The Revelators - The Adventures Of The Amazing Revelators (2000)

The Revelators story started in the late 80′s when Joe Camilleri, along with friends James Black and Joe Creighton, took to the stage as ‘The Delta Revelators’. Their desire was to blow out the serious days’ work with people who shared the same interest in music and who simply wanted to play it. On stage with Pete Luscombe on drums (Black Sorrows, Paul Kelly, Rebecca’s Empire) and Jeff Burstin on guitar (Black Sorrows, Vika and Linda) the word spread that this was a great band. ’Amazing Stories’ was released in 1991 and everyone in the band agreed it was the best album they had ever made. The fans felt the same and the CD is still eagerly sought after by roots music aficionados. Inspired by Joe’s encyclopaedic knowledge of good music, songs from artists like the Burrito Bros., Jr Walker and Dylan were respectfully resurrected, reinterpreted and re-released.
