Album US 2016 on Great Western Recording Co label
Blues (Delta Blues)
Recorded at Sun Studio in Memphis, Baptist Town is steeped in the rich history of the South and the folklore that is so important to American culture. The catalyst for the record is the small neighborhood outside Greenwood Mississippi where legendary blues guitarist Robert Johnson was murdered in 1938. The trio (Jerry Angel, John Bazz, and Mike Eldred) invited several guests to lend a hand in the making of Baptist Town including David Hidalgo, Robert Cray, and John Mayer. The dichotomy between love and hate, rich and poor, sin and salvation, black and white, are apparent throughout the record, and reflect many of society s struggles that continue to haunt us all.
