Picked up a near minty copy dirt cheap ($7) on Discogs of this 1977 Blue Sky Records (CBS) recording. Winters was producing Muddy Waters trilogy for Blue Sky at the time ( Hard Again; I'm Ready; King Bee). This is pure blues - Johnny Winters style - with a legendary lineup including Muddy Waters, James Cotton on harmonica and Pinetop Perkins on piano. Absolutely one of his best ever. Recording quality on this original is quite good - mastered at Sterling Sound.
