GA-20 with Charlie Musselwhite – Blues Now (Limited Edition Coloured Vinyl)

GA-20 with Charlie Musselwhite – Blues Now brings together two generations of blues musicians for a direct, guitar-led set rooted in classic electric blues and blues-rock tradition. Issued by New West Records as a limited-edition coloured vinyl release, this pressing is an ideal choice for listeners who want contemporary blues played with a strong sense of history, feel and economy.

GA-20 have built their reputation around raw, uncluttered arrangements and an old-school approach to amplification, groove and songcraft. On Blues Now, that aesthetic is paired with the unmistakable presence of Charlie Musselwhite, whose harmonica playing and decades of experience connect the record to the deepest traditions of post-war American blues. The collaboration gives the album a lived-in character: tough, spacious and focused on performance rather than unnecessary studio polish.

The programme moves through ten songs, including “Crazy Love”, “I Can’t Hold Out”, “The Blues Never Die”, “Strange Land”, “Short Dress Woman” and the atmospheric “Cristo Redentor”. Across the record, the emphasis remains on strong riffs, expressive playing and the conversational interplay that has always been central to great blues recordings. The result should appeal equally to fans of traditional blues, modern roots music and gritty blues-rock.

This edition is pressed on limited-edition coloured vinyl and comes as a single 12-inch LP on New West Records. With GA-20’s stripped-back attack meeting Charlie Musselwhite’s instantly recognisable blues vocabulary, Blues Now is a focused, collector-friendly release that celebrates the durability of the form without treating it as museum music. It is a strong fit for anyone who values authentic performances, classic tones and a record that puts musicianship and feel at the centre.
