Buddy And The Juniors (New LP)

Buddy Guy/Junior Wells/Junior Mance – “”Buddy And The Juniors (Verve Acoustic Sounds Series)”” [180g Heavy Vinyl LP] In 1969, guitarist Buddy Guy got together with his old Chicago blues pal Junior Wells, added in jazz pianist Junior Mance, and cut a loose for an “”unplugged”” session for Blue Thumb Records that would become the now-legendary album, Buddy And The Juniors. Buddy and the two Juniors were relaxed, cutting familiar tunes like Willie Dixon’s “”Hoochie Coochie Man”” and their own off-the-cuff originals, including “”Buddy’s Blues.”” Additionally, two improvised tracks were recorded in a single burst of creative energy: “”Riffin'”” and “”Talkin’ ‘Bout Women Obviously,”” all making for a fresh, inviting and inspiring album. Verve’s Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
