Eric Bibb | Booker’s Guitar (Coming Jan. 26th, 2010)
The story is as legendary as Robert Johnson at the crossroads, as old as the blues itself.

Suddenly, everything is up for grabs, and the music – already rich and historically resonant – takes a whole new direction.

T-Model Ford | The Ladies Man (Coming Jan. 12th, 2010)
T-MODEL FORD Set To Release “The Ladies Man” on January 12, 2010
Alive Naturalsound Records is pleased to announce the release of T-MODEL FORD “The Ladies Man” on January 12th, 2010.
T-Model’s 80-something years old… his Mississippi Driver’s License says he’s 84, his US Passport says he’s 87, and he says he’s 88… so you decide. He started playing guitar based on Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf, but T’s only got one style: his own. T’s illiterate, so no use in talking to him about tuning. They call it “open T” because it’s his own unique sound.
