Exclusively Remastered on 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl!
Chicago Bluesman Willie Dixon was perhaps best known for his songwriting. He wrote or co-wrote more than 500 songs and his songs have been recorded by some of the best-known blues musicians of his era, including Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, and Buddy Guy.
Later, his songs were popularized by groups, such as The Rolling Stones, The Doors, Cream, and Led Zeppelin. On this 1970 LP, the quintessential blues songwriter performs his own tunes every one a classic: "I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man," "The Little Red Rooster," "Spoonful," and of course "Back Door Man" to name a few!
Long overdue, this album was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1986; whereas Willie Dixon was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.
