DESCRIPTION:
Bobby Radcliff is one of the relatively obscure NYC blues guitar players, but a legend just the same. Man, can this guy play the blues, whether acoustic or electric, recalling the days of Magic Sam, a legend he sought out 40 years ago in Chicago. Inspiration!

Here's a couple songs from his nearly 3-hr set at Terra Blues in NYC on March 12, 2016. Bobby plays regularly at this intimate blues club located in the Village: http://www.terrablues.com/

From Wiki...

Bobby Radcliff (born Robert Radcliff Ewan, September 22, 1951, Washington, D.C.) is an American blues guitarist and singer.

Radcliff was raised in Bethesda, Maryland, where he played in blues clubs after picking up the guitar at the age of 12. He also visited Chicago several times, where he met musicians such as Magic Sam. In 1977, he relocated to New York, where he took a job in a bookstore and played local clubs at night. In 1987 he began recording and performing full-time. His first studio recording was in 1985, and from 1989-1998 he recorded with Black Top Records.

Radcliff underwent hand and arm surgery in the late 1990s making minimal live appearances. In 2004 he released 'Natural Ball' (Rollo Records) and made a return to international performing. In 2011, he recorded "Freaking Me Out" (Krellno Records) which was his first all originals CD. This CD also features Radcliff's original artwork (on the front cover and inside).

Radcliff remains active as a bandleader and in demand guitarist. He has recently guested with: Al Copley's Roomful of Blues Reunion Band, The Nighthawks, Bob Margolin's All Star Band, Jimmy 'Fast Fingers' Dawkins, Mark Hummel & Rusty Zinn, and Bruce Ewan.
