Popa Chubby - It's A Mighty Hard Road

180-gram gatefold double LP

The Beast From The East is back!

New York City blues inventor celebrates his 30th career anniversary!

Fifteen magnificent tracks! A tender and bestial Popa, full of rage and love, electricity and emotion. A must have for all his fans! Popa Chubby's new album It's A Mighty Hard Road is a treat because it goes through the whole range of emotions and sentiments that can be put into songs. Including love, of course. For dessert, Popa Chubby covers "Kiss." Not the group Kiss but the song by Prince.

"Prince really had a big influence on me as a guitar player. There is really nobody above him except maybe Hendrix. I love that song, my girlfriend loved that song when I played it for her. 'Kiss' is a blues song!"

Popa Chubby is returning to the roster of the Dixiefrog label after five years of infidelity. Dixiefrog meant a lot of good for Popa Chubby and vice versa. And, as sings Popa Chubby in the middle of his new album: "The best is yet to come."
