Follow on Google News | ![]() Singer Linda Imperial Releases Blast From The Past "Breakfast of Blues" Featuring Stellar LineupThe veteran singer revisits this smoky, driving blues track from her 2006 album release "Destination You" on her own Myriad Class Records.
"I wanted to write a blues song, but I didn't know what would come out." reflected Imperial. "I use my experiences as a means to convey my emotions. This song was inspired by an experience with a well-known, ruthless character in our music world. So, with the help of Steve Valverde, my bass player in two of my bands, we wrote "Breakfast of Blues". At its core, "Breakfast of Blues" is about people I knew, who had absolutely no honor. I hear melodies in my head, verses, hooks, and choruses, then try to put my anger, love, fear, or whatever to music." The driving, energy-charged track produced by Linda with her husband and legendary member of Jefferson Starship and Quicksilver Messenger Service David Freiberg features a stellar selection of Bay Area musicians including Roy Rogers (John Lee Hooker, Bonnie Raitt) on guitar, Prairie Prince (The Tubes, Todd Rundgren) on drums, and Bobby Vega (Paul Butterfield, Joe Satriani) on bass. Linda Imperial's dizzying list of credits includes working for and with the Big Mama Thornton's rhythm section, Jazz supergroup New York Jazz Explosion, Sylvester, The Weather Girls, Jefferson Starship and Gary Duncan's Quicksilver Messenger Service. Linda appears on 42 album compilations and has 32 credits of major recordings. She has 20 releases of her own and stayed on the Billboard Charts for over 3 decades.
