Rock n' Roll pioneer Dion DiMucci's new album, Blues With Friends, has hit Number One on both the Billboard Blues Albums, and iTunes Blues Albums charts. The set, which was released earlier this month, has also topped the UK's Official Jazz & Blues Albums chart.
Joining the Bronx legend for the set are such heavyweights as Bruce Springsteen & Patti Scialfa, Paul Simon, Jeff Beck, Van Morrison, Brian Setzer, Steve Van Zandt, Joe Bonamassa, and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons
The album was issued via Bonamassa's new Keeping The Blues Alive Records imprint, which is an offshoot of Keeping The Blues Alive Foundation, Bonamassa’s non-profit that aims to conserve the art of music and the rich culture and history of the blues.
