"In 2017, Kim Wilson recorded what he said was the first in a series of tributes to his R&B heroes. Blues and Boogie Volume 1 did just that, but a follow-up never materialized... till now. Although not officially linked to his first outing, the principle of Take Me Back: The Bigtone Sessions is the same: present vintage blues as realistically as possible, utilizing the same technology that the original artists recorded with. But it's done so well that the mono recordings here resonate better than any modern sound. Utilizing most of the same players that appeared on the 2017 disc, Wilson creates a vintage vibe that never sounds dated, blowing fresh air into obscure classics as well as presenting some of his own that fit in so well you'd never know they weren't old-school gems".

"This is not about breaking new ground but rather, giving us a good adult taste of what authentic blues should sound like. These musicians are so natural and effortless that it's easy to see why no overdubs were required. Like Wilson, they live and breathe the real deal blues".

"I love Wilson for his harp and vocals, and also for his knowledge and enthusiasm. This is another album that will leave you hoping that he never stops recording".
