Produced by Daniel Castro and Lee Parvin

"The day we made this record was special. The vibe in the room was unbelievable. The fans knew something extraordinary was happening. As the night went on the crowd got stronger, and began feeding the band with support. Becoming an integral part off the outcome, like a fifth member of the band. That's when we all knew we were in for something very special."

This record was made for our fans and friends. Lee Parvin and I wanted to record a CD that would be an authentic representation of what this band does live. No set list. It wasn't easy trying to choos from over seven hours of music, that's why this is a 2 CD set. It was a lot of work and at the end of the night everyone was exhausted - but we all had a ball. I hope you enjoy it" - Daniel Castro

No Surrender (Debut CD)
No Surrender is the much requested debut recording from Daniel Castro. This ia a collection of eleven songs containing six original and five cover tunes that Daniel has infused with his own style. The CD opens with the grooving "On That Telephone" then lets you down easy with the final cut, "Dos Palomas", a tribute to his mother.
"A stunning new CD available from Bay Area bluesman Daniel Castro.' There is not a weak cut among the eleven that rock this remarkable effort and if you ain't impressed with Castro's vocals, songwriting, and electrifying guitar work, Jack, you dead. Run, don't walk, to the Post Office to mail away for your copy. I dare you to keep it out of your player. You'll be saying 'why haven't I heard of this guy before?' Well, you just did!"

--Joseph Jordan, Southland Blues		 "Daniel Castro Band. Inspired by B.B. King, Albert Collins, and especially Albert King, singer-guitarist Castro takes a scorching, no-holds-barred approach to the blues. Besides some tough original tunes, the disc includes imaginative reworkings of such standards as 'Got My Mojo Working,' 'Drivin' Wheel,' and 'I'll Play the Blues for You.'"


--Lee Hildebrandt, Oakland East Bay Express
