This Blues band is a "musician's band". You can bet there'll be several prominent local musicians in the audience wherever they perform. It's no fluke that musical people love the band. It's all about payin' dues and performing with exacting craft. And it's no wonder that several "A" List musicians are guesting on the album including such icons as Sherm (trombone, flute), Dave (harmonica), Mark (horns), and Jory (guitar).
This band is a throwback to a long ago time when music was…well… more musical. A time when hearing a live band was sheer delight. The energy of the music drove our passions. It was like taking a kernel of corn at room temperature, adding salt and butter, and heating it up. Bob and his assorted minstrels do just that. They heat up a divine musical stew that incorporates seemingly diverse influences such as jazz, blues, gospel, and rock. And behold a seamless musical archetype that puts a smile on your lips and a spring in your step. It makes you wanna get up and move.

Detroit Blues Band Lyrics

A beautiful dream.
I want to hold you
In the dark
It would seem
That no one sees me like you do
No one moves the way you move
And I can't see anything else
Honestly, you're killing me.
And we're drinking
Cheap champagne alone in my room
Drinking
Your name, you wear my favorite perfume
Cheap champagne
The flowers in bloom
Drinking your name
Champagne.
Champagne
If I was stronger
I would take down the moon
We could hang it up
In the corner of your bedroom
And if at night you could not sleep
You could watch it shine
Like counting sheep
And only I'll know where the moon has gone.
I want to take you now.
Honestly, your killing me.
We're drinking
Cheap champagne alone in my room
Drinking
Your name, you wear my favorite perfume
Cheap champagne
The flowers in bloom
Drinking your name
Champagne.
Sitting on the floor of a spinning room
The morning sun won't be coming too soon
It's the way you look in that dress
There's nothing I can taste that compares to you
And nothing I can say that's quite as true
As the gift you are. I confess...
That I... I...
I want to dream you
A beautiful dream.
I want to hold you
In the dark
It would seem
That no one sees me like you do
No one moves the way you move
And I can't see anything else
Champagne with you in my room
Drinking
Your name, you wear my favorite perfume
Cheap champagne
The flowers in bloom
Drinking your name
Champagne.
Cheap champagne with you in my room
Drinking
Your name, you wear my favorite perfume
Champagne
The flowers in bloom
Drinking your name
Champagne.
