Performer: Snooks Eaglin
Engineer: David Farrell; Jay Gallagher Producer: Hammond Scott Distributor: Infinity Entertainment Gr Notes: Personnel: Snooks Eaglin (vocals, guitar); Grady Gaines (tenor saxophone); Keith Winking (trumpet); Sammy Berfect (piano, organ); Herman V. Ernest III (drums, percussion). Audio Mixers: David Farrell ; Hammond Scott. Liner Note Author: Geraldine Wyckoff. Recording information: New Orleans, LA (1990); Ultrasonic Studios, New Orleans (1990); New Orleans, LA (1991); Ultrasonic Studios, New Orleans (1991). Photographer: Brian Ashley-White. The best of Eaglin's terrific series of Black Top efforts so far -- song selection is absolutely unassailable (lots of savage New Orleans covers, from Lloyd Price and Professor Longhair to Willie Tee and Earl King), the band simmers and sizzles with spicy second-line fire (bassist George Porter, Jr. and drummer Herman Ernest III are a formidable pair indeed), and Eaglin's churchy, commanding vocals and blistering guitar work are nothing short of mind-boggling throughout the entire disc. ~ Bill Dahl
Living Blues (Sept.-Oct./92, p.57) - "..[Eaglin's] endlessly inventive fretwork and gospel-hued vocals are the stuff that true legend is made of...consistently invigorating...Without a doubt the hottest contemporary blues album so far this year.."
