Blues guitarist JOHNNY LAPORTE (Barrelhouse, Oscar Benton) releases his first solo album. With twelve bluesy songs on which he proves to be an all-round bluesman. Parallel to this album, he makes his debut as a writer with an Indian novel. On his first solo album, Johnny makes his debut as an accomplished singer with a slightly weathered voice. He also presents himself as a multi-instrumentalist. Of course his guitar work is most in the foreground. But in the quiet ‘Storyteller’, for example, his piano playing creates a tranquil atmosphere. In the reggae-like ‘We Gotta Tie Her Down’ you can even hear a synthesizer. In the blues ballad ‘Forbidden Blues’, inspired by the old ‘Summertime’, you can fully enjoy his slow-hand guitar playing.
