Bell Lurrie

Blues In My Soul Bell Lurrie

One of the greatest living Chicago blues guitarists Lurrie Bell's last two CDs have been about stretching him (successfully) to showcase the breadth as well as the magnitude of his art. However for this project he just wanted to get back to the solid foundation of Chicago-styled traditional guitar blues done with his rare blend of reverence involvement and individuality and framed largely by his working band. Lurrie Bell vocals guitar: Roosevelt Purifoy piano organ; Melvin Smith bass Willie the Touch Hayes drums; and on six songs Matthew Skoller harmonica. Produced by Dick Shurman.
