Undoubtedly singular and well loved Barrelhouse Chuck is an excellent person and one of the greatest and most exquisite piano players of the most genuine Chicago blues style At the end of the seventies Chuck could personally meet Blind John Davis, Erwin Helfer, Pinetop Perkins, Detroit Junior, Sunnyland Slim and his spiritual father Little Brother Montgomery He learned all the secrets and resources of the piano blues and barrelhouse style directly from them, but he also studied other elder great masters as Leroy Carr, Big Maceo or Otis Spann With this album Chuck wants to pay his most sincere and passionate tribute to all those great heroes that lasted a deep mark in his life and professional career, and he does it by playing some of their compositions, where the spirit of all them can be felt in every single note The magic and talent of this amazing piano player flourish along the whole album, where he has counted with the valuable collaboration of Billy Flynn on guitar and his friends and excellent piano players Lluís Coloma in the song Vicksburg Blues, where Chuck sings with the usual respect and heartbreaking feeling he communicates, not only in this particular tune but in the rest of songs included in the recording, and Scott Grube in the song How About Me This is an essential album for any Chicago blues piano fan Thanks Chuck, you already know we really love you
