TG3 is Terry Gillespie • Wayne Stoute • Lyndell Montgomery • often accompanied by Peter Measroch on keys.
The lucky penny that keeps turning up in Terry's life is 'Groove Master'.
I don't think he ever quite believe it until today.
“Going back to the days of Ottawa’s criminally unheralded ‘Heaven’s Radio’ Terry Gillespie has been a soulful groove master. On ‘BLUESOUL’ his eclectic musical taste has honed in on a distinctive highbred body of intelligent material, resulting in his first, long awaited ‘all blues’ release. Terry says: ‘getting inside the groove is where it’s at’. Like Mark Knopfler, JJ Cale or JB Lenior, he is a player whose comfortable voice perfectly suits his economical deep guitar grooves. Nothing’s wasted and nothing’s missing. “ Holger Petersen, CBC’s Saturday Night Blues, CKUA’s Natch’l Blues and Stony Plain Records

"Today their music is a sweet tiramisu consisting of liquor-soaked layers of Blues, Reggae, Country, and Jazz." - Richard Ludmerer, Vice President, New York Blues and Jazz Society

BROTHER OF THE BLUES: BluesWax Rating: 9 out of 10
"Terry Gillespie is one of the most sincerely talented musicians in Canada. He's a bluesman to the core, but not in the traditional sense for he has range and influences that take it to a whole new level. His blues is the truth and it comes through with every word and melody he wraps his soulful voice around. This is real." -Sue Foley
BROTHER OF THE BLUES was on Saturday Night Blues charts for 5 months, Jan to May 2007.
