The 1969 self-titled album by Koko Taylor cemented her place as Chicago's undisputed Queen of the Blues. Scouted by Chess Records house bassist and producer Willie Dixon at Chicago's legendary Sylvio's Lounge, Dixon provided his new protégé with "Wang Dang Doodle," a song that would sell more than a million copies and become her signature tune. Drawing heavily from her recent run of hit 45s, Koko Taylor features, in addition to "Wang Dang Doodle," Dixon-penned classics including "Twenty-Nine Ways (To My Baby's Door)" and "Yes, It's Good for You," alongside Taylor's own "Nitty Gritty," highlighted by Johnny Shines' poignant slide guitar. Koko Taylor remains a cornerstone of Chicago electric blues.
