"Blues Around The World" is a CD that showcases veteran guitarist and singer Bob Margolin's deep-rooted, traditional blues sound, shaped by decades on the road and in the studio. Known for his raw tone, soulful slide work and storytelling lyrics, Margolin connects classic Chicago and Delta influences with a contemporary, lived-in perspective. The album offers a rich palette of grooves: from slow, emotional shuffles and intimate, guitar-driven ballads to more driving, up-tempo numbers that keep the spirit of the old masters alive while sounding fresh and personal. The songs circle around universal blues themes - love, loss, resilience and the joy of playing - and put Margolin's expressive guitar and weathered, characterful voice at the center. "Blues Around The World" is aimed at listeners who appreciate authentic, roots-oriented blues without studio gimmicks, focused instead on feeling, interplay and strong, memorable guitar lines.
Bob Margolin is widely respected in the blues community for his long career and his close connection to the tradition. He came to prominence in the 1970s as a guitarist with Muddy Waters' band, learning first-hand from one of the most important figures in blues history and helping to carry that legacy forward on stage and on record. Over the years he has built a solid solo career, releasing numerous albums on respected blues labels, touring extensively and earning a reputation as a powerful live performer who bridges past and present. His playing combines rough Chicago grit, slide-driven intensity and a lyrical sense of melody that has inspired many younger musicians.
The CD is released by Vizztone, a label dedicated to roots music and especially to blues and blues-related styles. Vizztone focuses on artists who carry on traditional sounds with conviction while adding their own voice, and is known among blues fans as a home for high-quality, carefully produced releases. With a strong network in the international blues scene, the label supports touring, promotion and genre-focused distribution, helping albums like "Blues Around The World" reach an audience that values authenticity and musicianship. Vizztone's catalogue reflects a clear commitment to the preservation and continued development of the blues, making it a fitting home for Bob Margolin's music.
"Blues Around The World" is therefore both a tribute to the timeless power of the blues and a personal statement by an artist who has lived this music for decades. The CD offers a cohesive listening experience that works equally well for long-time blues aficionados and for newcomers wanting to discover the genre through an experienced, authoritative voice.
