Down Home Shakedown

Incredible session from 1965. Big Mama Thornton performs her hit from 1952, Hound Dog.
Spiced up with real slow cooked barbecue hot sauce guitar by Buddy Guy, the past, the present and future grand master! Then it segues into a harmonica jam with Little Walter and Big Mama.
When she starts swinging that purse...honey, you know you have to just duck and cover!

They just don't do this any more - this type of music evolved - it wasn't produced.
thanks
