MAGIC SLIM & THE TEAR DROPS<br />
Midnight Blues<br />
(BLIND PIG 5125)<br />
Produced by Nick Moss. With special guests<br />
James Cotton, Elvin Bishop, Lil Ed Williams, Lonnie Brooks<br />
and Otis Clay.<br />
Morris Holt (aka) Magic Slim was born in Torrence,<br />
Mississippi on August 3rd 1937. Magic Slim was<br />
eventually given his nickname by the late great Magic<br />
Sam, whom he had traveled with to Chicago. Slim is<br />
keeping the Chicago Blues sound and feel alive on<br />
his latest release with covers of classic Muddy Waters<br />
and Magic Sam songs as well as fine originals. Check<br />
out the country Blues number, “Goin’ Down The Road<br />
Feelin’ Bad”. If you haven’t experienced Magic Slim<br />
live then you’re missing out on one of the last great<br />
Chicago Bluesmen.<br />

LITTLE WALTER<br />
Blowin’ The Blues<br />
(BLUES BOULEVARD 250169)<br />
Featuring Otis Rush, Willie Dixon, Jimmy Rogers, Muddy<br />
Waters, Johnny Shines, Fred Below, Bo Diddley & more!<br />
Marion Walter Jacobs (aka) Little Walter was born in<br />
Marksville, La on May 1, 1930 and died on February<br />
15, 1968 in Chicago. Little Walter made his first<br />
recordings in 1947 for the Ora-Nelle record label,<br />
which was operated out the back of a record store in<br />
the heart of the legendary Maxwell Street in Chicago.<br />
These recording were made before he had joined<br />
Muddy Waters' band. Little Walter revolutionized the<br />
way Blues harmonica could be played by using a<br />
microphone and plugging it in into an electric guitar<br />
amplifier thus creating loud distorted sounds with<br />
controlled feedback effects. Walter continued to<br />
record with Muddy Waters and appeared as a harmonica<br />
sideman with many Bluesmen on the Maxwell<br />
Street scene including Johnny Young, Floyd Jones and<br />
Robert Nighthawk. Walter toured Europe in 1964 and<br />
1967 before dying of complications from a fight that<br />
occurred during a break at a south side club in Chicago.<br />
This 3-CD set Blowin' the Blues contains 2 discs with<br />
40 tracks under Walter’s leadership, and a third disc<br />
with another 20 tracks of Walter as a sideman with<br />
Muddy Waters, John Brim, Johnny Shines, Jimmy<br />
Rogers and Otis Spann. This CD set is essential for<br />
the ultimate Little Walter listening experience.<br />
