Details:
Craig Wisda's latest CD is the regressive blues experiment: 45 minutes of sizzling retro alternative San Francisco and Peruvian blues. This album serves as a tribute to many of the guitar greats. Echoes and variations of many classic licks weave their way throughout the following songs:

Los Blues â the first of two songs on the disc written with legendary Peruvian bluesmaster Carlos Ackerman. Wisdaâs Spanish lyrics invoke a Latino Willie Dixon.

Hard Luck Bad News â A cover of one of Larry Normanâs bluesiest songs to date. What else can be said?

One More Crooked Mile â A remake of the Spoilers classic with lots of angular departures.

Thatâs A Fine Shot Andrew â Country blues set in a South American country club.

Boy In Blue â A 21st century update of a traditional ballad, depicting the demise of a young Yankee soldier.

Killing Moon â The second song written with Carlos Ackerman, with a swampy retro feel.

Born To Sing The Blues â The title speaks to the authority and conviction of the song.

Helen Of Detroit â Thereâs no telling how many classic San Francisco bands influenced this song, not to mention Bo Diddley and Richard Strauss

Melancholy Baby â Not the jazz standard but an upbeat jazzy blues concoction.

Can You Find Your Way Home? â Setting the tone for future releases, the answer is clear.
