Tommy Lepson And The Lazy Boys - Best Of is a specially priced 2CD best of Washington’s finest organist/songwriter/guitarist/engineer and bandleader.

Tommy Lepson has toured with EVERYONE. He and The Lazy Boys have graced stages with The Kinks, Captain Beafheart, Fabulous Thunderbirds, Chuck Berry, The Spinners, The Righteous Brothers, Root Boy Slim, Nils Lofgren, Night Hawks, Danny Gatton, Bonnie Bramlett, Johnny Neel and many more.

He has also played at the White House three times and has been honored with Washington’s prestigious Wammie.

Since 1991, the Tommy Lepson Band (formerly the Lazy Boys) have been performing and recording originals, Blues and Soul Classics and new versions of obscure R&B gems. With three CDs to date (Live & Durty, Ready For This?, and A.M. 53) the band has built a reputation for great vocals (Tom alone has won 11 Wammies), awesome instrumental chops, and arrangements that combine American roots music styles with Latin Percussion.

Members of the band have appeared live with Bruce Springsteen, Joe Walsh (Eagles), Jeff Skunk Baxter (Steely Dan, Doobie Bros), and shared the stage with the Neville Brothers, Jeff Beck, John Hiatt, Willie Colon, and countless others.

An evening with the Tommy Lepson Band, whether live or on disc, is a musical journey that will rock you, move you with emotion, tickle your funny bone and make you get up and shake your tailfeather. So what you get to listen to here on these two discs is a voice that Little Feat’s Shawn Murphy called ... one of the best.

In short, Tommy is the best blues singer and Hammond organ player DC has ever had. The album AM 53 is full of beautifully honed songs in the tradition of what I call DC R&B. As all cities have their style of music, this is what DC has always been about. And this incredible double disc album set highlights all that and more.
