Review by Alexander Ebel

Blues Hit Big Town is a classic album by Junior Wells that showcases his exceptional talent as a blues musician. The album features some of his most memorable tracks, including "Hoodoo Man Blues," "Messin' with the Kid," and "Little by Little."

Wells' soulful vocals and impressive harmonica playing are at the forefront of this album, backed by a tight band that includes some of the best musicians of the genre. The songs are raw and gritty, capturing the essence of the Chicago blues scene of the 1960s.

Another gem: Junior Wells in his prime recorded at Universal Studio in Chicago, where so many of the great Chicago blues classics were recorded.
