Highlighting trailblazing blues musicians from legendary labels


"... this is a blues essential and I'm glad that Bluesville Records chose to reissue it. What else needs to be said is that if you've never heard a clean original this will sound very good, top to bottom ... the bottom end has more weight that sounds as if it's actually on the tape but was attenuated in the original mastering. So the reissue is a mixed sonic bag, but you can be 100% sure that Mr. Lutthans cutting on the restored TML lathe has gotten the most from the tape." — Music = 9/11; Sound = 7/11 — Michael Fremer, TrackingAngle
