Reviews

Bobtje Blues (on the debut album):
"Each and every songs is sure to get people on the dance floor at a 'connoisseur' Blues party. A fine example is the final track of the cd, the well-known Mustang Sally by Wilson Pickett. A crowd participation favourite, that is adequately covered by the band. It's obvious that the band are having fun as well. They give a tight performance. The liner notes also show the lads are up to it."

Bluescruisers (on the debut album):
"Beautiful and sophisticated production. This goes for the Music as well as for the design and presentation of the disc. 10 She's A 2, Never Hit The Same Place Twice, Mustang Sally are some of the songs to be found on this demo. All tracks come off well, and sometimes even comical. Judging by the quality of this cd, the band will certainly be able to pull off a live-gig on any stage."

De Brandpoort, Landgraaf NL:
"The band's premiere gig at The Brandpoort was booked in a very unexpected way. It turned out to be a great concert that showed much more spirit, passion and depth than might be expected when listening to their debut cd. The crowd was extremely pleased by the musical quality of the performance. This will certainly not be a one off occasion. Beale Street, thanks for the great show and the excellent co-operation!"

John Mullins Irish Pub, Maastricht NL (site quotes):
"St. Patrick's Day with the Beale Street band. Blues & Roll with a Scottish lead singer. No nonsense blues that swings and rolls. The perfect band for a Paddy"
"Beale Street band. Rock & Roll with a Scottish lead singer. No nonsense music that swing and rolls. The perfect band for new year's eve"

Bobtje Blues (assorted quotes on gig):
They managed to hit it off right away / This is a tight band / I heard great solos and a nice sound from lead guitarist Leon Stevelmans / great double-tracked vocals / the band members certainly know how to use their instruments / A band with a future

On the charity performance at the Venray Theatre for the New Orleans victims of Hurricane Katrina:
Meanwhile Beale Street were putting the pedal to the metal in the main auditorium. The band fronted by Scottish vocalist Brian Peters were in great form and seemed eager to also please hardcore Rory Gallagher fans. In the meantime the TV-crew had arrived, giving the band Worldwide ;-) exposure...

De Bel, Valkenswaard (site):
"A great night out with Beale Street. Party crowd"

Langs De Maas (press):
Spinners was Beale Street's main roost. We remember the boys from way back in 2005. And what a party it was, girls dancing on the pool table. Great atmosphere thanks to Brian Peters. The Scottish singer gave all he had to give. Brian, you're a carbon copy of Phil Collins, it's just that you're voice is slightly better. Well, I wonder what Brian thinks of this…
