{"title":"Bryan Lee","description":"\u003cp\u003eDuring the ’80 and ‘90, the only blues band visitors to New Orleans would hear was Bryan Lee’s Jump Street Five Band at the Old Absinthe House on Bourbon Street. Blues veteran Bryan Lee, blind since childhood, became a true New Orleans blues institution and kept on delivering his own fiery brand of bluespower long after the Old Absinthe House was gone. This was a gig that went a long way to establish New Orleans as a blues town despite the fact that Lee’s style never really departed from his mid-west demeanor, making him the most Chicago-sounding band on the strip.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBorn in 1943 on March 16, Two Rivers, Wisconsin, Lee lost his eyesight at the age of eight. His avid interest in early rock and blues was fostered through the 1950s with late night listening sessions via the Nashville-based radio station WLAC-AM, where he first encountered the sounds of the three Kings, Elmore James, T-Bone Walker and other influential bluesmen. By his late teens, he was playing rhythm guitar in a regional band called The Glaciers that covered Elvis Presley, Little Richard and Chuck Berry material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough the ‘60s, Lee’s interest turned to Chicago blues and he soon found himself gigging in blues clubs throughout the Midwest. In January of 1982 (in the midst of a particularly cold Wisconsin winter), Lee relocated to New Orleans and for the next 14 years held down a steady gig playing five nights a week at the Old Absinthe House in the heart of the French Quarter. He subsequently went to the Opera House and 544 Club and remains one of the most crowd-pleasing acts on Bourbon Street to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLee debuted on Justin Time in 1991 with The Blues Is and has since released a string of powerful outings on the label, including 1993’s Memphis Bound, 1995’s Braille Blues Daddy, 1997’s Live at the Old Absinthe House Bar Friday and Saturday Night, Crawfish Lady and more!

For the next 14 years, Lee and his Jump Street Five played five nights a week at that popular bar on Bourbon Street, developing a huge following and a solid reputation as a real-deal bluesman. He remains a featured attraction in New Orleans, where he continues to rock the house wherever he plays. He's been a regular at the Festival International de Jazz de Montreal (FIJM) since signing with the Montreal-based label in the early 1990s, and also performs regularly throughout Europe and North America. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOver a career filled with adoring and ever-growing audiences, and after many acclaimed recordings supported by some of the best players in the business, My Lady Don't Love My Lady shows that Bryan Lee continues to deliver some of the most honest, heartfelt and soulful music you'll hear on today's blues scene.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bryan Lee","offers":[{"title":"Digital Download","offer_id":39477704261792,"sku":"0068944023752","price":9.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":39490913796256,"sku":"","price":15.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0537\/8477\/2768\/products\/27e34a14-362c-4219-892b-495d63998cc616418976551832456058-LARGE_5bbe3d16-37f4-4139-83bb-ffd46e9785c7.jpg?v=1615827856"},{"product_id":"six-string-therapy-2","title":"Six String Therapy","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is a \"labour of love,\" to quote Mr. Lee, and with the juggernaut of Duke Robillard and band to back him, Lee is the perfect conduit for New Orleans grooves.

(Beautician Blues), as well as T-Bone's Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You as a closer, make this one a keeper.

Backed by his good rockin', hard shufflin' band, the blind guitarist cranks on his exuberant theme song \"Braille Blues Daddy,\" Albert King's \"Crosscut Saw\" and Elmore James' \"The Sky Is Crying.\" Harmonica legend James Cotton joins him on rousing renditions of \"Ain't Doin' Too Bad\" and \"Five Long Years,\" then Lee goes toe-to-toe with guest guitarists Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Frank Marino. Now, Shepherd I understand. The promising young bluesman holds his own in the company of Lee's own version of bluespower on the Freddie King vehicle \"Going Down.\" But Frank Marino? Former leader of Canadian heavy metal band Mahogany Rush? Strange choice, that. Sure, the guy flies up and down the neck of his guitar like lightning on \"Look On Yonder's Wall\" and freewheeling jams with Bryan and Kenny Wayne on \"Key To The Highway\" and \"Rock Me Baby,\" but sheer speed does not a bluesman make. Lee, a burner in his own right, is more indelibly tied to the real deal, as he eloquently demonstrates on his fifth recording as a leader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" abp=\"1119\"\u003e-Bill Milkowski\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bryan Lee","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":39730944311456,"sku":"068944010011","price":36.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0537\/8477\/2768\/products\/5ebaf9e4-0123-44d0-adbc-068515c84ef014658143929343073357-LARGE_382fb652-c3e6-4d7b-a50f-3406f59ab0d7.jpg?v=1618322748"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0537\/8477\/2768\/collections\/picArtist130.jpg?v=1615924377","url":"https:\/\/justin-time-records.myshopify.com\/collections\/bryan-lee.oembed","provider":"Justin Time Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
