Backsliders - You Three (Live at the Basement / 2003)

‘Backsliders Live at the Basement’ features a selection of songs from Backsliders most recent album at the time, ’Hanoi’ (2002 Rhythms Magazine Readers Poll Blues Album of the Year and finalist at the Australian Record Industry Awards) as well as a mix of favourites from their extensive catalogue.

“We built the Basement studios in order to capture for all time, some of the extraordinary performance on the legendary Basement stage that had previously just disappeared into the ether. This particular Backsliders gig is a fluent justification of our investment and a testament to “Backslider brilliance!” You’ve go the authentic “delta” sound of Dom Turner’s dazzling guitar work, the rock hard backbone of Rob Hirst’s drumming, “the patron saint of the blues harp” Jim Conway’s amazing harmonica gymnastics, and Dom and Rob’s wonderful vocal blend. Their harmonies are so organic they sound like siblings. ‘Backsliders Live at the Basement’ is an instant classic. This is the best acoustic blues band in the country, everyone at Chief Entertainment is thrilled to be involved in the creation of this wonderful DVD. Turn it up loud and enjoy!” - Doug Mulray (Executive Director)
