About Mick Clarke

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My band Killing Floor toured with Texas blues star Freddie King and played dates with Howlin' Wolf, Otis Spann and Arthur 'Big Boy' Crudup among others. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Mick Clarke, Crazy with the Blues Mick Clarke, Relentless Boogie - The Album Mick Clarke, The Blues, Man, Rides Again! I've chosen three of my own albums - I actually do enjoy listening to my own stuff - after all I try to record what I want to hear. Other than that I listen to absolutely everybody - some favourites would include Tedeschi Trucks and Billy Gibbons. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “House of Cards” I like this track - it's funky and original (as far as I know).. just flows along. From the album 'Telegram' which was No. 1 on the Roots Music Report UK album airplay for 6 weeks. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing Sweden Rock Festival in 2018 directly opposite Iron Maiden on the other stage. We won. (smile). Well we had a few hundred people in our audience to their 30,000. We met up the next day and they were very nice. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? A huge international hit album would be nice as I have bills to pay. And I still haven't played the Albert Hall. Apart from that, peace and love to all mankind would do fine.
