Recorded in 1967

Listen to Otis on his cover of James Brown's "I Feel Good" and although the vocal line sounds similar, he and his guitar have made it his own song. Even without the Godfather's large band behind him, Otis is able to fill all the space required by the song with just his guitar

By 1967 Little Walter was feeling the effects of his alcoholism and was not the player he used to be (he would die in 1968 as the result of injuries sustained during a drunken street brawl) but he could still find his way around the harp. To listen to him trade solos with Otis is to hear an old master at work.

Again the sound quality isn't the best on this recording, in fact it might even be marginally worse than the earlier tracks, but it still isn't enough to detract from the marvellous performances of such classics like "Going Down Slow" and "Lovin' You All The Time".

Chicago Blues Festival provides a unique opportunity to hear and compare two of the best harp and guitar combos that the Blues had produced up until that time. After listening to this disc I know that I wouldn't want to be the one asked to decide between the two duos as to which was "better'' than the other. Such a delineation isn't possible when you get up into the stratosphere where these guys existed.

Just sit back and enjoy the music, and don't ask any questions or try to come to any conclusions. Sometimes thinking can only get in the way of enjoyment and this is one of those times. Besides the blues are all about emotions anyway, so what are you doing thinking for?
