Coco Montoya - names of some of his albums: Gotta Mind to Travel, Ya think I'd know better, Just let go, Suspicion, Can't look back and Dirty Deal. He is a wonderful blues guitarist. I love his music.
I've only caught bits and pieces of Coco over the years, but I love his playing. Can you fans send me a message/comment and advise me which of his albums are the best, or where to start? Thanks. Take care. -dave
i've been looking for a video (or sound clip) on the net of a song of his that's something like "gotta real bad habit of running away from love"... any body know of this clip thats available?
I find the thing that puts Coco ahead of most blues guitarists of his calibre, is the fact that his songs are not run-of-the-mill twelve bar blues; they're actually unique and often quite complicated.
A little common man philosophy. BLues is life and life is blues. From the richest man to the man down and out. It is a human truth. Your free to use this proverb, but don't forget it's beginning and start from the words of a fellow human. THats all.

CoCo is one the best bluesman out there. Of course he learned from one the best- Albert Collins.

Check out Albert King. Coco's got better style, but they both play the same upside down guitar.

Along with Otis Rush & Albert King, Doyle Bramhall II also plays lefty with the strings upside down :-)
