Steel Strings & Bruised Reed | ||
|
Steel Strings & Bruised Reed - New Release. 2009 This is the long awaited acoustic album from Keith Thompson. A raw and passionate collection of songs showcasing the singer/songwriter in Keith. As the title suggests strength and weakness, the songs tackle subjects as diverse as lost love, the Mississipi floods, moral choices and political correctness. Also featuring some great slide guitar from Keith and some mean saxophone from Patsy Gamble.

Out Of The Smoke | ||
|
The great solid guitar work is dominant, the rhythm section is working perfectly and some guests add the special spices to a production, which will place Keith Thompson finally and without doubt on the top level of the british blues-rock-guitar-players. With a lot of power, energy and creativity, added with matching songlyrics and from time to time a hard ground beat, which always leaves enough space for the virtuosity of the master. This music is timeless ~ and Keith Thompson also plays it "live" as good and full of energy!

Face Up | ||
|
Face Up An album of guitar instrumentals. It just had to be done. This could be classed as "mood" music as an aside to the Roots, Rock and Roadhouse that Keith tends to stick to today. Originally brought out on an indie lable but confined to back catalogue collectors piece. Now made available as a dowload only.
|
Available as a download only on: Bandcamp |
Against The Odds | ||
|
Against The Odds An album of gospel rock. This may be a surprise to some but this album was brought out in 1987 when Keith was playing predominantly hard rock with an extremely thought provoking gospel edge. Some very strong songs on this along with some youthful, energetic guitar playing. Interesting to see where Keith has come from. Download only. 1989 |

The British blues boom of the 60's produced great guitarists like Eric Clapton, John Mayall, Jimmy Page and Peter Green. It was in 1966 that the young Eric Clapton joined forces with Jack Bruce on bass and Ginger Baker on drums and formed "Cream". They helped to revolutionize the world of music!. They lit the touch paper and as the flame grew brighter many more greats came along, Rory Gallagher, Ritchie Blackmore, Gary Moore and Paul kossoff to name a few. They produced music that had such a feeling of expression that it was impossible to ignore! You don’t have to take history lessons to get the feeling again! It’s all on the CD's Keith Thompson & his band have recorded – From “Strange Brew” to "Snapshot Of Reality". An amazing collection of self-penned classic blues/rock tunes in the same progressive style of these greats! The Keith Thompson band take you on a journey through time. You will find yourself recalling that feeling that the power of "Cream" generated, and it will take you all the way to the present day. After listening to Keith Thompson and the band you will be left with the impression that the music is still alive! |
