Alabama 3: new album, new tour, new danger!
mreed by Mark Reed September 25th, 2002
Everybodys favourite Brixton based Country And Western Acid House Techno Posse, ALABAMA 3, release their new album 'Power In The Blood' on October 21st as well as heading out on a UK tour.

Having come to prominence on the back of their signature tune (Sopranos theme 'Woke Up This Morning'), the band's third album features a raft of guest performers, including B.J.Cole who has played with The Verve and REM, as well Segs from punk legends The Ruts on bass, Keith Allen, Headrillaz and Lol Hammond. The album also marks the debut if occasional member The Banjo Of Love.

The album features 16 tracks - most of which have been played live and, to put it bluntly, rock like bastards with squelchy bleeps, pedal steel guitar, and great big dollops of sleazy, funky swagger.

Album tracklisting is:
Two Heads Are Better Than One,
Power In The Blood,
Reachin,
Woody Guthrie,
Year Zero,
Devil Went Down To Ibiza,
Strobe Life,
R.E.H.A.B,
The Moon Has Lost Its Sun,
Let The Caged Bird Sing,
Yellow Rose,
Bulletproof,
Badlands,
Lord Have Mercy,
Come On Home,
Don't Fly No Flag.

The tour starts on November 1st in Bristol and then goes onto Oxford Zodiac (2nd), Brighton Event (3rd), Portsmouth (4th), Southampton (5th), Norwich (7th), Middlesborough (8th), Leicester (10th), Cambridge (11th), Birmingham (12th), Stoke (13th), Leeds (15th),Sheffield (16th), Northampton (18th), Manchester (19th), Liverpool (20th), Belfast (22nd), Galway (23rd), Limerick (24th), Dublin (25th), Edinburgh (27th), Glasgow (28th), Aberdeen (29th) before two dates at the London Astoria on December 1st and 2nd.
