  • Description

    Byther Smith, a fiery spark plug of a man, steps to the microphone, and in a full, gospel-drenched voice, barks the lyrics to Otis Rush's 'Keep On Lovin' Me Baby' like commands - Niles Frantz on Byther Smith at Koko Taylor's Chicago Blues Club in January 1996.

    The definitive overview of one of the most intense and hard playing Chicago Blues guitarists of the past few decades. The set commences with his classic studio album 'Addressing The Nation With The Blues' cut at Chicago's Soto Sound studio. The second CD features all of Byther's ultra rare pre-fame 45s, some of them stone collectors items and finishes with some very funky live club tracks.
