MUNGO JERRY BLUESBAND - OPEN UP - DVD

Just dropped on my doormat is a brand new MUNGO JERRY BLUESBAND DVD entitled 'OPEN UP'. Released by Easyplay, it is one of the best Mungo offerings for some time and was recorded live by Ray and the Bluesband in 2002 at an open-air festival in Vlotho, and also at the Downtown Blues Club in Hamburg.

In the shop now priced at £14 + P & P. Tracks are; |
MUNGO ON GMTV
|
PETER SULLIVAN at Satellite has contacted me to say, "News for the site is that we've managed to get Ray on GMTV, the morning of 30th June where he will be performing 'IN THE SUMMERTIME', we were able to get this because the next day he will be presented with an award for longevity at the PRS Lunch in London."
Several things are still in the pipeline but not finalised yet so I will if neccessary update the page if word comes in before the next scheduled news in August regarding the new fan club/Easyplay CD's - 'IMPALA SAGA'/'LOVIN'IN THE ALLEYS'/'RAY DORSET & MUNGO JERRY'/'LIVE IN BULGARIA' - and the mp3 download site. Derek hopes to have some new items ready for sale in time for the Hollywood gigs, so if you are planning to attend, the proposed interview CD-rom 'should-fingers crossed' be on sale. |
