Singer and harmonica player Neal Pattman belongs to thirties old country blues school His style is deeply rooted on East Coast blues tradition What you will find on this cd, is nothing but Piedmont, Virginia, Carolines, Georgia or Alabama blues, with the different sounds of the mentioned states, but always standing out the genuine ‘finger-pickin’ guitar playing technique, which is so typical on these blues styles Of course Neal’s harmonica playing has been deeply influenced by Sonny Terry style Thirteen delightful songs, where blues runs fiercely along the whole cd You will find some excellent musicians and friends backing Neal, such as Taj Mähäl, Cootie Stark or Timothy Duffy In short words, an amazing cd
