Personnel:
David 'Honeyboy' Edwards (vocals, guitar, harmonica)
Eddie El (guitar)
Walter Horton (harmonica)
Notes: This fine solo project features Edwards recorded down in Bruce Iglauer's cellar in 1974. On "Sad & Lonesome," "Take Me in Your Arms," "I Feel So Good Today," and "Big Road Blues," Edwards is backed by Big Walter Horton on amplified harmonica while Honeyboy plays electric guitar. On "Ride With Me Tonight," "Things Have Changed," and "The Woman I'm Loving," Honeyboy's idiosyncratic timing is helped out by the addition of Eddie El on second guitar. A very solid session by this seldom-recorded artist. ~ Cub Koda
Recorded at Gator Basement Studios, Chicago, Illinois between 1974 and 1977. Originally released on Trix (3319). Includes liner notes by Pete Lowry, Amy O'Neal and Steve Schoen.
