We're excited to announce that we're releasing The Blues, The Whole Blues and Nothing But the Blues, the brand new record from the godfather of Americana, David Bromberg on October 14th. Produced by Larry Campbell, this is a wonderfully curated selection of deep cuts from the blues genre, in addition to original compositions. Bromberg found his inspiration for the album when he heard Willie Nelson repeat a quote from Texas fiddler Johnny Gimble: "There's only two kinds of music – the Star-Spangled Banner and the Blues."
Hear a blustering take on Robert Johnson's "Walkin' Blues" over at The Bluegrass Situation.
