Fill yours now!"Prescription For the Blues," A Mick/Mintz Project, is first fruit of the musical collision of guitarist Joe Mick and bassist Ari “Doc o’ Rock” Mintz. Within months of their introduction at the Gary Gand Pro Blues Jam, the pair began the studio work that grew to involve many of the fine players who attend the legendary Tuesday night sessions. On this CD, many soulful soloists - frequently Mick and the guitarist Gand himself, combine with fine vocalists and the tightly nuanced Mintz/Shaffer rhythm section, treating the listener to fifteen tracks of addictive blues, jazz, and/or rock that is sure to cure whatever ails!CREDITSStevieʼs New ShoesAri Mintz - music, bass and keysJoe McSheffrey - guitar (1st solo, 3rd solo)Bobby Wolf - guitar (5th solo)Gary Gand - guitar (2nd solo, 4th solo)Billy Shaffer - drumsYou Think You Got the BluesSteve Temkin - lyrics and vocalsAri Mintz - music and bassJoe McSheffrey - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsAmeliaAri Mintz - music and lyrics, bassRob Nasatir - arrangement, guitar, slide guitarJohn Manos - lap steelWang Dang Doodle Willie Dixon / Bug Music Obo Hoochie Coochie MusicMarilyn B - vocalsJudy Knight - keysGary Gand - guitar (1st solo)Joe McSheffrey - guitar (2nd solo) Billy Shaffer - drumsAri Mintz - bassThatʼs What She SaidAri Mintz - music, lyrics and bassJoe McSheffrey - vocals and guitarMarty MacMillan - slide guitarMickey Barendt - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsFinest Lovinʼ ManBonnie Raitt / Kokomo MusicJessie Fisher - vocalsJoe McSheffrey - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsAri Mintz - bassDeny, Deny, DenyJoe McSheffrey - music and guitarAri Mintz - lyrics and bassSteve Temkin vocalsBilly Shaffer - drumsBlake Wollerman - harmonicaScott Van Wagner - saxTomorrow Never KnowsJohn Lennon & Paul McCartney / EMI Blackwood MusicGary Gand - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsAri Mintz - bassGet In LineAri Mintz - music and lyrics, bassJoe McSheffrey - guitarMarilyn B - vocalsBilly Shaffer - drumsSouthside LovingAri Mintz - music and lyricsFrance Jean Baptiste - vocalsJoe McSheffrey - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsEbony 27Ari Mintz - music, bass, keysMichael Levin - lead saxScott Van Wagner - saxJohn McLellan - trumpetGary Gand - guitarLizzie Hammond - percussionBilly Shaffer - drumsIn Your GraceAri Mintz - music and lyricsJessie Fisher - vocalsPhil Palumbo - guitarBad DaddySteve Temkin - lyrics and vocalsAri Mintz - music and bassJoe McSheffrey - guitar (intro solo, 2nd solo)Bobby Wolf - guitar (1st solo)Gary Gand - guitar (tasty fills)Billy Shaffer - drumsLeave Go My BonesAri Mintz - music, lyrics and bassFrance Jean Baptiste - vocalsJoe McSheffrey - guitarBilly Shaffer - drumsBillyʼs ChiliAri Mintz - music and bassBilly Shaffer - drumsGary Gand - guitarJoan Gand - keysProduced by Joe McSheffrey and Ari MintzMixed by Brad McGrath at Brick City Sound, Chicago IL ,except:Thatʼs What She Said - mixed by Mickey BarendtLeave Go My Bones - mixed by Craig NeilAmelia - mixed by Ari MintzTomorrow Never Knows - mixed by Rob Ruccia, Uptown Recording Studio, ChicagoMastered by Rob Ruccia, Uptown Recording Studio, ChicagoSpecial thanks to Gary and Joan Gand for creating such fertile musical intercourse at “the jams.”
