From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
On his feature date well-respected Chicago saxophonist A. C. Reed invites accessibility with humorous lyrics and singing to match. Furthermore, grooves are cut expertly by drummer Calvin Jones and four different bassists, while famous friends Bonnie Raitt and Steve Ray Vaughan add bravura or buoyancy to two and three songs respectively. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993

Customer Reviews

Fantastic!
What we can hear at this record is one of the best solo's work of a musician that played an instrument(sax)so good,that decided to sing songs too.And,what a good surprise!Done it well!So well and with two monsters guested(Bonnie Raitt & Stevie Ray Vaughan),that you do not believe that it was possible! No doubt,one of the best blues records!

Great Blues set from a true original....
I remember buying this gem back in the late 80's while Bonnie
Raitt was an unsigned artist and Stevie Ray was smoking.
A.C. Reed was one one cool sax player, love this whole
collection, rest in peace AC

An Unknown Classic
I first saw A.C. Reed when he was backing Albert Collins, and he was a real standout. Later saw him on his own bill in Denver. A good singer, a humorous lyricist, and a master saxophonist. For REAL blues fans, this is a must have; great appearances by Bonnie Rait and Stevie Ray Vaughn are a plus, as are backups by Casey Jones and Johnny Gayden. You won't regret the purchase, and catch him live if you get the chance.
