Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in a purely acoustic setting, this intimate collaboration paired three undisputed titans of American blues and jazz in an unvarnished studio session. The raw, incredibly dynamic interplay between Buddy Guy's stinging acoustic guitar, Junior Wells' expressive harmonica, and Junior Mance's rolling piano is mesmerizing. The record provides a deeply authentic, laid-back glimpse into their unparalleled instrumental chemistry.
