Backed by an incredibly potent rhythm section featuring pianist Otis Spann, the Chicago blues virtuoso delivered one of the defining records of his early career. His blistering, fiercely emotional guitar work and impassioned vocals elevate traditional blues structures into the deeply expressive territory of contemporary soul.
