David Gogo (Page 1 of 3)

Great stuff Jeff,where you ben hiding him?I never heard you mention him before

Dave Gogo has been around my players for years. Kinda took a back seat to all the new talent thats come our way. I'll get some Gogo packages ready.

We saw David at the Bayfront Blues Fest in Duluth last year. Enjoyed his set a lot! Besides being a great player he's got a pretty good sense of humor. Wish he toured more in the States.

A couple pics from last year:

BUMP     I am now addicted to his version of "It's a Man's World" (Thanks you Pittsburgh Jeff). I hate to admit it but I was given a free CD at Tampa two years ago and didn't pay enough attention. I will keep an eye out for him to tour nearby. It seems, for now, he's in Europe!  http://www.davidgogo.com/index.php     Cathy

Yep, he's still in my rotation Jeff....all your tunes are killer!

Hey Jeff...yes sir David Gogo is a great live act....he opened up for Johnny Winter-Rex theatre-Pit Pa. a few years back & he hooked me for sure.....his back up band is good too...! Maybe  He'll come back to Moon dog's?
p/s does he still have that foxy girl backup singer w/him?

Sorry I'm going to bump this again!

Having heard that David Gogo did a few low key shows in the UK a month ago, I started listening to more of his work, having only heard the VIBE album before. i have to say most of his work is of a very high standard. In particular I would mention the album Halfway To Memphis which is a superb disc of blues rock. It includes Cathy's fav A Man's World, the uptemp shuffle Soul Fever, a great slide song in I Should Have Lied and covers of Louisiana Blues and Night Time.  I've not heard Skeleton Key as yet, but I see it also has some good reviews.

The guys is head and shoulders above most blues rock from either side of the Atlantic and you can tell from both his guitar and vocal phrasing that he is a student of the masters of blues, which his own individual rocking style and very impressive song writing.

I find it hard to believe this man is not bigger, I assume it must be due to distribution issues with his record company as he really deserves to be better known.

If you do not have Gogo in your collection, please ask someone to put some in your Xmas stocking, you will not regret it!

David GoGo, I can definately recommend him to fellow blues fans. Caught him for the 4th time recently here in Hannover. First time out he was supporting Wishbone Ash in Hamburg and I was kinda dismissive that they needed a support act, but boy I was sure glad they did. He completely won the crowd over with the first song which is always impressive. He talks and chats with the audience and has a great sense of humour. That show put him on my radar and I caught him later on at the Blues Garage in Hanover. He is always ready to talk to fans and hang out after a performance. It can't be easy schleppin' across the globe building a career but he does it endlessly with great humour and charm. If he is coming to a town near you get out and support him, I guarantee it will be worth it!
