The legendary Little Freddie King returns to Newvelle Records with a stripped down - and decidedly different - sound. The blues titan appears here just a few years following his acclaimed release Going Upstairs but now in raw, unadorned form. Paul DeFiglia on upright bass and Bobby Lewis on harp give a little structure for Little Freddie to expound from. Like a private conversation with a legend. A front porch record.

Here, Little Freddie plays classic works, many of which he first learned as an eight-yeard-old on a jury-rigged cigar box guitar in Mississippi. These are the songs he loves – from Lightnin’ Hopkins, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon,and Sister Rosetta Tharpe – and transformed in hands shaped by eight decades of living.
