Title: Gave Myself the Blues Artist: Mack, Johnny Label: Topcat Records Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 014172030321 Genre: Blues
Texan Johnny Mack won Ft. Worth's "Blues Man of 2002" in the performing category for his extraordinary vocals and washboard playing; this debut recording delivers the goods, running the gamut from Swamp Pop and Western Swing to Low Down Blues. From Wes Race's liner notes: "What impresses me most about Johnny's performances is his Big Blues Shoutin' vocals, coupled with his gator-rockin' rubboard ooze and Nitelife authenticity that all of US Jaded Lovers and Blues Spectators crave." Johnny is joined here by his most dedicated Nitelife Krew: Paul Byrd, James Hinkle, Beer belly Slim, Ed Lively, Johnny Reno, and Kenny Traylor.
