The Fluffy Jackets feature Manny Charlton (Nazareth), Neil Murray (Whitesnake), Rob Hall (Jerry Lee Lewisâ Killer Band), and founder Helge Rognstad . Fighting Demons was recorded in parts at the historic 1950âs Sun Studio in Memphis TN, where Helge Rognstad was joined by classic rock legends Manny Charlton (Nazareth), Neil Murray (Whitesnake) and Robert Hall (Jerry Lee Lewis).
Further sessions would take place in London UK at the Cowshed Studio. This line-up would again feature bass player Neil Murray, plus renowned harmonica player West Weston, in addition to Fluffy Jackets regulars Jerry Bessent and Nick Rhodes. Emil Gammeltoft from the Swedish band SKoR also feature as a special guest on two tracks. Though rooted in blues/rock, the album includes elements borrowed from acoustic singer/songwriter- genres, and even folk music. The majority of the album is new original material, including a brand new song penned by Manny Charlton called âCanât Stop the Rainâ. The Fluffy Jackets also pay tribute to blues standards âVigilante Manâ (Guthrie) and âMean ol Friscoâ (Crudrup), the latter song featuring a fine duet with harmonica player West Weston.
