intro
Theatrical debut album from French group Le Skeleton Band, whose music is a keen-to-please combination of blues and vaudeville
Where blues and vaudeville meet up in France, Le Skeleton Band cherishes the mystery of their whereabouts. 'Preacher Blues' features Berlin-styled cabaret yet it strives for acceptance within the Anglo-Saxon hemisphere of this world just the same. Le Skeleton Band appears way too eager to please all of the nations's audiences but the overwhelming majority vote will be in favour of them. The theatrical portrayal helps to build that image. 'Preacher Blues' combines the reluctance in finding peace and quiet with the complexity of urban yahoo.
