Malaya Blue – Blue Credentials
Release date: October 21, 2022Label: Blue Heart Records
‘Blue Credentials,’ the new Malaya Blue album, is the follow up to the critically acclaimed ‘Still,’ and as the title suggests finds the outstanding UK vocalist delving ever deeper into her blues heart.
It’s certainly her most guitar driven album to date. The fruitful collaboration with legendary blues writer and producer Dennis Walker (R.I.P.) is again at its core but this time with a world class band in the studio and writing contributions from Joey Delgado, Hank Linderman and Brett Lucas.
The long lost, and some said mythical, John Campbell track, “Howlin’ Mercy,” finally sees the light of day 30 plus years after Dennis wrote it and Elektra chickened out of releasing it.
