Wizz Jones: Keith Richards - 2Seas Sessions

We had the great pleasure of Wizz Jones & Simeon Jones over to the studio to do a live acoustic session for us at 2Seas Sessions. Talk about a legend, we are so happy to have Mr Wizz in for a session. Bruce Springsteen has covered his songs and Eric Clapton, Rod Stewart and Keith Richards have all cited Wizz as a great influence.

This is the third track: Young Fashioned Ways - Soon to be followed up with: Burma Star, Night Ferry, Nathaniel, When I Leave Berlin, Cannot Keep From Crying Sometimes, Ready For The Times To Get Better.

Wizz began his musical career at the age of 18 leading a Country and Skiffle band called “The Wranglers” in his home town of Croydon, Surrey in 1957. He had been inspired to take up the acoustic guitar a year or so before this after hearing such guitar luminaries as Big Bill Broonzy, Rambling Jack Elliot and Muddy Waters playing at a club in London organised by Cyril Davies and Alexis Korner (The Roundhouse in Wardour Street).

Having learned most of his blues licks from Long John Baldry and Davy Graham whilst playing in the coffee bars of Soho, Wizz followed the time honoured trail – busking throughout Europe with many different musicians including at one time a budding young blues-man named Rod Stewart.
