Recorded in July 2008 and launched with a Finnish-Estonian tour in February 2009, this half live, half studio album teams Estonian vocalist Alar Kriisa, guitarist Andres Roots and bassist Peeter Piik with British harpist Steve Lury, mixing post-war Chicago and pre-war Delta blues influences in a way the Blues-Finland.com critic Auvo Laaksonen describes as "a real bullseye in the global world of music." Comes with in-depth liner notes and full lyrics.
"More often than not, Bullfrog Brown is associated with the alt.blues scene, but unless you define alt.blues by a distinct lack of 15-minute guitar solos, it is unlikely for this CD to be filed under that category. Almost every time I've talked to Steve, we've ended up discussing Muddy Waters, & I think that kinda says it..." (excerpt from the liner notes)
"Lyrically, in structure, it has the complexity of Dylan. Musically, Estonia meets The Delta face on." - Carol Borrington, Blues Matters!
"Beautifully delivered - both musically and vocally." - Grahame Rhodes, bluesinthenorthwest.com
"Thoroughly enjoyable." - John Vermilyea, Blues Underground Network
