Don Powell was the founder and drummer of the legendary British rock band Slade.
Until a few years ago he was still the anchor of the newest version of the band.
A band of working-class heroes, who during the 1970s almost reached the level of The
Beatles in the UK and Europe – today remembered for a number of evergreen songs such as
”Merry Xmas Everybody”, ”Cum on Feel the Noise”, ”My Oh My” and ”Far Far Away”.
Don has the Don Powell Band in UK and also recently played a gig with Ringo Starr near his
home in Denmark. Don, by some reviewers, has been called the greatest rock drummer in
the world. And it’s truely hard to imagine anyone more rock-steady.
But Don, now 75, was in need of something rooted more around his Danish home and in his
love of early rock & roll.
When Henrik Littauer popped up at Don’s house last summer they decided to put this new
band of senior Scandinavian rockstars together to play an updated version of rockabilly.
Honey Don’t was written by Carl Perkins and appeared on the B-Side of his 1956 release
”Blue Suede Shoes”. It was later covered by The Beatles.
So this then is ”Don & The Dreamers –”Honey Don’t”
The Dreamers are –
Henrik Littauer who has been around the professional Danish/Norwegian music scene since
the early 1970s, producing, filmscoring and playing with bands including Malurt.
Curly Erik (Krølle Erik in Danish) last year celebrated 50 years on the Danish music scene.
He is a gifted blues/rockabilly singer and guitar player with five solo albums behind him.
Helge Solberg, bass guitar and cousin of the former Norwegian prime minister has been
with a number of renowned bands and artists including Rocazino and played the bass on
over 50 albums.
Knud Møller was voted Denmarks best rock guitarist in 2008 and has worked with stars
such as Poul Krebs, Johnny Madsen, Esther Brohus and many more both as a musician and
and in some cases producer.
