Junior Wells - On Tap

An album that Junior often cites as his own personal favorite among his releases, this is the man live and raw recorded at Theresa's Tavern, the south-side Chicago bar, where Junior (and many other blues legends) could often be found spending a little leisure time. Here, Junior rips through a 9-song set made up mostly of Chicago blues standards with just a slight funky mid-'70s edge with help from Phil Guy and Sammy Lawhorn.
