Richard Wilkins - Life's For Living
Portland, Oregon blues singer/songwriter, bass guitar/ tenor sax player Richard Wilkins is accompanied here on drums by Jimi Bott [Fabulous Thunderbirds, Mannish Boys] and Kevin Selfe on guitar [Vizztone label]. The self produced CD titled “Life's for Livin” is an epic journey through four stunning originals, and covers of Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon, Rod Piazza, Tab Benoit, and Eric Clapton.
It’s been 3 years since Richard's last CD “What a Life” was released with Jimi and Kevin on board with that project as well. “Life's for Livin’” features top Portland keyboardist Steve Kerin on piano and organ. Since the late1960s, Wilkins has shared stages big and small with everyone from Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, John Bonham, Jeff Beck, Buddy Miles, James Cotton, Lightning Hopkins, Boz Skaggs, Johnny Winter, Mathew Fisher, and many more. This CD is a tribute to his roots growing up in LA listening to the blues like Howlin’ Wolf, Jimmy Reed, and Rolling Stones. The title track “Life's for Livin’” is a testament to the love and joy of playing music all these years.
