"Chicago guitarist-singer John Primer (...) combined forces with Phoenix-based harp player Bob Corritore for this rewarding set of not so obvious repertory ... The two musicians, along with pianist Barrelhouse Chuck and others, subscribe to the notion of Chaicago blues as a vibrant entity rather than a museum relic".

"This set finds Primer in as traditionalist a setting as he's ever inhabited - his sidemen (...) represents a virtual "who's who" of roots-blues torch carriers. But they pour such emotional immediacy into every note that they eliminate any danger of "museum-piece" fustiness".
