<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">Based in Sao
Paulo, Brazil, Giba “Guitar” Byblos is no stranger to straight-ahead Chicago
blues, and he delivers it in heaping helpings on this self-produced CD, the
second in his brief, but extremely tasty catalog.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: 13px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">In addition
to being a string-bender and vocalist who delivers his lyrics in almost totally
unaccented English, he’s also a music promoter who’s worked closely with some
of the best musicians the Windy City has to offer, including guitarists Jimmy
Johnson, aka the Barroom Preacher, rising superstar Toronzo Cannon and
Jon McDonald, a longtime fixture with Magic Slim, and drummer Merle Perkins, a
40-year veteran timekeeper and bandleader whose resume includes long service
time with James Cotton, Lonnie Brooks, Freddy and Albert King, John
Littlejohn and Son Seals, just to name a few.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: 13px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span lang="EN-US">The second
disc in Byblos’ catalog,</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></span><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Tomorrow</span></em><span class="apple-converted-space"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-US">is a follow-up to the 2011 release,</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></span><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">My Duty</span></em><span lang="EN-US">. It came about after a conversation
with Johnson at the conclusion of a Brazilian tour three years ago. The pair
were stuck in traffic and Giba, the driver, was feeling anxious. Johnson tried
to calm him, drawing from 60 years on the road. “Listen to me,” he said.
“Yesterday have came and gone. Tomorrow is unknown.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: 13px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">That kernel
of wisdom evolved into a song on which Byblos and Johnson share writing credits
as well as this album, which includes eight other Giba originals and three
covers. Johnson joins Byblos in the studio on rhythm and lead for a cover of
his classic tune, “Heap See.” Rounding out the sound are a collection of several
top Brazilian musicians, including Fabio Basili (bass), Paulinha Sarriso
(drums), Dada Tristao and Adriana Grineberg (keyboards), Mauricio Sahady
(guitar), Clayton Silva (sax) and Miqueias Nascimento (trumpet). Edu Gomes, who
produced the disc, adds tambourine and shakers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: 13px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">It doesn’t
take more than a few seconds of listening to “Tomorrow,” the title cut, which
opens the album, to realize that, which being totally current, Byblos’ attack
on the strings is a throwback to the clean approach that was popular in the
Windy City from the ‘60s onward, but is quickly becoming a dying art. Like
Johnson, Giba’s notes fly off of the fretboard through the amp and into the
soundboard in their natural state, virtually free of the many effects than
contemporaries rely on today. His voice is as powerful and clear as his
single-note guitar runs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">Up next,
Byblos takes Junior Kimbrough’s “Lord Have Mercy On Me” out of the Hill Country
and makes it his own with a contemporary Chicago feel before a horn-fueled
cover of Johnson’s “Heap See,” on which the Windy City octogenarian lends a
hand himself. “Earn A Dime” delivers the thoughts of a heavy drinker who thinks
the only way he can make any money is by shooting dice. Unfortunately, he
realizes that all of his efforts are in vain as he struggles without a penny in
his pocket. Giba’s guitar solo cries out to reveal his pain.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: black; color: white;">Another
sweeping guitar solo kicks off an updated version of Freddy King’s “She Put A
Whammy On Me,” which tells the story of falling for an unforgettable woman
who’s cast such a spell on him that he’s left in misery. A block of five more
originals follow. “Up For No Good” is a medium-paced shuffle with more fine
work on the strings about a woman who’s playing kiss-and-tell, while
“Riverside” recounts Byblos’ journey through the Mississippi Delta and a stay
at Clarksdale’s legendary Riverside Hotel, which served as a home to dozens of
top musicians before integration and where Bessie Smith died. “17 Years” is an
expression of lasting love after a long separation while “Wrong Place, Wrong
Time” is a slow blues lament about the end of a love affair before the uptempo
instrumental “Catch You On The Flipside” brings the album to a close.</span></div>

anyone with an appreciation of straight-ahead Chicago-style guitar blues
absolutely will love. And it will provide even more proof that the blues is
alive and thriving far beyond the U.S. border. Giba’s delivery is rock-solid
throughout and his guitar playing is always powerful, but never forced. </span>Pick
this one up today. You won’t be disappointed.</span><span style="background-color: white;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Foi no fim da tarde de 23/11/2013...em poucas horas rolaria o
último show da primeira turnê de Jimmy Johnson no Brasil. O trânsito
completamente parado e a preocupação aumentando a cada minuto. Percebendo o meu
nervosismo, Mr. Jimmy Johnson pede calmamente para eu prestar atenção em mais
um de seus ensinamentos, provavelmente destilado em mais de 50 anos de estrada.
Yesterday have came and gone, tomorrow is unknown, ou melhor, ontem veio e se
foi, o amanhã é desconhecido. Eu peço para ele repetir, anoto a frase e
pergunto se poderia usar a frase na letra de uma música. Mr. Johnson concorda,
diz que quer participar da composição e que eu deveria dar um jeito de gravar
isso em estúdio. Essa foi a semente deste cd! Gerada a caminho do Sesc
Belenzinho, com Mr. Jimmy Johnson no banco do passageiro tentando me acalmar
com sua experiência de vida. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">Só que “Tomorrow” também é a minha experiência de vida. Desde
aquele final de tarde, rolou muita inspiração e transpiração. A concepção,
composição e arranjo foi um processo árduo, mas muito prazeroso. Quantas noites
saltando da cama, pois alguma ideia nova havia pintado. Quantas tardes em casa
fazendo a sintonia fina das linhas de baixo, junto com o Fábio Basili. As
inúmeras idas à Orion Cymbals que, através do Paulinho Sorriso, gentilmente
cedeu seu estúdio para o arranjo das partes de bateria. Sem contar as tardes
com o Dado Tristão, que enfrentava sem medo a chuva e o congestionamento
infernal da capital Paulista para transcrição das linhas de teclado e metais. E
não posso me esquecer dos telefonemas pro Mr. Jimmy Johnson, para aquela
inspiração que só ele pode dar... O Edu Gomes foi mais que um produtor, foi um
verdadeiro amigo e mestre, sempre dando o direcionamento certo na hora certa,
com bom gosto e responsabilidade. E, de quebra, as ilustres participações dos
bluesbrothers Adriano Grineberg, Mauricio Sahady e Homesick Hanes. No final de
tudo, a honra de encontrar as portas da Chico Blues Records mais uma vez
abertas. Eu não poderia ter escolhido, ou melhor, ter sido brindado com time
melhor! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Nas 10 faixas, histórias reais como a faixa título e Riverside.
Outras nem tanto, como Wrong Place, Wrong Time e Up For No Good que são
parcerias com Homesick Hanes e a última tem a guitarra inconfundível de
Maurício Sahady. Catch You On The Flipside é gíria que ouço de tantos amigos de
Chicago para dizer que “nos falamos em breve” e que acabou virando um
instrumental. Também há três covers: Heap See, com a participação do próprio
autor, Mr. Jimmy Johnson. She Put The Whammy on Me, de Freddie King, é para
manter a promessa eterna de homenagear o Texas Cannonball e Lord Have Mercy On
Me, uma releitura do clássico de Junior Kimbrough.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
