Albert Lee and Hogan's Heroes are one of the most exciting bands to see and hear you could hope for. They play a good mix of rock n roll and country (Americana).

Albert, (ex Chris Farlowe's Thunderbirds, Emmylou Harris's Hotband, Eric Clapton's band, Head Hands and Feet, The Everly Brothers band, The Crickets and still currently a member of Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings) has an excellent pedigree. He won a grammy in 2002 and has just been nominated for another one (result to be announced in February 2005), played at the Concert for George and is on the DVD of the concert, voted best guitarist 5 years running by Guitar Magazine. He also has a fine singing voice and is an accomplished pianist. His band, Hogan's Heroes, all have excellent pedigrees and are made up of Pete Wingfield on keys and vocals (he had a hit with Eighteen with a Bullet he was a member of Paul McCartney's for the rock n roll album Run, Devil Run and appeared at The Cavern when Paul returned there, this was widely televised), Brian Hodgson on bass guitar, Gerry Hogan on pedal steel and Pete Baron on drums.

I always though Albert Lee was a darkie.

I always though Albert Lee was a darkie.

That would be Albert King?


I thought for a long time he was Alvin Lee

He's one shot hot guitarist though- you may remember him from such hits as "aaahm Just a country boy, country boy at heaaaarrrrt"
