Product Details

Castro has spent decades earning his stripes on the club circuit, building a sound rooted equally in Chicago blues, Memphis soul, and the kind of Bay Area R&B that shaped artists like Boz Scaggs and Charlie Musselwhite. This concept album, a format rarely attempted in contemporary blues, shows a veteran comfortable enough in his craft to take real risks with storytelling and structure.


Vinyl re-release with a new color! Highlighter yellow vinyl version of this raucous, multi-song tale of a young man bitten by the blues bug.  A striking collection of songs tell the story in vivid lyrics brought to life by Castro's patented roadhouse rock, soulful ballads and deep, greasy grooves. "One of the brightest stars in the blues-soul genre. Voracious blues energy and ultimate soul power... impassioned vocals and pure inventiveness in his stellar guitar solos." -Blues Music Magazine
