Bushmaster – Revolution Rhapsody aka Uprising Music (bushmasterblues.com)
Bushmaster is a dynamic, eclectic band that seamlessly melds old-school blues with a tasty array of influences culled from every subgenre that has followed since the blues begat rock ‘n’ roll in the form of Chuck Berry and his compatriots in the 1950s. The band hails from the capital of the United States of America – Washington, D.C. – and is led by tour de force guitarist Gary D. Brown, who also wrote all the music and lyrics, and provides lead vocals for most of the 16 tracks here. Co-conspirators in Bushmaster include vocalists Rob Thorworth [Gravy, The Rob Thorworth Trio], Kelly Bell [Kelly...
Review from Navajo Slim (aka: Greg Hasty) of Revolution Rhapsody

Thanks go out to Navajo Slim (aka: Greg Hasty) not only for his in depth, honest, and insightful review of "Revolution Rhapsody aka: Uprising Music", but also for going the extra mile and sending it to me personally even after the publication he works for, Lit Magazine, closed last month.
Thanks dude! The world needs more people like you! :-)
(side note from Bushmaster - Greg received the music electronically and did not have the benefit of the liner notes or credits to refer to when writing this review - thanks to all the talented musicians who worked on this disc with me, know that when this reviewer (or any other) mentions one of your parts and/or performance, that I direct the credit to that mention to you - thank you for your work :-) ... therefore the only edit I have made to Navajo Slim's review is...Rock Over America reviews Revolution Rhapsody

_______________ Cool letter I received from Dixiefrog

HI GARY,
I’VE LISTENED TO ALL THE SONGS. I REALLY LIKE YOUR WORK, IT’S HIGH QUALITY STUFF. SURE, QUITE JIMI ORIENTED, BUT JIMI IS A GOOD MASTER…!
TWO OR THREE YEARS AGO I WOULD HAVE SAY : YES, LET’S TRY TO DO SOMETHING. BUT TODAY, EVERYTHING IS SO TOUGH… NOBODY BUYS CDS NO MORE, MUSIC IS SUPPOSED TO BE FREE, PIRACY IS THE RULE AND IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO TRY TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT CONCERTS.
NOW, WE’RE ONLY TWO AT DIXIEFROG (I WAS OBLIGED TO FIRE THREE PERSONS DURING THE LAST THREE YEARS) AND I’M OBLIGED TO BE MORE THAN PRUDENT BEFORE TO COLLABORATE WITH A NEW ARTIST.
SO, I HAVE ONE QUESTION : WOULD YOU HAVE ANY CONTACT WITH BOOKING AGENTS IN EUROPE OR ANY CONTACTS TO TOUR, HERE ? WITHOUT REGULAR EUROPEAN TOURS NOTHING IS POSSIBLE.
