'The Blues Got Soul' Music By Jean Shy & The Shy Guys That Will Touch Your Soul

Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ King Edward Records) - The Los Angeles based Label King Edward Records proudly announces their newest CD release by Jean Shy & The Shy Guys, entitled "The Blues Got Soul".

The CD is a compilation of some of the hottest Rhythm & Blues/Blues-Rock material recorded on Chicago born Singer, Songwriter, Producer, and Actress Jean Shy, and her German Band The Shy Guys.

This classic CD is a timeless work of art, which consists of original compositions, and covers performed in Jean Shy & The Shy Guys' own unique style, and was partially performed 'Live' at an Open Air Concert in Duisburg, Germany.

If you enjoy the music of Artist such as Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Tina Turner, Etta James, and Mahalia Jackson you'll love "The Blues Got Soul".

The Album includes Songs that many Fans identify Shy and her Shy Guys with, some of which have become their Trademark at live concerts for Years. I.e. the original composition 'One Day' talks about the search of Peace, Love & Understanding. Shy wrote it, after seeing many homeless people living in cardboard boxes, on Streets in downtown Los Angeles. The Ray Charles / Joe Cocker Classic 'Unchain My Heart' has been a much-requested Song at Jean Shy concerts over the years. Their rocking version of Muddy Waters' 'Rock Me', and last, but not least 'Amazing Grace', which is almost celebrated like a 'national anthem', has to be performed in every show.

Since the 'Concert' originally was not recorded to release as a CD, there were no Microphones set up in the Audience and therefore it is hardly audible. Jean Shy sacrificed any Studio editing on those songs, to keep the pure, and powerful thriving Live-Sound, which we think 'especially,' makes this CD of great quality.

Jean Shy & The Shy Guys have been performing to thousands of Fans at major Festivals, Concert Halls and Churches throughout Europe since the 1980's, and are still excited when Fans say: 'Keep Rockin' on."
