Hubert Sumlin was a guitarist idolized by other guitarists: Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton to name only two. He helped create the template for modern electric guitar playing. But he rarely made albums as a leader and this superb album demonstrates that he had a lot to give.
On this studio set Hubert writes songs, sings in his lived-in voice, plays guitar as only he could and generally shows that he was an all around creative artist.
Sumlin passed away in 2011; he was memorialized by guitar giants from around the world.
