Johnny Rawls is one of the American soul blues living legends Singer, guitar player, producer and songwriter, he began his recording career at a certain age, when he already was forty-three years old Since that moment Johnny has developed a fruitful career with countless shows and different recordings, so this new album is the number twenty in his career It comes from 2019 and was recorded during a Rawls’ tour in Europe where he was supported by one of the best European backing trios, The Özdemirs from Germany, with Erkan Özdemir on bass and his sons Kenan on guitar and Levent on drums They are joined by Italian piano and organ player Alberto Marsico Nine of the ten album songs come from a show at Bischolsmahle in Hildesheim, while T-Bone Walker’s slow blues Stormy Monday comes from a show at Bygningen in Veijle in Denmark Levent Özdemir did also a good job in the final recording production The result is an album where nothing has been left to chance, inviting listeners to a real journey to blues and especially to the most traditional soul, by a roster of very reputed ‘chefs’ in the art of cooking Southern music
