Ed Wool is an American blues/rock guitarist from Watertown, New York. According to the Watertown Daily Times, he has had several bands that have been very popular in the Northeast of the U.S., and Europe. Hailed by producers Mike Joyce, David Rosner, and Margo Guryan as a world class guitarist, singer, song writer and arranger, he has recorded on seven major record labels. In the 1980s he moved to Albany, New York and has continued writing, recording, and leading Ed Wool and The Bebaaa Blues Band. [Source]
The group’s biggest asset was Wool’s smokey-voiced sister, Claudia. The band sags when she tries to belt it out on covers of The Band’s “To Kingdom Come”, and Big Brother’s “Combination Of The Two” (Joplin, she ain’t!), but she shines on softer numbers like Chip Taylor’s “Any Way That You Want Me”, and brother Ed’s atmospheric “If They Left Us Alone Now”.
