(heavy for history, cuz there's more behind us than in front)

The Sandspurs had their day, playing Southern roots rock 'n' blues and an occasional white-knuckle country number (some of Tim's purebred American mongrel music).  Over the years these bandmates opened for the likes of Jimmy Thackery and the Drivers, Magic Slim, Anson Funderburgh and the Rockets, Scott Holt, Big Mike Griffin, the Nighthawks, Commander Cody, Joe Louis Walker, and the Amazing Rhythm Aces.  The Sandspurs were based in Birmingham, Alabama.

"Just think of good ole Southern blues-fueled boogie with a little grit and soul ...the original material serve as our favorites...these guys really smoke!!"  

Music City Blues Society Bluesletter, January 2005, Nashville

 "combines all the excitement of a live CD with almost studio quality sound balance...Tim's guitar intro on "Blues for Monica" is superb....also does a great job on the harp...get out and see this local band."  

Magic City Blues News, January 2005, Birmingham

    "the Sandspurs...can go make up sauce...then put to stir up sacrament with very good pieces of a good rockin' powerful blues"

One local translation of a review by Luc Brunot from Radio Blues Intense in Paris

"...you know all the tales we tell, you know the band so well and still I feel

somehow...we let you down.

We went off somewhere along the way

...but what the hell, I can't erase

that rock and roll feeling

from my mind"
