Product Description ------------------- This CD is a collection of Junior's first s and includes collaborations from 1953 - 54 with Muddy Waters, Elmore James, the Aces with Louis and Dave Myers, Willie Dixon and others. It contains Junior's first of the song "Hoodoo Man Blues" plus 5 bonus tracks. .com ---- The long-overdue release of this seminal collection on CD is cause for celebration; not only that, but Delmark Records added four previously unreleased tracks, making this CD all the more essential for harp fans in general and Junior Wells fans in particular (and what harp fan could not like Wells?). The tracks on Blues Hit Big Town were recorded in 1953-54 and are thus of historical interest as well; these are Wells's first s, done shortly after he joined the Muddy Waters Band. From the slow, smoking "Hoodoo Man" and the title track, to the tight, high-powered "Cut That Out" and "Tomorrow Night," everything here is first-rate, and the added bonus tracks make this re-release a special treat. --Genevieve Williams P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Review ------ ...[This] CD incarnation of Blues Hit Big Town, containing the entirety of Junior Wells' two seminal 1953-'54 sessions for Leonard Allen's States logo.
