Underground Blues - La Hora del Blues digs it...
2009-11-02 22:46Here's a cool cd review from a dj and online cd reviewer in Spain. I think he got a bit confused translating my bio since he ignored my last 12 years iin Austin and Lafayette and somehow thinks that Cleveland's music is from the deep South - but he tried! Thanks Vicente!
"Here comes a cd with the good work of a musician born in Cleveland, Ohio who discovered his love for blues in 1991, when he was a Dj at WRUW. Singer, song writer and guitar player Marty Christian finds inspiration in the sound of singer and guitarist Robert Lockwood Jr. and especially in many blues bands of Cleveland area which perform the most classic Chicago deep south blues. Christian will communicate you honest sincere feelings which are passionately given thanks to an emotional intimist heartrending playing in a very unaffected plain way. Marty really plays what he feels and how he feels it on straight simple sincere way. The cd includes ten original songs plus a version of Howlin’ Wolf’s “Bluebird”. Marty’s guitar and voice lead the whole cd, except when he gives place to Andy Cornett’s harmonica playing in two cuts. The result is an interesting album of an artist who deserves consideration among media and fans. VERY GOOD." Vicente Zumel, La Hora del Blues, Nov, 2009
