Dead Daisies Got The Blues
The Dead Daisies have issued “Crossroads,” the first single from their upcoming album “Lookin’ For Trouble,” a collection of Blues classics, scheduled for May 30th.
Originally recorded by Robert Johnson in 1936, the song has become an integral part of the Blues lexicon.
“When I first heard Blues, it was through the music of bands like Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones,” explained Dead Daisies frontman John Corabi (pictured). “The deeper I researched the music of my heroes the deeper I got into the history or origins. The Blues, in my opinion, has influenced EVERY genre of music we listen to.”
