Description
Opus 3 Records has once again been fortunate to discover a great new artist: Bottleneck John! His debut "All Around Man" is a very unusual and unique Blues album.

It was by sheer coincidence we found Bottleneck John in September. After a nice first meeting in the studio, everything was settled! We had very similar ideas how to go about the album, and Bottleneck John made a great selection of songs and with a good variation. On many tracks we also hear his blues brothers playing grand piano, Hammond organ, Wurlitzer, resonator & upright bass, percussion, fiddle, mandolin etc.

With a fantastic voice and great slide guitar playing on all his resonator guitarss (look in the CD-booklet), we are extremely fortunate to have a very unusual and unique blues album, with so much authenticity and inspiration from the first half of the 20th century, when many legendary blues musicians were active.

Opus 3 Records explains how the album came about: "It was by sheer coincidence we found Bottleneck John in September 2012 and for that we are very, very glad! After a nice first meeting in my studio, everything was settled! We had very similar ideas how to go about the album, and Bottleneck John made a great selection of songs and with a good variation.

On many tracks we also hear his blues brothers playing grand piano, Hammond organ, Wurlitzer, resonator & upright bass, percussion, fiddle, mandolin etc.

With a fantastic voice and great slide guitar playing on all his resonator guitars...We are fortunate to have a very unusual and unique blues album, with so much authenticity and inspiration from the first half of the 20th century, when many legendary blues musicians were active.

In the booklet, you find a lot of background and history of both the songs and the instruments used on the album, which is not that usual nowadays."
