REVIEW

“Musselwhite's biting lines, dramatic singing style and overall colorful stage presence have made him a star among fans who flocked to him in the '60s and '70s. Half of the 14 songs were included on Takin' My Time with the rest taken from Goin' Back Down South. Both are excellent sets. The former includes sparkling guitar support from Robben Ford while the latter boasts the always formidable piano of Lafayette Leake. Musselwhite covers anthems from Little Walter, Willie Dixon, and Johnny Young, but he also does several originals, among them 'Up and Down the Avenue,' 'On the Spot Boogie,' and 'Highway Blues.' His voice has deepened some since the early '70s when these were recorded, but his booming harmonica licks are still easily identifiable”

(Ron Wynn — Living Blues)
