  • Description

    Opus 3 Records was fortunate to discover Eric Bibb in 1977 and his 2nd album "Spirit & the Blues" in1994 was his breakthrough album worldwide. "Blues, Ballads & Work Songs" is his new and 5th album on Opus 3.

    To Quote Eric:
    "Blues, Ballads & Work Songs'"is an album I have been working on for most of my life. Its release coincides with my 60th birthday and it celebrates the music that first inspired me to become a guitar-playing singer.

    Being as passionate about writing songs as I am about singing and playing traditional material, I couldn't resist including the self-penned tunes at the end of the record. These newer songs, are the 'children' of the older ones.
