Product Description:
This is Roy Rogers' first ever live CD. Drawing on inspiration and material from a career that spans decades of performing, Roy Rogers is considered one of the world's leading practitioners of modern slide guitar. This is a Bandlink Enhanced CD which enables you to access new and exclusive Roy Rogers content - instant tour dates, news alerts, bonus music tracks, live video footage and direct chats with the Roy.
Nominated for 8 Grammys for his production and performing work in the recording industry, Rogers has been immersed in the blues and roots scene and performing professionally since the ripe age of 13.

Rogers is also featured on Sierra Center Stage 1, the Sierra Nevada Brewing Company-sponsored television series which seeks to bring exposure to underexposed American Roots and World musicians.
This CD includes special guest performances by pianist Phil Aaberg, harmonica wizard Norton Buffalo, vocalist Shana Morrison and fiddler Tom Rigney.

It's great to lay it down and not have to bother with the added textures of studio polish - but keep it as gritty and fresh as possible. I also wanted to capture the band at this moment in time and I think we did that,' adds Rogers.
