[This] crew is just about the best blues band in the Southeast. Their material shows a knowledge and understanding of the blues canon uncommon among musicians of recent years. Muddy Waters’ Forty Days and Forty Nights is treated not as a classic from 1956, but as an expression of desolation imbued with Biblical wrath. ~Nick Tosches, Rolling Stone #277, November 2nd, 1978.
In late December, 1972, Richard Green alit Amtrak’s Southern Crescent from NYC to Charlottesville, Va., bearing his life’s possessions—four records, a backpack and a Stratocaster—planning on a quick visit. Ten years later (neither he nor anyone else can remember exactly when), he decamped for Washington, DC, having increased his holdings to include a box of books, two boxes of records, a second guitar and a trash bag full of clothes.
In the intervening years, he formed, led and ultimately dissolved what arguably was the most influential central Virginia band of its period, the Charlottesville Allstars. The Allstars was the first local band to tour extensively, ultimately working 250 to 300 one-nighters per year. The band broke open major markets such as Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Atlanta for other local bands. Their sole album, “Tip Your Waitress,” was the only commercial LP released by any contemporary Charlottesville band. As many as 20 musicians passed through the Allstars lineup, including players who went on to notoriety in the Skip Castro Band and the Stoned Wheat Things.
Spurred by renewed interest in the 70s music scene inspired by the documentary film “Live . . . from the Hook,” the Allstars reunited in 2007 for a limited schedule of gigs. The current lineup represents the band’s definitive period, from 1976 to 1979. In addition to Green on guitar and vocals are virtuoso Doug Jay, harmonica and vocals; co-founder Steve Bliley, guitar; and the authoritative rhythm section of Paul Hammond, drums and vocals; and Steve Riggs, bass.
