Russ Diapper - Kingsnake

Local musician Russ Diapper, who is quite well known in Southampton for his drumming skills in the band Gecko, has released a second solo album quite recently. Like his previous album it's the perfect album to stick on the radio in your car for a long drive on the open road or to put on the stereo when you've had a long hard day at work, his music has a very relaxed vibe about it and that's was what I liked about the album. Russ Diapper's unforgettable blues voice and the slick guitar riffs and solos made it sound like classic vintage rock such as Thin Lizzy and Hendrix. For example the song Rock and Blues was very 50s I thought; I do love artists that can bring vintage music back to the 21st century and pull it off so well like it is done on this album. If your thinking of having a relaxed time this Easter or perhaps summer holiday then this is the album for you.

Stand out tracks:  Trust Me, Rock and Blues and Son Of A Gun
