Description
Recorded in January of 1977 at Montreals legendary Rising Sun Celebrity Jazz Club, the record features some of Muddys greatest bandmates, including Luther Guitar Junior Johnson and Steady Rollin Bob Margolin on guitar, Jerry Portnoy on harmonica, Pinetop Perkins on piano, along with Calvin Jones on bass and Willie Smith on drums. The band are terrific throughout which is why it is no surprise that they, like many others, went on to have outside recognition after playing with Muddys band. The standout track is an 11 minute version of the classic, Kansas City, in which Muddy shares vocals with Perkins. This rare recording captures the raw and electric intensity of the small club with Muddys commanding voice front and centre.
