Featuring OTIS SPANN- GEORGE HARMONICA SMITH- JIMMY ROGERS & ELGIN EVANS.  Recorded at the SHRINE AUDITORIUM in Los Angeles in 1954, this live set was recorded at Radio Recorders in Hollywood from a live broadcast presented by GENE NORMAN.  This could be the earliest live recording of Muddy (exluding the STOVALL PLANTATION sides) to ever come to light.  Their twenty minute set includes the blues classics made famous by Muddy, ‘Hoochie Coochie Man’ and ‘I Just Want To Make Love To You,’ along with exciting romps through ‘Baby Please Don’t Go’ and ‘I’m Ready,’ and there is the bonus of a brief interview with the great man.  The tape of the performance has lain in the Crescendo vaults for decades, until dusted off for this special issue. The sound quality is sensational for a recording of such vintage with Muddy's vocal loud & strong and Otis Spann's piano well to the fore. The package is presented on 10-inch vinyl in a deluxe tip-on sleeve, with art in the mode of the iconic early 1950s Gene Norman Presents releases...............
