East Blues Experience - Make It Better (2019) [CD Rip]

East Blues Experience was founded in early 1991 by singer, guitarist and songwriter Peter Schmidt, previously with Handarbeit, in Berlin. The band's founding line-up included bassist Rene Mosgraber and drummer Jürgen Schötz, who had previously played with Big Joe Stolle and Alexander Blume at Zenit and in the Intercity Blues Band. Shortly after the founding, Ronny Dehn switched to the drums and Jäcki Reznicek took over the bass (but not until much later, e.g. Peter Stojanov played before). Reznicek used to play in Veronika Fischer's backing band, with Pankow and with Silly. In the same year their debut album EBE was released on Mara Records and they accompanied Luther Allison and Louisiana Red on a tour of Germany.

In 1993, EBE signed Carey Bell as a guest on their “Good Understanding Tour”. The studio album “Good Understanding” with him was recorded in Prague. Further appearances with well-known
ands, such as Uriah Heep and Golden Earring, and their appearances in 1994 at the Djurs Bluesland Festival in Randers, 1997 at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt (Main) and 1998 at the 15th Dresden Blues Festival made the band known nationally and internationally.

At the beginning of 2000, EBE had brought a second guitarist into the band in the form of Axel Merseburger and the sound became increasingly rocky. Reznicek had since left the band and was replaced by Rainer Engelmann. In 2004 the band went on another successful tour through Germany and separated in spring 2005.
