This relaxed, rather informal August 15, 1963 session is one of Jimmy Witherspoon's rarest and was the only time that the great Arkansas shouter recorded with T-Bone Walker, the Texas-born father of electric blues guitar. In an unusual appearance as a sideman, Walker contributed his trademark brittle-tone solos, obbligatos, and from the five intro to a set of tunes that included such standards as Money's Gettin' Cheaper (a 'Spoon favorite since he borrowed it from Charles Brown in the late Forties), How Long Blues, Good Rockin' Tonight, Kansas City, and Don't Let Go.
Selections: Money's Gettin' Cheaper, Grab Me A Freight, Don't Let Go!, I've Been Treated Wrong, Evenin', Cane River, Baby How Long, Good Rocking, Kansas City, Drinking Beer.
