Blues singer Stetson Slim gunned down his manager, then threw himself under a car. So the story goes. But none of the witnesses want to talk about it. Are they hiding something? Might someone else's finger have been on the trigger that fatal day?Forty-five years on, the editor of a blues magazine decides to reopen the case - only to find himself up against a wall of silence, attempts on his life and, worse, his serious lack of aptitude for detective work. Luckily for him, Slim's touring band included the legendary Cobalt and Merriwether, perennially unsuccessful rock stars who can be relied upon to dish the dirt and act the hero. Except that in this case even their lips seem to have been sealed.The Cobalt and Merriwether Blues is a comic murder mystery which delivers more slapstick action than a silent movie, more laughs than a hyena on nitrous oxide, more outlandish characters than a cabinet meeting. Dig those lowdown blues!
