They have finally done it!! Delmark has released Hoodoo Man Blues which is considered by most blues aficionados to be one of the best blues recordings of all time. Now I know if you're like me you already have the original vinyl but this is that and much more. This release has an additional 14 tracks and really puts you into the studio. Recorded in 1965 it was the first studio recording to capture a working Chicago blues band doing their stage show without time constraints of the "singles" market. I mean the holy grail...Buddy Guy and Junior Wells in original form with Jack Myers on Bass and Billy Warren on Drums!! This new digipak re-issue contains 17 performances including 3 alternate takes and 4 never before released performances. There is one completely unissued song, " I Ain't Stranded", in which Buddy playing through a Leslie speaker has influenced guitarists through the time and still today! Also included is a 16 page booklet containing eight never before published photos from the session.
