about

Recorded over 2 days in August '13 at Mill Studios in Alnwick, Northumberland, this catches BBB at his best - stripped back and raw, with a hint of Sun Studios slapback. Acoustic, electric, dobro, slide and cigar box guitars; footstompers and other foot percussion; gravelly vocals and sublime harmonies, this album ranges from solo performances through to fuller productions - dirty blues, Americana and rock'n'roll to die for. Mostly covers.
