One of the best-known, best-selling artists in blues-rock returns to Alligator Records, where he's had his most successful releases. Armed with a razor-sharp guitar attack, supremely soulful singing and a relentless tour schedule, Coco continues to set the gold standard for the genre. His previous three Alligator releases have sold nearly 112,000 worldwide. Hard Truth reaffirms Coco Montoya's place on the top shelf of contemporary rocking bluesmen. From the ecstatic, just-fell-in-love shuffle 'I Want To Shout About It' to the scorching "Hard As Hell" to the patented Albert Collins funk of 'Moon Is Full,' Coco's soul-burning mastery of hard-hitting, long-lasting blues-rock is on full display.
