Johnny Charles is based in New Jersey and this is his third CD, his second for Blues Leaf Records, also based in NJ but perhaps best known for issuing Janiva Magness' early and Albert Castiglia's recent CDs. The band is bass, drums and keys behind Johnny's guitar and the vocals (on just two tracks) are handled by 'Nasty Ned'! I was not familiar with any of the names of the supporting players, apart possibly from Rob Kondor who may well be the same guy who played keys on Clapton's "Journeyman" back in 1991 and features on two tracks here...
