Is The Blues - Otis Spann - Vinyl LP Record (Arrives in 20 days)

Widely considered the leading postwar Chicago
Blues pianist, and best known for his extensive work
in Muddy Waters’ group, Mississippi-born Otis Spann
grew up under the tutelage of Big Maceo Merriweather
and mastered the pounding barrelhouse piano style
that Maceo brought with him to Chicago. During his
tragically short life, Spann was a member of the Chess
label house-band that backed no only Waters, but
also Howlin’ Wolf, Chuck Berry, Little Walter, Junior
Wells, Willie Dixon, Bo Diddley, and Lowell Fulson,
among others. Otis Spann Is the Blues, recorded
for the Candid label in 1960, was his debut LP as a
leader, and presents his voice and piano in a duet with
guitarist Robert Lockwood, Jr, who also sings on a
few tracks.
