Bloodkin - Good Luck Charm

30 Year Anniversary Edition Double Pearl Vinyl or CD

Remastered with 4 Bonus Tracks!

Making this first "official" record was our real-world equivalent of going to school. An education money can't buy. We worked with the legendary producer Johnny Sandlin (whose credits include the Allman Brothers, Eddie Hinton, and so many more), at his home studio in Decatur, Alabama. We stayed for weeks at a time in a little condo he supplied for his bands, and jumped in the deep end of the Recording Studio pool. Didn't come up for air for long stretches of time...it was a new experience, strange and exciting, and sometimes tedious, too...all the highs and lows. And like I said, it was school. Johnny taught us how to do it. It was a rare privilege.
-Daniel Hutchens - original release September 12, 1994
