If you haven't heard the one above which was his first when he came out of retirement then treat your ears as it is in IMHO a fabulous R&B album.
Just ordered it - thanks !
Also try the album he made with Earl Gaines as it is a really good blues album.
Playing on Vinyl - Fine blues from The Mighty Sam McClain
