Title: Ground Zero for Blues Guitar!
Review: This is truly one of the great blues guitar albums of all time. Magic Sam was the first and best of the modern Chicago West Side blues shredders. Although his vocal stylings are a throwback to his delta roots, this album is all about the guitar. Magic Sam is THE link between classic blues like Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, and modern bluesmen like Melvin Taylor, Robert Cray, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan. While this re-release covers no new territory (it's the identical track listing as the original release), the sound quality is significantly improved. Of course, sound quality is not a huge issue on a dirty electric blues album such as this. If you already own the album, this upgrade may not be necessary, but if you don't have this album yet, GET IT NOW! You will not regret it!
