For thirty-plus years Robert Cray
has laid down track after track of
good-time, uptown, low-down blues. He’s
won five Grammys and been nominated for
11 more, inspired critics to praise his soulful
vocal and instrumental artistry, earned
respect from his peers, and sent young
guitarists running back to the woodshed.
From classic titles such as Phone Booth, to
highlights from his more recent releases
such as Poor Johnny, to addressing timeless
themes of heartache and romance in
The Things You Do To Me or this morning’s
headlines in Twenty, Cray’s repertoire has led to collaborations with luminaries such as
Eric Clapton, the Rolling Stones, B. B. King, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Chuck
Berry and Bonnie Raitt.
