GREAT NEWS!!

Finally Mike Vernon and Sony are re-releasing some of the artists on Bues Horizon!! The March issue of Record Collector says:

"A number of best-ofs from the Blue Horizon labelwill be reissued during the course of the year by Sony."

"...the reissue programme will continue in May with 2-CD best-of sets from Duster Bennett and 'Champion' Jack Dupree, both titledThe Complete Blue Horizon Sessions ."

"...between September and December there will be three or four releases per month from the likes of Eddie Boyd (7936 South Rhodes) .... Gordon Smith (Long Overdue) ..... Otis Spann (Biggest Thing Since Colossus)."

The article also mentions artists like Johnny Shines, Chicken Shack, Top Topham, Bukka White etc... and of course Fleetwood Mac.

If it happens, it is wonderful! I have waited SO LONG for Duster Bennett's original albums to appear on CD. The Indigo home recordings were interesting enough, but the originals deserves to be reissued!!
