Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Chicago based blues label Alligator Records, this disc contains live music from Koko Taylor and Her Blues Machine, Lonnie Brooks Blues Band, Elvin Bishop, Katie Webster, and Lil' Ed & The Imperials. This tour is the also basis for the film "Pride And Joy: The Story Of Alligator Records" by Robert Mugge. Recorded on live on Alligator Records' 20th Anniversary Tour, this double disc set is a showcase for the label's artists. Featuring an array of their most popular acts -- Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, Lil' Ed and the Blues Imperials, Elvin Bishop -- the record doesn't deliver any surprises, yet these performances are frequently more exciting than the studio versions. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
