Curtis Salgado "has played a remarkable
but often the unheralded role in the evolution of the modern blues scene." He inspired John Belushi
to create The Blues Brothers. He nicknamed Albert Collins "Master of the Telecaster". He sang second lead with
the Robert Cray Band in its early years.
For a man so well-known-yet-unknown, Curtis Salgado has played with some of the best
in the business. He's established himself as one of the most dynamic and popular singers on
the west coast: He's Oregon's Blues Man Extraordinaire.
