"The twelve new yet authentic sounding blues songs in 'What's for Pudding' are inspired by the variety of styles within the blues genre, as are the lyrics, with their quirky humour that is peculiar to Voo. From a tongue-in-cheek lament to the harm caused by booze... featuring a real belch... to the disappointment of space being just far too big for man to colonise... let alone imagine... the songs in 'Pudding' are nothing if not original."

"This is my 1959 Hofner President,Sure is bluesey.

Mr loud, ex-Edison Lighthouse drummer, engineered my album 'What's for Pudding'. He has a fine ear.

I played all the instruments on 'what's for pudding', except for drums.

25 years, I've been playing guitar and bass.I know all three chords.

I like ZZ Top."

Who is Mr Voo? MR VOO was born in England in 1964, Voo taught himself piano at the age of 3. After watching over a hundred episodes of Dr WHO in the late sixties, he was made to go to school where he learned about sedimentary deposition and igneous intrusion. At 14 he immediately learned bass and guitar by ear and joined the punk band 'Pointybirds' playing scorching bass. He later played with 'Wholehog', 'Hotknife' and 'John Wayne's Saddlebags'. He's currently recording a sequel to 'What's for pudding' - a solid 'blues in dub' CD called 'This Side of the Moon' - a cunning blend of blues and heavy dub sounds. Currently living in the ancient Roman city of Exeter in the south of England - but in the 21st century....He enjoys cooking curry and collecting wild fungi. He also enjoys reading the scientific literature and doing oil painting. Mr Voo until recently had waist length hair in a pony tail and a goaty beard, but to avoid resembling Hollywood bad guys with long hair and goaty beards, he decided to remove them. Mr Voo went to see ZZ Top twice in 2002. He has attended 6 ZZ TOP gigs so far, rating them most highly, quoting their "....rigorous, highly cultured and thoroughly professional approach to songwriting and performance," and at the Birmingham UK gig left a copy of 'What's for pudding' with Mr Billy F. Gibbons. A CD single of 'Vodou Han'- on 'What's for Pudding' - was also left in the hands of Mr Robert Plant of ex-Led Zep fame for his listening pleasure, during his UK 'Dreamland' tour. The gig was also attended by Mr Voo's former next door neighbour, Mr Ian Roberts of Nightporters fame. Mr Voo isn't signed up to any Record label and is currently distributing his album by randomly tossing them from a moving train into people's back yards.

'ALCOHOL'

"Red wine, white wine, your bouquet is so sweet,

red wine, white wine, your bouquet is so sweet.

But every time I have you, I fall down on the street."

"Coctail, coctail, I don't mind it shaken or stirred,

cocktail, cocktail, I don't mind it shaken or stirred.

But every time I have you, I end up speakin slurred."
