Hell YES!! Junior Wells, awesome, I’m not ashamEd to say that I discovered Messin’ With The Kid from Briefcase Full Of Blues, which was the entire POINT of The Blues Bros, they were doing for the blues guys they loved the same exact thing Cobain was doing in the early-nineties, he didn’t understand why so may people loved HIS music when there was so much “better” music in his record/tape/cd collection, and he so badly wanted to share that with the world…Call it Musical Colonialism if you want, don’t matter, it’s all just sounds coming out of a speaker. If it moves you, it’s good.

Anyway, The Blues Bros at least hired a freakin AMAZING BAND, and even if the covers on BFoB are good due to the simple fact those guys could fuckin PLAY (yes, the F word is necessary, don’t like it?, FUCK OFF, milquetoast), the very fact that that album pushed people to discover artists like Junior Wells and Floyd Dixon and Delbert McClinton makes it an unqualified success, all the musical and film “sequels” notwithstanding…

At the end of it all id be surprised if you didnt consider him one of the greats as i do now. Arguably the most underappreciated artist ever; He should be in the same conversation as Hendrix, Page, Clapton in my opinion.

This is on Buddy Guy & Junior Wells: "Drinkin' TNT and Smokin' Dynamite" live at 1974 Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland--which is one of my all time top five fave live recordings along wtih J Geils "Full House" and Etta James "Burning Down the House" backed by the Roots band at House of Blue 1994. Get 'em before you dead Jack. How great to finally discover a video of them actually doing the song that was recorded and on the CD--I even have the vinyl disc too-the one disc I borrowed to record on tape and it never went back to its owner-(sorry Bruce from the B&B in Oshkosh about 1983!) Buddy and Junior at the top of their game. And Bill Wyman and Pinetop Perkins in the band for this. They did a another Live at the Montreau Jazz Festival with Hubert Sumlin in the band with them a couple year later that is almost as good--great cover of "Help Me" with Junior ont the vocals. KB
