His place on the honor roll of Chicago blues harpists long ago assured, Carey Bell truly came
into his own in the '90s as a bandleader with terrific discs for Alligator and Blind Pig.
He learned his distinctive harmonica riffs from the Windy City's very best (both Walters -- Little and Big --
as well as Sonny Boy Williamson II), adding his own signature effects for good measure
(an otherworldly moan immediately identifies many of his more memorable harp rides)

It's a mite ragged around the edges, but Bell's 1969 debut session certainly sports the proper
ambience -- and no wonder, with guitarists Eddie Taylor and Jimmy Dawkins and pianist Pinetop Perkins
on hand to help out. No less than four Little Walter covers and two more from Muddy Waters'
songbook dot the set, but many of the best moments occur on the original numbers...(AllMusic)
