Liner notes to accompany the Stony Plain Records musical release "Rollin' With The Blues Boss" by the blues pianist Kenny 'Blues Boss' Wayne, released on 22 April 2014.Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne is one of the busiest artists in the international blues community. With special guests Eric Bibb and Diuna Greenleaf, Kenny hammers out rockin’ boogie woogie, deeply felt blues, and puts a fresh coat of paint on good old-fashioned roots rock and roll. A multiple award winner, he is a monster pianist, and soulful singer, who captures the essence of old school blues and boogie while sounding totally fresh and contempory."There's no boogie-woogie-blues piano man out there today who pounds the 88's with his conviction." - Chicago Sun-TimesBuy the CD at: http://www.stonyplainrecords.com/bluesbossor download from iTunes:North America: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/rollin-with-the-blues-boss/id857583549?uo=4&at=11l5bmRest of World: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/rollin-with-the-blues-boss/id828254264?uo=4&at=11l5bm

    Id like to thank all of my musical friends who helped

    to make this recording quick and easy and very reward-

    ing for me. You are definitely the kind of musicians that

    anyone can count on. All of you are very talented, thank

    you again. Thank you very much to my wife Karen who

    has been very supportive with my musical career for

    many years.

    A special thanks to Holger Petersen of Stony Plain

    Records for releasing this album and believing in my

    songs and musical abilities.

    Id like to give a big thanks to Eric Bibb and

    Diunna Greenleaf for their wonderful contributions

    on this recording.

    I cant explain how fortunate I am to have a personal

    manager like Rick Bates (Bates Meyer Inc.) who has

    been working with me for many years and we have

    many more years to go.

    Another special thanks goes out to Tom Lavin who put

    tons of his own time to help make this recording a suc-

    cess and one that he is proud of himself.

    God Bless all of you, Kenny Blues Boss Wayne

    Id like to thank all of my musical friends who helped to make this recording quick and easy and very reward-ing for me. You are definitely the kind of musicians that anyone can count on. All of you are very talented, thank you again. Thank you very much to my wife Karen who has been very supportive with my musical career for many years.A special thanks to Holger Petersen of Stony Plain Records for releasing this album and believing in my songs and musical abilities. Id like to give a big thanks to Eric Bibb and Diunna Greenleaf for their wonderful contributions on this recording. I cant explain how fortunate I am to have a personal manager like Rick Bates (Bates Meyer Inc.) who has been working with me for many years and we have many more years to go. Another special thanks goes out to Tom Lavin who put tons of his own time to help make this recording a suc-cess and one that he is proud of himself. God Bless all of you, Kenny Blues Boss Wayne
