Notes: Guitar Nick (Nicolai Tanev) was born on 23.06.1962 in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. He started playing guitar when he was sixteen, but his real progress began after his meeting with the most famous Bulgarian classical guitar teacher Dimiter Deutschinoff. For about five years he took private lessons and worked on the music of composers such as Albeniz, Tarrega, Vila - Lobos, Bach and many others. Meantime he majored in French literature, worked as a translator and after getting his certificate for guitar - teacher from the Bulgarian Ministry of Culture he started giving private lessons. He is a member of the American Blues Foundation.
Blue Al (Alexander Donchev) was born on 25.05.1972 in Sofia, Bulgaria. The first group where he played harmonica was "Montana". The group performed Country music and toured the whole country. For his exceptional abilities of bluesman he was invited and performed as a guest - musician in the albums of "Herman's Wolf Band" and "Djendema". Alexander Donchev plays mainly in clubs and gets many gigs with the groups "Cocomania", "Vasko Krapkata".
Recorded at "Silvia Music Studio", Sofia, Bulgaria, between February and April 2000, the style is acoustic blues. It consists of 15 tracks, 10 of which are songs - original blues standards by Robert Johnson, Willie Dixon, Joe Williams and Huddie Ledbetter, and the other 5 are instrumentals - 3 of them by Nicolai Tanev (Guitar Nick) and 2 by Alexander Donchev (Blue Al).
The characteristic acoustic sound of the music is defined by the wide use of classical nylon - stringed guitar, which can't be seen very often in the blues, combined with the typical blues sound of "Hohner Blues Harp" without effects. Full acoustic - this is the main sound idea in this album. Both musicians sound as if they were very close to you, without any amplification.
As the title suggests , this album is a reverence for Robert Johnson, but unlike the wonderful album of Peter Green it goes much farther - it includes others classics and presents the original blues conception of both young musicians.
