Blues legend Mike Finnigan takes the spotlight this Friday with the release of “My Credit Didn’t Go Through” via Forty Below Records. This high energy track serves as a preview for the upcoming self-titled posthumous album ‘Mike Finnigan’ scheduled for arrival on March 20. Originally written by General Johnson and Greg Perry for The Chairmen of the Board, the song features a robust arrangement produced by J.J. Blair. The studio band for this session includes Stephen Stills, Chris Stills, and James Gadson alongside bassist Bob Glaub and guitarists Val McCallum and Josh Sklair.
The upcoming eleven track collection highlights Finnigan as a formidable vocalist and band leader through a series of collaborations with iconic peers. Listeners find Smokey Robinson joining for a rendition of “The Way You Do The Things You Do” while Joe Bonamassa contributes to “20 Years of B.B. King.” The tracklist moves from the soul of Curtis Mayfield on “A Fool For You” to the reimagined country of Merle Haggard on “Sing Me Back Home.”
