Product Notes

Mississippi native Albert Luandrew, better known as blues pianist and vocalist Sunnyland Slim, first came into prominence in Chicago in the late 1940's fronting a band that included Muddy Waters on guitar. Early in 1954 he cut these four classic tracks for Al Benson's Parrot label subsidiary Blue Lake, which are among the best rare blues tracks of a career which spanned almost five decades. The musicians supporting Slim's piano and vocals on these sessions are thought to be Snooky Pryor on harmonica; Floyd Jones and Eddie Taylor on guitars for "Goin' Back to Memphis" and "Devil Is a Busy Man". Same lineup minus Pryor is featured on "Bassology" and "Shake It Baby" with the addition of Big Crawford on bass and an unknown harp player. Classic sides, newly remastered.
