Description

It’s a simple formula, no teenage guitar heroes, no aging rock stars re-discovering their imaginary “blues roots”, no fawning tribute CD’s, no pointless blues “fusion” CD’s, no flavor of the month meets the blues CD’s, no "the blues is broke, here’s how we should fix it” CD’s, instead, just plenty of straight natural Blues music served up by some of the real originators from Blues music’s greatest generation alongside with the best of this generation’s emerging artists, to whom the torch of the blues tradition has been passed. Keeping that torch burning and having the privilege of releasing the music that we love.  That’s what we’re most proud of  here at Electro-Fi.
