Notes: You can tell you're at a Gordon Smith show because everyone around you is smoking roll-ups. A few blues pubs linger in London and if you can be at one when he plays - you're in for one of the most exciting blues performances anywhere. Gordon Smith consistently pumps out straightforward blues interpreted from masters like Lightning Hopkins, Mississippi John Hurt, Lonnie Johnson, Blind Blake and Big Bill Broonzy. If you're a bit of a Blues purist and love the old guitar masters, Gordon Smith is something you don't want to miss. "Out of the Bottleneck" is well-produced and quite listenable. It's not just another bottleneck player going on too long - this is an album almost anyone can put on and enjoy from front to back - it's also some of the best blues guitar work around.
I've been mesmerised by Gordon's playing at venues like London's Station Tavern for about five years. He's hard to find gigging in London but if you're in the UK be sure to look in Time Out to see if Gordon Smith is playing anywhere.
As a guitar player myself I learn a little something each time I hear Gordon play. Attending one of his performances is, for me, comparable to the few times I have been lucky enough to see Les Paul in action at the Iridium in New York. He's that good.
Gordon Smith is the best white delta blues players alive. ~ By Bruce Morris

Notes: GORDON SMITH is the REAL DEAL.
Described by John Peel as " The foremost white Blues guitarist in the world ", Gordon is also one of the country's greatest Blues vocalists.
His 1968 debut album 'Long Overdue' was produced by Mike Vernon for the legendary Blue Horizon label, and featured members of Fleetwood Mac, including Peter Green. For years this album has been a collector's classic, but it is now it has been re-released by Mike Vernon along with other vintage Blue Horizon recordings.
During the 70's,Gordon was a member of 'The Kevin Coyne Band' with whom he recorded several albums for Virgin, as well as a couple of his own for the Italian label Appaloosa, and in the 90's a solo country Blues album 'Out of the Bottleneck'.
Gordon is now back with these re released recordings. He also has a brand-new recordings made for Note Records, on which he is accompanied by some of London's finest Blues musicians. These tracks reflect his passion for both country and electric traditions, and really are 'Essential' for all lovers of quality Blues.
Gordon Smith is one of the unsung heros of British Blues. A real treasure who should be nurtured.
His recordings have great merit and should not be missed by any serious Blues lover. ~ B. Powell
