A long overdue reissuing of this curious 1970 collaboration between guitarist Buddy Guy, harp player Junior Wells, and jazz pianist Junior Mance. The trio run through barely half-a-dozen numbers, including such standard blues warhorses as Willie Dixon's classic "(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man," "Rock Me Mama," and Wells' "Ain't No Need." Not a classic recording, I'm told, but I'd still like to hear Guy bang away on his acoustic alongside Mance's bebop keyboard kicks (and, of course, Wells' incendiary harmonica). (Release date: 06/28/11)
-------------------
This is deep down dirty blues as it was sung and played 100 years ago and will be sung and played forever! Get this album!
------------------------------
Players of instruments: Buddy Guy, acoustic guitar, Junior Wells, mouthharp, Junior Mance, barrelhouse piano.
Reason for session: pay for Buddy Guy's trip to New York City to mix an album for another label!
Result: ASTONISHING!

To think of all of where came from. One day. One guitar. One piano. And one harp.
