Notes
This performance was broadcast Sept. 13, 2020, as part of WWOZ's 'Festing in Place - The Next Fest Thing' marathon over Labor Day weekend and the following weekend that featured excerpts of live recordings from the WWOZ vaults.

This is from the FM broadcast, not the online stream.

Also on the bill for this show were Davell Crawford and the Rebirth Brass Band.

This performance was at the earlier location of the Howlin' Wolf, in the 800 block of S.Peters Street (about a block from its current location on the other side of the street).


Editing notes:
-- An 15.3-second station ID was removed at 6:16 into Track 2 (the end of the recording);
