My Favorite Album

Hi guys Sam here just wanting to talk about and recommend my personal favorite album Marin Gaye's "I Want You" an awesome cool funky album with some of the best jazz elements incorporated for a mainstream album, some of my particular favorite tracks being "i Wanna be Where You Are" and the title track "I Want You" for being so damn funky with just an awesome vibe that said i love every song on the album and hope you give it a listen.

My Journey as A Muso

hi guys Sam here just talking about my journey as a musician and my recent en devours with guitars. i'm primarily a bassist but around six months ago i spent more money then i'd like to admit on a genuine american fender telecaster it's really been a great journey for me as a musician helping me understand my role as a bassist all the while reigniting my spark as a musician and really accelerating my theoretical knowledge.                        here's a quick pick of my guitar i found online

New Discovery's

Hi there guys Sam here Again just wanting to talk about a band I've started getting into recently.

Durand Jones & the Inclinations of all the modern soul bands i really feel they've manage to truly capture the feel and vibe of the sixty's with tracks "is it Any Wonder," with Smokey Robinson styled vocals and such a laid back feel with the instruments minimal but perfectly taking space within the mix, and other tracks like "Circle's," an excellent old school track with some modern effects tastefully put in.

Anyway that's my two-cents so i recommend you check them out

Sam's Blues Recommendation

hi there everybody it's Samuel Farhi with a recommendation for a certain blue's song that hold great cultural significance.


so the song today is Howlin Wolf's "Built For Comfort" a game changer with its heavy distortion and blues feel paving the way for much harder rock sounds especially in the 60's when the psychedelic scene begun. i found this song out by learning it was influential to one of my favorite bass players, Bootsy Collins a major influence in the funk scene. but that's a story for another day so i recommend you listen to it here's a link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgTjuDh7dVA

Welcome to B.B. & The Boys Blog

We are a 3 piece band including drums, guitar and bass that play various songs from the blues genre. We are currently practicing songs to play at future gigs and to hopefully please the audiences around the Sunshine Coast and Australia.

We will play music from artists such as Eric Clapton, Bill Withers, B.B King and many more.

Our practices include discussions that help us decide what songs we are able to play in the time frames that we have, who's gonna sing and play what instruments and how the song will flow structure wise. The other times we practice we dig down in the practical world and play our instruments practicing the songs we are learning.

we have 2 gigs coming up so far within the next few months that we are practicing towards playing to our best ability.
