"Bassist/vocalist/songwriter, ninety-two-year-old "Sir" Bob Stroger proves that it's never too late to take center stage. Moving out from his comfortable spot on the back line, where he's been a sideman on over 30 Delmark releases, That's My Name marks Stroger's first album as a leader. And he's not doing it with his usual Chicago crew, instead working with the Brazilian-based Headcutters, one of the most renowned blues bands in Brazil for the past two decades. They have an `old school' style that traces to the historic Chicago blues sound of the fifties and sixties ... You're left wondering why it took so long for Stroger to assume the leader's role but at the same time, we should be grateful that one of the original Chicago bluesmen is still thriving".

"That's My Name (...) recorded in 2019, teams the 89-year old singer-bassist with a Brazilian band known as the Headcutters. He distills the essence of his beloved blues down to a reposeful intimacy, sounding as if he were at peace with himself".
