JOHNNY COPELAND: Catch up with the Blues (1994) Polygram Records

This CD is Johnny’s best work. Starting out with the title track which is a killer shuffle to which I could listen to over and over again. You will find it hard to sit still in your seat. All the way to the last track “Life’s Rainbow (Nature Song)” which has some wonderful lyrics and was always a crowd favorite during is concerts. The CD also contains contributions by artists such as Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Lonnie Brooks, and Joe “Guitar” Hughes. Johnny Copeland was one of the hardest working bluesmen on the tour and this album demonstrates his passion and dedication to the blues. If you like Texas blues then you will love this CD. sven@valleyblues.com
