"Back in the early 2000's I was given the OK to start a new blues album
for Stony Plain
Somehow after recording nine hot blues tracks, I got another album concept so
we started another album session. I said we'd get back to the blues album soon
after fnishing the new project. As things sometimes go, we got busy with gigging,
touring and life. That early blues album we cut kept getting put aside and we kept
coming up with new album concepts within months of release of the last one.
Finally, after two decades and dozens of recordings, we got to the place where it
was time for my fnal Stony Plain record. All this time I knew we had to get back
to the album we had started back in 2005. I knew those tracks were really strong
but until I listened to them again, I didn't realize just how strong they really were."
