Mighty Joe Young

Description:

World's first straight reissue in the original jacket of the 1974 "Ovation" disc, considered a hidden masterpiece of Chicago funky blues! Includes 4 tracks never before released on CD! Starting with the title track, which was a hit for Bobby Rush in 1971, M3, which was also featured by Albert King, and M10, which is like "Born Under A Bad Sigh", all of them have the smell of 70's funky blues. The medium M5 in particular has a groove that comes on strong, and the upbeat M9 is the best! The groove created by Lewis Satterfield (b), who played on Muddy's "Electric Mud" and "After The Rain" at the time, and Ira Gates (ds), who played backup for Jerry Butler and Little Milton, is the heart of this album.Floyd Morris, known for his participation in Junior Wells' "You're Tuff Enough" and later EW&F-related work, adds piano, organ, and clavi, and Mighty Joe goes on a rampage with Ron Steele's sharp side guitar!
