Charlie Musselwhite - Look Out Highway

Charlie Musselwhite — Look Out Highway

Limited edition 140-gram gatefold "Crystal Green" vinyl

With its signature blend of Delta and Chicago blues mixed with Memphis soul, Look Out Highway is pure Charlie Musselwhite. Recorded at Kid Andersen's Greaseland Studio in San Jose California, it's the first time Charlie has recorded with his long-time touring band, comprised of guitarist Matt Stubbs (GA-20), drummer June Core (Robert Lockwood Jr.) and bassist Randy Bermudes (James Cotton), along with Andersen who has been in and out of the band for many years. Their chemistry and command is abundantly clear from the opening notes.

Throughout his illustrious career Charlie Musselwhite has received 13 Grammy nominations and 33 Blues Music Awards. In 2014 his collaboration with Ben Harper Get Up won a Grammy and in 2010 he was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame. In 2023, Musselwhite was cast in Martin Scorsese's film Killers of the Flower Moon.

Charlie Musselwhite is a true master of American classic vernacular music.
