BLUE BLOKES 3 (Ben Mandelson, Ian Anderson and Lu Edmunds)
The BB3 have an album, interestingly titled "Blue Blokes Three - Stubble" (Fledg'ling). It's said that " the Blue Blokes 3 came together one dark and rainy night in the spring of 2007 to pay tribute to English folk sweetheart Shirley Collins on the occasion of a celebratory evening to mark her receipt of the MBE from another queen. Their wonky take on old time nomadicised English country blues and death folk seemed to appeal and one thing led to another - within days the Fledgling A&R office were inviting them to make an album." The album is rather good. Read David Kidman's review
