05.07.2002

Live at Auditorium Stravinski

Ever since Damn Right I've Got The Blues (1991) - one of the albums of the last decade - success has never left his side. Neither has his enthusiasm for Blues, as his latest CG`D Sweet Tea, which plunges into the heart of Mississippi, attests. (FFJM © 2002)
