Are you blind With Audio 54

Are You Blind


The EP of “Are You Blind” was a similar project to “Pastoral” which was recorded with Craig Marshall of Audio 54. I played this on My Strat which is a Fender Stratocaster 1954 body with a 58 neck which is great as this pre-CBS model has Gibson Fretting so it sounds more gritty. It’s a great allrounder as before I had played in the reggae group “10 Feet Tall” who was a Soulband who also played reggae based in Leicester back in the 80’s. In “Are You Blind” I used my reggae playing style that I developed when playing in the group. I think that time in the soul music scene in Leicester they were quite popular here is a picture of myself and them they have helped a lot in my playing the style and integrating it into other styles of music I play. When Craig Marshall asked me to play Guitar on the Track I decided to use my crybaby to play lead in the song with a little reverb to make a little more impact among the brassy sound of reggae.
