Read what the Blues Experts are saying about MOTU:
“Interpretive, talented and visionary are all words that can be applied to the stringed fluency of Motu. His playing is fluid, articulate and ripe with personality. His unique feel, style and breadth are well worth the trip to which these audiences can readily attest. The Blues Lives!”
-The Long Island Blues Society

Recorded at the historic Electric Ladyland Studios in New York City, this new CD of MOTU's music again demonstrates the versatility, and skill, of guitarist Dr. Richard Michelson.
