"I met Sunnyland Slim
in St. Louis Jimmy's basement rooms where he lived underneath Muddy
Water's house. We had a solid two-day session of blues there, with
singers, guitarists and pianists wandering in, playing for a while until
their places were taken by other visitors. My field recorder was
working overtime as a veritable 'Who's Who' of Chicago blues took part
in the music. …The liqueur flowed and so did the music. John Steiner
recorded it 'as it came' with as little interference with the
informality of the session as was possible; glasses were filled, emptied
and filled again; jibes, shouts and comments went on tape with the
music. The result was 'authentic blues' – the blues and boogie of
Chicago as it was then and is today, played and sung by some of the best
exponents, no holds barred, without fake or 'folk.'”
Informal sessions supervised by Paul Oliver in 1960 that has been released on a variety of labels over the years.
