Imperial Crowns




Imperial Crowns - Imperial Crowns - 2000 - Black Olive

The L.A band, The Imperial Crowns certainly have their own blues rock flavour, relying heavily on bursts of slide guitar and terrific blues harp bursts from Jimmie Wood.. The band play some great Southern Californian funk, often with a great "Little Feat" type Louisiana swamp flavour. You can also hear elements of Captain Beefheart, Iggy Pop, Blind Lemon Jefferson, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and Tony Joe White thrown in the mix. The Imperial Crowns play mostly original compositions full of colourful imagery, and brought to life by the original Hollywood kid, Jimmie Wood. Jimmie has stated that " We are The Imperial Crowns and we're pimping the blues." This s/t album has an unusual blues rock sound, touching at times on sixties psychedelic rock. Buy the band's great "Star Of The West" album, and check out the band's "Hymn Book" album @ IMPCRWNS/HMBK Check the BAND'S WEBSITE
