John Moony's first album release since 2006. This long awaited album is John's Tribute to Son House, who mentored John and show him much of his music first hand. This album contains some of the most authentic, masterful acoustic slide guitar playing that exists, which goes back to the source, Son House.
Son House and John Mooney met in 1971, this friendship shaped their lives forever. Was it serendipity that brought Son and John together? I believe they were destined to meet.
Son and Moon, this recording is about heritage. It’s what shapes and defines who we are. As the torch gets passed on, some of the flavors, wisdom,and attitude are inherited by the next generation.
This tribute showcases the songs of Son House,and you will hear the indelible mark his musicality left on John. One might say that the Moon is out, but the Son never set.

Note: In the world of blues critics, guitarist, singer, and songwriter John Mooney has long been a favorite. That's because he takes all he learned from classic Delta bluesmen like Son House and others and modernizes their stylings while adding his own unique stamp to classic Delta blues tunes. Even his original songs, often autobiographical, are steeped in the classic blues tradition. Mooney divides his time between residences in Florida and New Orleans, and usually works with a simple guitar-bass-drums trio known as Bluesiana. His vocals are powerful and inspired, and his guitar playing is often loud and electric, but so steeped in the style of House and others classic Delta bluesman, that he transcends generations in the blues idiom.
Although he is widely know among blues fans as an electric guitarist, Mooney began his career as strictly an acoustic player. This CD is a reissue of some of his early work on a small label. All in all, not quite as dark as his later work. Some good music here, though, despite a piano that overpowers the guitar on some tracks.
