Al Olds, Jo Lincoln & Brian Harley
I first met Al, Jo & Brian back in the late 1990's at the Southern Blues Bar.
Bazz O'Shea, who ran the kitchen at the Blues Bar for 15 years kindly loaned me this
photo and many others from the era. This prompted me to update and republish an article called
NZ's Longest Running Blues Venue.
If you are visiting New Zealand and fancy a night of New Zealand Rhythm & Blues why not visit the venues listed on our New Zealand Blues Scene page and with an ounce of luck you might also catch one of the featured New Zealand Blues artists.
