21st Century Blues (ABC Music/Universal)
Christa Hughes and her father Dick Hughes have recorded their
first album together. “21st Century Blues” was released nationally
on February the 5th through ABC Music / Universal. It is a collection
of jazz and blues songs from the 1920s and 30s including compositions
by Bessie Smith, Memphis Slim and Jelly Roll Morton.
"It's 21st Century Blues all right but it summons up that
original spirit many have forgotten about, the force that made
this music so edgy and radical when it first came out"
