Product Details
Memphis radio legend, Stax Records veteran, and the man who kept Beale Street's pulse beating for decades, Rufus Thomas was already in his early seventies when he cut this record for Alligator. The fact that a performer so synonymous with funk and novelty soul dove deep into straight blues here makes it a genuine curiosity in his long catalog, and the musicians around him were more than up to the task.
The funky godfather of R&B's only all-blues recording. Soul, swaggering and strutting vocals plus outstanding playing by Kenny Neal, Lucky Peterson and Noble "Thin Man" Watts.
