A prominent member of Chess’ house band who elevated the recordings of Muddy Waters, Little Walter came into his own as a frontman with a unique, amplified approach to the harmonica - arguably doing for the blues harp what Chuck Berry or Jimi Hendrix did for the electric guitar. This must-hear collection offers a dozen of his greatest singles, including the No. 1 R&B hits “Juke” and “My Babe,” “Mean Old World,” “Blues with a Feeling” and more, plus original liner notes by legendary Chicago historian Studs Terkel.
