2008 Release:
We're Jammin...

Now available at Little Cisco performances!

It's so absolutely great to hear such good music anywhere, especially emanating from Green Bay, which, in the '70's, definitely had the seedlings (from certain talented people, including Randy) of good rocking to come, if that talent was nurtured. Randy nurtured his talent, and now we can reap the rewards of that. Author: Linda Leather

Nearly two decades strong this Green Bay blues trio is right on, and this CD culls the best tracks from their five lps
(including many live faves). Play it again and again, and play it LOUD while we wait for the soon to be issued new CD.
Okay, what makesthese guys so unique? Not repetitious sloppy blues. Inspired by Jimi and Stevie Ray, yes,
but they never fall prey to sloppy chords of mindless boogey fretting. Randy's guitars and Ginny's bass are fresh
and layered freshly across the musicscape--whistle clean and inspiring from the get go! I also find it highly original
that many of the vocals have a retro psychedelic flavor. For those of you who remember Fleetwood Mac's classic blues
LP THEN PLAY ON and the song "Oh Well" you'll get the idea. Sound is fresh and Ginny Lee may be most
unheralded bassist in the land. Combination of covers and impressive original comps. Even if the Packers
never beat the Cowboys. LITTLE CISCO does the blues proud - Texas style!!!

2006 release:
HAVE MERCY

Little Cisco has been writing and performing original songs for over 20 years!
Have Mercy is another all original album of Little Cisco, released at the beginning of 2006, and has great sounding original rockin' blues tunes. Out of the 10 songs on Have Mercy, only 2 were ever recorded before. The songs "Baby I want You" and "Through with Me", were recorded many years ago and then recorded again for Have Mercy.

A live performance of the Little Cisco original song "BABY I WANT YOU"., track 7 of Have Mercy, was performed in the film "LOOK AT ME AMERICA" (since then, renamed: Gang Justice)

The song: Baby I Want You, was performed for a live audience of about 700 people, during filming of a scene of the movie,
in which the school dance includes live music by: Little Cisco!

2005

IN THE DOG HOUSE

"is just one heck of a heart pounding, high energy mix of straight ahead rock n' blues."

"As a guitar lover, I quickly fell in love with In the Dog House. Randy Siscoe belts out incendiary riffs on his stratocaster that are in the same class with the other blues masters past and present. Whether setting the tone with an authoritative string of notes as on "That old Blues", or pointing the way with his ass kicking axe-work on the rocking "Red Light", or smoothly sliding catchy chords for the pulsating title track, Siscoe is an absolute delight to listen to, and luckily the music is steeped in his fantastic solos.

Dog Man-1999
A HOWLIN' Good Time!!!
Guitarist extraordinaire Randy Siscoe
fronts the three piece Little Cisco, bassist
Ginny Lee and her undeniable thump,
along with the skinning of Dean Tassone or
Dan Bush make up this rockin' blues combo
Their brand of blues is hard chargin', yet often contemplative
and sincere with softer responses and rhythms.

Siscoe has written all of the tunes on this one,and the tunes reflect a classic rock and Texas blues styled guitar. His vocal character is a soft tenor that continues to define itself. These blues are movin' examples of what they do up north to stay warm...you find the joint where Little Cisco is playin'.

JUST BOOGIE
1996

Uppity-jump blues is what the title track, "Just Boogie" is all about. It has a supersonic tempo with drivin' old rock rhythms. Its speedy take off may leave you with a bit of whiplash; hold on 'cause the ride's not over.
"It's Not My Fault" has rockin', tenacious vocals and hot-fretted axe grinding. Lee's pounding bass lines gives "Just A Start" a heavy rhythm line as Little Cisco enlivens the tune with a splendid, solid guitar work down.
Watch out for "I'm So Low"; it's a thumper by any standard the heavy, grindin' Ginny Lee bass is complemented by Siscoe's sanitized guitar licks! Haunting vocal work by Little Cisco dignifies "Don't Run & Hide"; as, the hot drumming by Panosh pushes its edge. "Fast Car" is the cooker ... it's got lightnin' slide guitar ... the bass gauge spinning ... and drums beating at the speed of sound. Don't get run over!

Catch the funky bass and enlightened guitar sequences of "It's So Easy" and "Get It Together". Sunquist's skin work on "I'll Get By" backbeats a beautiful arrangement with effective bass lines and exquisite guitar phrasing ... a great, well-balanced composition. "Easy Way Out" closes the disc with more proactive rock/blue posturing. A great close to a wonderful listen ... this is a hard rockin' interpretation of boogie blues!

Little Cisco and The Lone Star Blues Band are unyielding musicians seemingly ready to stand their ground. Don't get flattened by this steamroller ... 'cause this is flat-out, no holds barred, ass-kicking, rockin' boogies blues. Put on your helmet on before you pop this biscuit in the oven. Hey, now you know something else that Green Bay is famous for!
