 CANOE -- JAM! Music - Pop Encyclopedia - James, Colin
Virgin Records in the US came calling in 1987 and his eponymous first album was released in 1988.
Exposure to rock and roll in his early years was limited for blues guitarist Colin James, living as he did with parents that favoured bluegrass and folk music.
For the second album, James went to Tennessee to finish up with ZZ Top producer Joe Hardy the bed tracks recorded in Vancouver.

 James, Colin
James' emergence paralleled that of the Toronto singer and guitarist Jeff Healey, with whom he shares a love of blues-based music.
His debut album, Colin James (Virgin VL-3044) followed in 1988 and included the hits the hits 'Voodoo Thing,' 'Five Long Years,' and 'Why'd You Lie?' Tours followed in Canada and, as an opening act for Steve Winwood and Keith Richards, in the USA.
Encouraged by the Texan Stevie Ray Vaughan, with whom he toured in the USA as early as 1985, James organized his own band in 1986.

 Colin James, Fuse
James, who plays lead and rhythm guitar, cowrote most of the songs on the record with Craig Northey, who also contributes rhythm guitar and harmony vocals.
Throughout the recording, James showcases his versatility as a songwriter and guitarist -- he plays fast and slow, loud and soft, happy and sad, and he pulls together all of his influences into a well-balanced record.
Never one to hide behind anything, James' clean and crisp vocals, lyrics and guitar playing expose him in "Mystery to Me." It's good to see that that part of his music hasn't changed.

 Colin James Music
His first "jump blues" album, Colin James & the Little Big Band, was certified double platinum in Canada and foreshadowed the big band craze of the late '90's by five years.
Colin has performed with such noted musicians as mentor Stevie Ray Vaughan and Keith Richards and the likes of Mavis Staples, Lenny Kravitz, and Bonnie Raitt have made guest appearances on his records.
It was a real find for Colin, as he had always wanted to record a John Lennon song.

 Soul Shine Magazine : Colin James Set to Travel Canada
James has been on the road since he was a teenager, which accounts for the title he chose for his eighth full-length album.
James went on to release his self-titled solo debut in 1988, which turned out to be the fastest selling album in this country’s history, picking up a slew of Juno Awards along the way.
One of the things James is rather fond of is touring his native Canada, which is just what he plans to do for a few months next year.

 Hour.ca - Music - George Thorogood and Colin James
As for Colin James he has been a wonderful musician that has already put out the hit tunes that everyone enjoys listening too.
James has been busy on several fronts and expects to do a Little Big Band 3 project as well as writing new original material for a follow-up to his ninth album, Traveler.
Colin James and George Thorogood & The Destroyers is a dignified bill that Montreal will love to see live.

 hip online: artists: colin james
In 1993, Colin James did the unthinkable, he followed-up two hugely successful rock records with an album of obscure "jump blues" for a project he dubbed "The Little Big Band" When news of the move hit the streets it was met with a certain amount of skepticism.
With the release of Colin James and The Little Big Band II, Colin revisits the era, bringing the music of Cab Calloway, Jimmy Wilson and Calvin Bowes to a whole new generation.
The name Colin James entered the collective consciousness in 1988 with the release of his self-titled debut on Virgin Records.
http://www.hiponline.com/artist/music/j/james_colin

  
 Colin James
The result was Colin's 1988 self-titled smash hit debut album on Virgin Records that was, at the time, the fasted selling record in Canadian music history.
Record companies also began to take notice of James whose talents were a perfect match for the renewed interest in roots-based music that was occurring at the time.
Vaughan was so impressed with the young guitar firebrand that he invited Colin to tour with him.

 Amazon.com: Music: National Steel [IMPORT]
Colin's musical exploration from album to album would make a natural double bill with another chameleon Canadian act Blue Rodeo.
Together, both Colins' guitar playing is excellent and their vocals harmonize and blend well.
I was finally able to catch Colin in concert in Moncton NB in the fall of 99.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000006X75?v=glance

  
 REVIEW
James' voice has the right soft rasp for the material, and his guitar playing is solid but not showy, (think B.B.King and Robert Cray).
The result is a record that sounds fresh, not dated, which, of course, is the point of all this.
If he weren't sincere, this would be a dance party recording; instead, slices of blues pain like "You Know My Love" are prominently included.

 RollingStone.com: Sudden Stop : Colin James : Review
James pays homage to Vaughan on the galvanic "Cross My Heart," mines pop-gospel roots for "If You Lean on Me" and closes the set with the title track, a moving Hendrix tribute.
The record wastes no time in establishing priorities – the first thing you hear is James playing an acoustic delta-blues passage, then breaking into squalling electric-guitar lines on the fiery "Just Came Back."
His first album was a classic example of how compromising destroys personality.

 Colin James' ticket to giving
James will head back into the studio in the early part of the new year to record a followup to 2000's Fuse.
The Calgary concert is also the one that's being taped for future airing on CMT and CBC.
He's already done some songwriting with former Junkhouse frontman Tom Wilson and he's started leafing through his record collection in order to unearth some songs to cover.

 Tower Records - Colin James And The Little Big Band II * - Colin James
Ever since Canadian blues guitarist Colin James released his first swing album a month before the first Brian Setzer Orchestra release, it has been the former Stray Cat--and not James--who has been credited with being the first to bring swing back to the masses.
JazzTimes (10/99, pp.103-4) - "...Colin James and his 'little big band' roar through 14 songs, many originally recorded by legends of the past....Two originals continue the big, bold, swinging mode..."
A similar situation occurred with AND THE LITTLE BIG BAND II, which came out in Canada a week before Setzer's Grammy winning THE DIRTY BOOGIE was released in the States.

 Amazon.ca: Music: COLIN JAMES
James' forté is his speedy, accomplished guitar playing, which is breathtaking at times, and that's enough to excuse the occasionally awkward originals and predictable covers that pepper the album..
Although it's a little short on originality -- at times you could swear Stevie Ray Vaughan showed him exactly what to play -- Colin James' eponymous debut is an impressive collection of high-octane blues-rock that, at its best, explodes with the intensity of a keg of dynamite.

Between the covers, James offers up a nicely varied slate of gritty electric blues-rockers, laid-back acoustic numbers and even some straight-up guitar-pop, all punctuated with his vibrant, ice-pick axe work.

Colin was/is the lead singer of Men At Work, and with “Be Good Johnny” his voice got stuck in my head for the rest of my life, that last wailing fillip wrapping around my brain stem like the balrog’s whip around Gandalf’s foot.
OK, I cannot believe I just wrote that last phrase.

 Archbishop Colin James III
He documented the claimed lines, shows where the clergy were excommunicated but continued to act on their own or with others as well as the sub conditional and re-ordinations and re-consecrations (contrary to the Canons), and much more.
(Note: another factor is explained on the next linked page.) Archbishop James studied the history of this Church, the many claims to, and many lines of Apostolic Succession that claim to trace back to this Church.
Archbishop James is the Presiding Bishop of The Continuing Episcopal Church and is not a member of the clergy of or head of the canonically established Holy Eastern Orthodox Catholic and Apostolic Church in North America (THEOCACNA) as some unstable individuals claim in an effort to make us appear uncanonical.
