Eric Bibb's exceptional live recording Booker's Guitar is the first representation we have that accurately mirrors his magnetic and charismatic performances. True to tradition and yet uniquely his own, Eric's new recording is a history lesson in finger picking acoustic blues, offering songs of endless travel, rocking chairs on the porch, and morality- all simple on the surface with heavy meanings underneath. Inspired by Bibb's encounter with a 1930s vintage Resophonic National steel-body guitar that had once belonged to Delta blues legend Booker White, this is the natural progress of the original American art form of blues music.
'If you were going to build the perfect acoustic bluesman, he'd probably turn out looking and sounding exactly like Eric Bibb.' - Chicago Sun-Times
