Curtis Salgado's achievements as a rhythm and blues vocalist, harmonica player, and songwriter have won accolades from across the music world and helped inspire a cult classic. His powerhouse live shows and championing of the blues long ago made him an essential figure in Oregon's unsung but vibrant music scene.

In this memoir, Salgado shares stories of his career against the backdrop of encounters with music legends, the Oregon scene's cultural heyday, and his journey to overcome addiction and life-threatening health challenges. His poignant and at times humorous stories of touring and playing with artists like Robert Cray, Muddy Waters, Cab Calloway, and Stevie Ray Vaughan fuse with an invitation to embrace the blues and soul music that shaped his life and help define America.

Walk a Mile in My Blues shares the hidden and heartfelt story of a musical legend, living and loving the blues.
