Cell Phone Man Willie Buck

Honorary Blues Legend Willie Buck Way is the name of a street in Chicago named after Delmark recording artist Willie Buck. Cell Phone Man, Buck's previous album (released October, 2012), debuted on Living Blues Radio Chart in the #1 position in the December issue along with an eight page feature story and a glowing album review. Willie Buck Way features seventeen songs of which twelve are new Buck originals. 'His vocals are sinewy and expressive (he demonstrates a powerful upper range that even a lot of his longtime fans will find surprising) postwar Chicago blues have long been, and remain, a contemporary music to him, and he delivers them with both urgency and élan.
