The classic album of modern blues by guitarist/vocalist Magic Sam, who is joined by fellow guitarist Mighty Joe Young for blistering blues and soul influenced tunes.
Sam's singing and playing have their roots deeply implanted in the Mississippi soil of his youth as well as in the traumatic everyday life of the raw West Side. But like all good blues and all great art, he reaches far beyond his ethnic origins and his everyday experiences and speaks for us all. That is why you will like this album regardless of your previous taste if you are reasonably "aware," "hip," "turned-on" or whatever your generation's slang may be for being in touch with humanity and life.
