In 2001 and 2003, M.C. Records released Smokin’ Joint and Lookin’ For Trouble, both were nominated for Grammy Awards in the Traditional Blues category.

Take Me Back is deep, authentic, and filled with the gut-wrenching blues sounds Kim has made famous for over 40 years. Recorded live in the studio, in mono, Kim delivers the blues as his heroes did in the golden age of the genre in the 1950s. Kim and his all-star band muscle through 16 tracks with some new Wilson songs and a mix of some great blues and R&B gems by the likes of Jimmy Rogers, Jimmy Nolan, Larry Williams and more.
"For the last 17 years I have had fond memories of working with Mark Carpentieri at M. C. Records. When we met prior to the, award winning, Big Jack Johnson BBQ sessions I was very impressed with his positive productivity. He runs a tight ship and is always working very hard on your behalf. I’m looking forward to our journey on this record and thanks for welcoming me back aboard!" – Kim Wilson
Over the last 10 years Kim has been the go-to harmonica player. He has recorded with Peter Frampton, Buddy Guy, Mark Knopfler, Paul Simon and Eric Clapton.

Take Me Back was recorded at Big Jon Atkinson’s ultra-authentic Big Tone Studios. Kim Wilson invited some first-class blues musicians for the album including Billy Flynn, Barrelhouse Chuck, Big Jon Atkinson, Rusty Zinn, and Kid Andersen.

"To say that these recording sessions were enjoyable experiences would be a vast understatement! Not only are these fellas’ great musicians but they are also dear friends of mine and I want to thank them for the incredible performances that they gave." – Kim Wilson

Anyone else notice the track listing is all wrong ... I think the sleeve is mis-printed, so Amazon and everyone else are listing the tracks wrong. Sheesh.

Yes, I noticed this the first time I listened. I've been checking the comments to see if anyone else would write about it. I thought it might have been the original sharers fault, but when I listened to it on Spotify the tracks were also mixed up there so either it's mastered wrong or the artwork is wrong. I went with the order on the artwork and renumbered the mp3s. I think it flows better.

Hey guys, wrong filenames. I hope everything will be OK now.
Please download again.

Thanks Bluestender! I worked out they were just listed backwards (as they are on Amazon.com ... )
