Doc's Blues Revue

Old-school Chicago blues

Doc's Blues Revue  is Paul "Doc" Herling, on electric guitar and vocals, Rich Rittenhouse* on miss'ippi saxophone (aka harmonica) and vocals, Bill "Chickenwings" Smith on bass and vocals, and Marc Webb on percussion. We play the "old-school" blues of Muddy Waters, Slim Harpo, Jimmy Reed, Bo Diddley, Howlin' Wolf, and Walter Horton, and original blues in that classic tradition.

Ok, some of you have been asking if we have a CD...well, Bill Smith, our bass player, recently put out a CD "What Cha Say", which features Doc's Blues Revue on 3 of the songs. And the whole CD is great original blues, by none other than our own Bill Smith. Contact me, or come see us and we'll gladly send you home with a bit of us.

 What else can a blues fan put on the calendar? (Note that I'm playing only with Doc's Blues Revue and in an occasional duo with Bill currently; the other calendar items are for Very Special acts that I recommend, and will likely attend. See ya there!)
