Our Take

In the summer of '69, while Neil Armstrong was making history on the moon, a different kind of magic was happening right here on Earth at the Ann Arbor Blues Festival. Fast forward to 2021 and we are blessed with the release of the iconic festival's recordings, encapsulating the raw energy and soul of that unforgettable weekend.

This 5-disc collection is a veritable treasure trove for blues enthusiasts, featuring legendary acts such as Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and BB King. From the heartfelt wails of the vocals to the blistering guitar solos, each track is a testament to the sheer talent and passion of these artists.

The standout performances on this album are too numerous to count, but some highlights include Junior Wells tearing up the harmonica on "Messin' With the Kid", and Magic Sam's electrifying rendition of "Sweet Little Angel". The sheer virtuosity on display here is enough to make any music lover weak at the knees.

But what truly sets this album apart is the palpable sense of camaraderie and joy that permeates each track. It's as if you can feel the sweat and tears of the performers pouring out of your speakers, transporting you back in time to that hazy summer weekend in Michigan.

In conclusion, the Ann Arbor Blues Festival 1969 is a must-have for any serious music aficionado. So grab a drink, kick back, and let the sweet sounds of the blues wash over you like a warm summer breeze. Trust us, you won't regret it.
