200gm vinyl LP pressing housed in a gatefold sleeve. The blues live on because the blues give people life, not the other way around. Talk about the blues with Grammy winning singersongwriter and composer Taj Mahal, or Tim Duffy, founder of the Music Maker Relief Foundation, and you'll quickly understand how deeply they grasp this. So it's no surprise that their shared love of blues has created a special vinyl-only album release that's got the loose, easy feel of a porch-sitting guitar strum, sipping sweet tea on a warm summer day. Labor of Love comprises recordings made by Duffy, hanging out with Taj and other artists in a Houston hotel room and during visits to the Music Maker Relief Foundation headquarters in Hillsborough, North Carolina. Stack-O-Lee, Shortnin' Bread (with Neal Patman), My Creole Belle, I Ain't The One You Love (with Algia Mae Hinton), Fishing Blues, Mistreating Blues (with John Dee Holeman), African Wysie, So Sweet (with Cootie Stark), Klondike Gold, Hambone (with John Dee Holeman), Walking Blues, John Henry (with Etta Baker), Song For Brenda (with Cool John Ferguson)
