Info zu Major League Blues

Mit seinen 34 Jahren hat der Blueskünstler Jose Ramirez bereits mit einigen der größten Namen in der Bluesindustrie gespielt. Zu diesen Künstlern gehören Buddy Guy, Anson Funderburgh, Janiva Magness, Mark Hummel, Bryan Lee und Mike Wheeler, um nur einige zu nennen. Jose ist auch der erste lateinamerikanische Blueskünstler, der bei Delmark unter Vertrag steht.

Während der historischen Sessions, die im Sommer 2021 im Delmark Records Riverside Studio stattfanden Riverside Studio stattfanden, erhielt Jose den Segen des 93-jährigen Jimmy Johnson und des 90-jährigen Bob Stroger, zwei der angesehensten Ältesten der Blueswelt. Diese Sessions mit der Delmark All-Star Band bestätigten, dass Jose ein 100%iger Major League Blues-Spieler ist. Die Zeugen dieser Session waren zu Tränen gerührt als sie hörten, wie der junge Costa Ricaner elektrisierende Phrasen mit dem unvergleichlichen einzigen Jimmy Johnson.

Das Album enthält acht Originalsongs und zwei klassische von den Meistern des Chicago-Blues, Magic Sam und Eddie Taylor.
