Subject: New 1930s Delta Blues CD
D. Johnson performs acoustic 1930s delta blues in an authetic way that carries on the tradition of Robert Johnson and Son House. You can hear sound samples of his new CD "Doney Blues" at http://djohnsonblues.com/music.html and purchase the CD at http://cdbaby.com/cd/djohnsontunes2.

"If you ever wanted to hear Robert Johnson or Son House bring to life their immortal songs of the 20s and 30s, there is now a way to "time travel." Get "Doney Blues" the new cd by D. Johnson. The singing and the playing make them all sound richly authentic and darkly honest--the songs don't sound old or stuffy and this is no museum set. These are just great songs done really well with great respect to the style of the original artists. There are few opportunities in blues to hear this kind of artistry, to enjoy traveling back in time. Mr D. Johnson, thank you for making a great cd of some of my blues heroes. Everybody go buy this cd, and go hear this man if he plays close by. You will not regret it." The Sunday Night Blues Project

"...This is incredible stuff: Remarkably disturbing traditional slide blues cut from the same cloth of the likes of Son House and Robert Johnson. ...This music is lean, catchy, scary and in your face: everything it should be." Southwest Blues Magazine

"Johnson has a master's touch with his instrument ...If you are looking for well played, traditional acoustic blues, you'll find it here." Blues Access Magazine
