From three separate sessions held in Chicago in 1986, 1987, and 1989, this captures
Slim and the Teardrops
at the top of their game. The bulk of this disc emanates from a 1986 session held at the radio station
WRDE
, catching the combo raw and wild on nice readings of
"Mama Talk to Your Daughter,"
"Bad Avenue,"
"Gambler,"
and
"Ain't That Nice."
These tracks are simply loaded with stinging guitar from
Slim
John Primer
and it's
Primer
contributing the lead vocals on
"Think"
"She Moves Me."
A hot session that's pretty representative of their down-home sound. ~ Cub Koda
