The CD release party for local blues/rock trio Steve Keenan and Fat Baby Jake was a smash success, March 19 at Henotic.
A good sized crowd of at least 60 stayed seated and enjoyed a set of mostly original music from their new CD ‘Better than Gold.’
 The band, Steve Keenan, Geoff Stuckey and Shane Love were being filmed for their EPK, so they were in fine form , especially on the first set of originals. The classic rock sounding ‘Something New’  and ‘Whiskey Drinking Blues,’ were both highlights of the show. However Keenan showed he could sing slow blues pretty sweetly  as well. Though he shone the most on more uptempo numbers. He ended the first set with Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Voodoo Chile (Slight Return).
