Stand your ground

"Stand Your Ground is a long-awaited gem from a blues master who knows what it means to stand up for the blues in which he steadfastly believes".

"John Long's empathic way with the blues has won him the admiration of artists such as Muddy Waters - and listening to his latest collection, it's easy to hear why. Stand Your Ground (...) finds the St. Louis native with his estimable gifts undiminished ... Stand Your Ground is the portrait of an artist firmly planted in the early roots and blues that he loves".
