The Rusties Blues Band is a four musician group from Gerona in the north east of Spain which started to play in 2013. In 2015 they released a double album, the first cd with their own compositions and the second one with versions of classic blues songs. This second cd led them to produce a show entitled “Traveling along the Blues Roads” where they brought the history of blues to varied general audiences with small documentaries and the band live music.

Now they release a second album, that becomes a tribute to the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson, and they do it on a simple humble way with an impressive respect for this incredible artist but, at the same time, with good doses of quality, performing technique and honesty. Of the twenty-nine songs Robert Johnson recorded during his life, The Rusties Blues Band has chosen eleven that represent the legacy of this key figure in the blues world who had a deep influence not only in blues music but also in rock and popular music.

The band leader Miquel Grifell is on guitar, Resonator, cigar box, harmonica and vocals, Manel Gaspar is on piano and Hammond, Miquel Pascal is on electric bass and double bass and finally Angel Abad controls drums and washboard. /La Hora Del Blues

The Rusties Blues Band is a band from Girona that has been on the Spanish blues scene for years. They have released several albums and their enthusiasm for bringing the blues to all corners of Spain is commendable. On their latest album, they've taken a leap of faith. Instead of presenting a standard tracklist, they've decided to pay tribute to the three "Kings" (Albert King, B.B. King, and Freddie King), playing both covers and originals that these three guitar kings once recorded.

The songs are well known to all fans, just mention titles like “I’m Tore Down”, “Born Under A Sign” or “The Thrill Is Gone”, three songs written by one of the Kings. But there are also versions of other songs not written by them but that they also recorded such as “Caledonia” by Louis Jordan, “Everyday I Have The Blues” by Memphis Slim or “Call It Stormy Monday” by T-Bone Walker to name six of the twelve songs they perform on this album, and which serve to give the fans an idea of what they are going to find on this album.

An album made with humility and simplicity, which simply aims to be a tribute from true fans to these three artists who have undoubtedly left a profound mark on each and every blues lover. /La Hora Del Blues
