Helge Tallqvist is one of the best actual Finnish harmonica players He discovered the blues during the 1980s in Stockholm and Los Angeles, California, where he could see playing live the great George Smith George took him and his friends around all blues clubs in Los Angeles, and became a big source of inspiration to Helge’s musical development In 2005 our man published a first tribute album to honour George Harmonica Smith’s memory Ten years later Helge has gathered a handful of excellent Scandinavian musicians to pay tribute again and recover the spirit of the incredible George Smith, in a bunch of songs that come from other composers, where the flame and the knowledge received from that amazing harmonica player remain alive and intact Despite it is an instrumental recording, the funny atmosphere, the good relationship among all players and the eagerness all musicians put in the whole project, give as a result a pleasantly recommendable album
