Sweet James
Rarely do you hear a sound that blends as many diverse influences. There are strains of progressive rock, blues rock and pop/rock from the era of the Hit Parade but the full sound of Sweet James is so crisp it simply rocks your lights out. Check out the chorus of Better For The Crime to catch these players on all cylinders. Steve Clark of Vibrolux and The Premiums on guitar and Ben Huband of Benjamin on bass help bring Randy's songs to their full presence, along with a feature spot for Jerome Goodboo of The Phantoms on harp, Randy himself has been described as a monster, as Sweet James' songs explode from your speakers and stay in your head with the sonic majesty of the current cutting edge, and tunefulness that reminds you of the best songs from your youth.

Get on your best walkin' shoes my friend!
