Here's an Otis Rush recording that you might not have heard before.

Real good quality off the radio.


band members:
guitar and vocals - Otis Rush
organ/piano - Greg Perry
bass - Jimmy Lloyd Rea
drums - Randy Lilya
guitar - Craig (?)

Recording notes:

Track 1 starts in progress. I don't know who's singing lead on track 2 'Help Me'.

Otis is introduced on track 3.

I couldn't quite figure out the guitar players last name, even though he's been part of the Portland music scene for many years.

This is a good blues show. Your typical slow to medium paced tempo.

It's amazing that Otis is still alive at the age of 81, Otis actively toured from 1956 to 2004.

Suffered a stroke in 2004, which has prevented him from performing.

This is the first Otis Rush recording that I've shared, I hope all you blues fans will enjoy it.

Thanks to BR for supplying the tape.
