Cutis Salgado
Waterfront Blues Festival
Portland, OR.
July 4, 2016

I'm in the process of moving after 36 years in the same house an am not going to be able to record as much this year. I'll try to get all the major acts and some favorites I've had over the years. Again, KBOO FM is broadcasting the show live. KBOO is an all volunteer station. They started last year breaking in at odd times to let listeners know what stations are broadcasting. Weird. All proceeds from the festival go to the Oregon Food Bank so please donate if you can. They also have a live stream on the internet. It's an MP3 stream. My set up is an old Technics Quartz Tuner> H2 Zoom> SD card> computer> TLH.

Curtis Salgado closes out tghe festival again this year. He has been touring and promoting his new CD and plays 6 or 7 tunes off that CD here. Awesome show.

With a career spanning forty years, award-winning soul, blues and R&B vocalist/harmonicist/songwriter CURTIS SALGADO is a one-of-a-kind talent whose music is as compelling as his story. From co-fronting The Robert Cray Band, to leading his own band (and recording nine solo albums), to helping transform John Belushi into �Joliet� Jake Blues of the Blues Brothers, to touring the country with Steve Miller and Santana, he is a true musical giant. NPR calls him �a blues icon� with a �huge voice.�

SALGADO earned a reputation for high-intensity performances and a repertoire inspired by his encyclopedic knowledge of soul, blues and R&B music. He won the 2010 Blues Music Award (BMA) for Soul Blues Artist Of The Year and went on to win the award again in 2012 and 2013. In 2013 he also won the coveted BMA for B.B. King Entertainer Of The Year�the highest honor the blues world has to offer�and took the statue for Soul Blues Album Of The Year for his Alligator debut, SOUL SHOT. BLUES REVUE says Salgado�s music is �triumphant, joyful, blues-soaked R&B� and declared him to be �one of the most soulful, honest singers ever.�
