Michael Charles continues the “Under the Covers” series of CD singles with Disc Two “Going Down”, one more outstanding guitar driven performance as MC pays homage to Don Nix writer and the guitar master and performer of Going Down, Jeff Beck.Disc Two’s bonus cut “The Sky Is Crying” is probably the most significant bonus cut for MC. Genuine sentiment flows from this great Elmore James song as Michael recalls time spent with the late George Baze. George, the late Junior Wells guitarist, was instrumental in the beginning of Michael’s introduction to America and Chicago Blues. A gifted friend, an awesome vocalist, his memory lives on through this recording.
As with all of the Under the Covers CD singles, we mark this series truly as a “release for the fans” and once again artwork designed by Jamie Coghill of Michael’s Australian record label, Newmarket Music, features a picture taken by one of MC’s fans, Paula Buechley.
