Long John Hunter
One Foot In Texas
selection #DB 6805 | Label: Doc Blues

Texas blues legend Long John Hunter’s first recording in five years was well worth the wait as it not only marks his return to the studio, but also introduces his younger blues brother Tom, a well-seasoned and satisfying singer and guitarist in his own right, to the blues world.

With the Double Trouble rhythm section of bassist Tommy Shannon and drummer Chris Layton, ably assisted by keyboardist Nick Connolly and saxman Mark "Kaz" Kazanoff and his Texas Horns, providing strong, supple and sympathetic musical accompaniment the Hunters creatively cover the entire Texas blues landscape, past and present.

The Hunter Brothers reprise some of Long John’s classic material, debut several blues standards-to-be by Tom and wrap things up with an extended, upclose and personal track featuring just them, their guitars and their memories. It’s nothing less than a master class in Texas blues, enjoyably instructed by some of the best and brightest talents the lone star state has produced.

Musicians: Long John Hunter, Tom "Blues Man" Hunter, Tommy Shannon, Chris Layton, Nick Connolly, The Texas Horns, Mark "Kaz" Kazanoff, John Mills, Les Izmore, Gary Slechta, Gary Primich and Derek O Brien.

Produced by Eddie Stout
