"Johnny Burgin Live is Burgin's fourth release for Delmark Records as a leader, and his first release after the highly successful "Party This Christmas" digital single. The new album (10 original songs, 4 covers) not only features Johnny's talents, but adds both legendary and rising star special guests to make this an all-star West Coast blues party. Harmonica legend Charlie Musselwhite blows his distinctive styled harp on 3 cuts, including his driving work on "California Blues"".

"Johnny Burgin Live features Burgin and and a rotating cast of West Coast musicians performing a set of blues that's deeply rooted in the grit and passion of Chicago's West Side. The opening track, You Got to Make a Change, makes it clear that the chemistry and musicianship onstage were top notch ... It takes a special talent to generously share the spotlight and bring out the best in a star-studded cast of musicians. Burgin and his friends clearly had a great time on stage, and that makes Johnny Burgin Live a joyous listen".
