band sounds like they've studied all the masters, but have nothing new to bring to the table. Sorry, but decade after decade it gets more and more watered down.
Still, if you enjoy this and it makes you happy...right on.
If you're gonna say that, then clapton, hendrix, and all those guys didn't bring anything new to the table than blues through an electric guitar. If your a purist than listen to country blues. I love lightnin hopkins, elmore james, robert johnson etc. but i also love electric blues. Don't limit what you can take away from blues greats of the past and blues greats now. these cats can play
I have to agree with olhole. They are truly amazing but their sound is very reminiscent of the greats. Nothing really new or fresh here but man can they play the traditional stuff!
i really wish i knew what kind of strat he's working with there. Maybe a deluxe players edition? this is the best tine he has of the videos i have seen.
Hey there , Its an SRV strat , but the tone is coming from the amp mainly - its a different amp to any of the other videos he has on here. hope this helps - Colli x
I just saw these guys @ nightfalls in chattanooga and they were ridiculous. Its just a shame that these guys and other talented groups get no air play while talentless pricks reap in the dough.
I agree, I totally sent BDS a message on their myspace page telling them to stear clear of women, drugs, alcohol and planes...lol............told him straught up...........blues is in your hands! DONT fuck it up.........dont drowned in your own vomit and dont fly.........
Great young players, but little Robert Cray influence (I figure their name comes from a great RCB tune). They're in the vein of Hendrix/SRV, like many other bands. I've yet to hear anyone new on the scene using Cray's approach: the R&B influences, songs that reach for new territory, letting the song breathe with the monster fretmanship often taking a back seat.. JMayer has been partway there, but still quite far. If I'm wrong, send me a link.
I have a 16 year old guitarist son and a budding 14 year old bassist son and the Back Door Slam cd gets equal play with their collection of Cream,SRV,Rory Gallager,Peter Green,Hendrix,Free,Led Zeppelin,Johnny Winter, etc and for good reason-Back Door Slam belongs in the company of young players and classic greats. We have to inspire our "up and comers" so they too can one day influence others to widen their horizons to include a style of music that should never be relegated to the backseat.
Amazing. Renews my faith in the younger generation's music. Let the lemmings watch American Idol - I'll watch these guys - the true spirit of Rock Music.
THis is the first video that SherifG1 sent me and it's a killer!!! Excellent stuff here makes me want to get my 'SRV' cd's out for a play!!! 5 Stars is the limit they gave me...darn!!!!!!
I saw these guys on Jimi Kimmell two nights ago. Couldn't wait to hear more. What a talent! God luck to them. Going to look up a tour schedule and will see them soon...I hope.
Killer!!! I fuckin love these guys...
Great lick by the way, good call.

Thank you for posting. It is truly amazing how far these guys have come in the past year but pure talent and hard work will do that.

Amazing. Renews my faith in the younger generation's music. Let the lemmings watch American Idol - I'll watch these guys - the true spirit of Rock Music.
