  MINNEAPOLIS, MN, May 18 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
After more than 30 years, the esteemed duo of John Koerner and Tony
Glover are back with a new album. "Koerner and Glover: Live @ The 400
Bar" is set for release on June 2, 2009.

    Koerner and Glover started playing together in 1962 when they met as
students at the University of Minnesota. Along with Dave Ray, the trio
Koerner, Ray & Glover made five seminal folk blues albums for Elektra in
the mid-1960s, hitting the festival and folk club circuit. It was there
that they met Bob Dylan on his first visit to the Ten O'Clock Scholar
Club, influencing him and others such as Bonnie Raitt.

    Geographies and musical tastes diverged -- Koerner spent more time on the
East Coast, while Ray & Glover teamed up over their zeal for deep blues in
the Midwest.

    Koerner later "quit music" and moved to Denmark for a spell, and when he
returned to the U.S. his repertoire was all traditional folk tunes.

    Following Ray's death on Thanksgiving morning 2002, Koerner and Glover
played occasional duo gigs, including a several month residency at an old
stomping ground on the Minneapolis West Bank, The 400 Bar.

    This album comes from two of those gigs in January 2006.

    CC Entertainment is a Minneapolis-based record label distributing "Koerner
and Glover: Live @ The 400 Bar" through E1 Entertainment.
