For Real finds Joe Beard fronting a blues dream team consisting of the great guitar stylist Duke Robillard along with Bruce Katz, Per Hanson and Rod Carey. Jerry Portnoy, known for his awesome harp work with Muddy Waters and Eric Clapton, joins in on four of the tracks. For Real is a potent combination of Beard originals and homages to Joe's main men, Lightnin Hopkins and John Lee Hooker. Listen. Joe Beard is For Real!
