JOHN LITTLE JOHN
with LARRY BURTON guitar, AARON BURTON or ANDREW McMAHON bass, CANDY UTAH drums
John Littlejohn's stunning mastery of the slide guitar somehow never launched him
into the major leagues of bluesdom. Only on a handful of occasions was the Chicago
veteran's vicious bottleneck attack captured effectively on wax, but anyone who
experienced one of his late-night sessions as a special musical guest on the
Windy City circuit will never forget the crashing passion in his delivery
"DREAM"

RECORD NEAR MINT but (please, also read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Recorded live on the West Side of Chicago in 1976, this disc is an excellent document
of Littlejohn's live show. What his husky, passionate vocal delivery lacks in grace,
it makes up in honesty. And his guitar and slide playing are both strong.
Much of the disc focuses on slow blues weepers, with the exception of a few jump tunes,
like Littlejohn's own "Kiddeo." A smoky, deep-blue piece of work...(AllMusic)
