Review by Cub Koda.... The first volume in the groundbreaking, definitive series Chicago: The Blues Today! contains selections from J.B. Hutto, Junior Wells and Otis Spann. All three contribute stellar performances, but for Hutto it's truly the place to start, because it doesn't get much better than this; "Too Much Alcohol," "Please Help," "Going Ahead" and "That's The Truth" are all classics, and Hutto is in perfect form throughout, with swinging support from the Turner's Blue Lounge version of the Hawks, bass-rhythm guitarist Herman Hassell and former Bo Diddley drummer Frank Kirkland. Sound is crystal clear...SIDE ONE: 1 Help Me (A Tribute to Sonny Boy Williamson)... 2 It Hurts Me Too (When Things Go Wrong).... 3 Messin' With the Kid... 4 Vietcong Blues... 5 All Night Long (Rock Me Baby)... Performed by: Junior Wells Chicago Blues Band... 6 Going Ahead... 7 Please Help... SIDE TWO: 8 Too Much Alcohol... 9 Married Woman Blues... 10 That's the Truth...Performed by: J.B. Hutto and his Hawks... 11 Marie... 12 Burning Fire... 13 S. P. Blues... 14 Sometimes I Wonder... 15 Spann's Stomp...Performed by: Otis Spann's South Side Piano
