ALEXIS KORNER'S BLUES INCORPORATED

  Alexis Korner, Herbie Goins, Dick Heckstall-Smith, 

Danny Thompson, Ron Edgeworth, Barry Howten. etc.

An inspirational figure in British R&B music, responsible for bringing together 

many British blues legends and furthering the genre. Without Alexis Korner, 

there still might have been a British blues scene in the early 1960s, 

but chances are that it would have been very different from the one that spawned 

the Rolling Stones, nurtured the early talents of Eric Clapton, 

and made it possible for figures such as John Mayall to reach an audience

One of Alexis Korner's better and more obscure albums, Red Hot From Alex, features the 1964 version of Blues Incorporated, 

supported by alumnus Dick Heckstall-Smith on tenor sax on a handful of tracks, recreating their live sound in the studio. 

The results are reasonably successful, the group at times achieving a fairly intense, 

swinging ensemble sound that, at its best, carries an infectious level of excitement...(AllMusic)
