Blues guitar phenom Eric Gales was born and raised in Memphis, learning to play at age four from older brothers Eugene and Manuel in imitation of their upside-down, left-handed style (a tradition actually passed down from their grandfather, Dempsey Garrett, Sr., who was known to jam with the likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf). Winning his first blues contest at 11, four years later Eric signed to Elektra to issue his 1991 debut LP, recorded with Eugene on bass; Picture of a Thousand Faces followed in 1993.

His debut solo CD 'Man Of Steel' received critical acclaim. More... |

"Ben turned me on to the great country bluesmen like Charley Patton, Robert Johnson, Bukka White, and Leadbelly... to name a few," says Arvey. "When I first heard Leadbelly it seemed my whole life changed." Eventually Ben and Arvey formed a band that later became Bo Diddley's backing band. More... |
