Jacket Made in Canada Otis Rush is the most talented bluesman around and he proves it in this set recorded in Japan in 1975. The opening instrumental is an overwhelming guitar performance, perhaps his best ever. Then he trumps B.B. King's great performance 'Everyday I Have the Blues' with a version that soars and stays funky at the same time. A chilling 'All Your Love' is followed by playing and singing on 'So Many Roads' that is blues at its deepest. Otis Rush - I Cant Quit You Baby ''King of the singing string'' as Jimmie Vaughan refered to Otis. The vibrato and intensity the voice and the pain. Otis Rush is the blues.
