The Blues is the second album by Alex Harvey. The album was released in 1964. Alex Harvey was accompanied by his brother Les on this album. Originally The Blues would have been the third album, but Polydor did not release the second one (20 unreleased songs were put to CD in 1999). Rumour has it that Alex was not happy about this. He fulfilled his contract, but paid them back with a commercial disaster by making this acoustic album. The sleeve notes on the back tell that it was the idea of Paul Murphy to make this album, but it was Alex who insisted, and Polydor had to agree.
