J.B. Hutto - Stompin' At Mother Blues (CD)

The material on this CD was taken from a 1966 session and a 1972 session where master of the slide guitar J.B. Hutto's second Delmark album came from, "Slidewinder" (DMK #636). The '66 session was recorded at Mother Blues, a defunct blues club in Chicago's Old Town section, though not in front of a live audience. Only one of the 12 tracks has ever been issued, and the song "Hip Shakin'" appeared on "Hawk Squat" (DMK #617) - now all 12 songs appear together. J.B. is backed by Herman Hassell on second guitar and Frank Kirkland on drums. 3 previously unissued songs and alternate takes are added from the '72 session with Lee Jackson on second guitar, Elbert Buckner on bass and Bombay Carter on drums. A full hour of stinging Chicago blues!
