BUDDY GUY - THE REAL DEAL (1996)
Después de un soberbio Stone Crazy del 81 casi nada podemos rescatar de este formidable bluesman hasta bien entrada la década de los noventa. El hombre que adoctrinado por sus padres, había caído en el olvido por todos ,salvo una excepción, que vendría cruzando el gran charco. Clapton se disponía a realizar una maratónica serie de conciertos en el Royal Albert Hall y como devolución a su ferviente devoción por el de Chicago lo contrata, por espacio de dos años. La Silvertone Records echa sus ojos en la luminaria en desgracia y estampa "Damn Right, I've Got The Blues" su éxito mas comercial hasta la fecha junto a Jeff Beck, Mark Knopfler, Memphis Horns y Mano Lenta.

Blackwater Park is an obscure band that emerged from the Berlin underground scene. They released their unique album "Dirt Box" in 1971, published on BASF in 1972. The group delivers a captivating, effective bluesy-heavy rock "trip" with lot of incisive guitar riffs, progressive Hammond Organ's arrangements, melodic heavy vocals and psychedelic effects that are part of the mix. His British singer had a strong voice. Especially the third and heavy track "Indian Summer", which clearly shows us the quality, engaging and virtuosity among its members. Remember that the last song is beautiful version of "For No One", composed by Lennon and McCartney,with the album 'Revolver' issued in 1966.
