by Bill DahlStraight digital reissue of Taylor's debut Chess album from 1969. Produced by Willie Dixon (who can intermittently be heard as a duet partner), the set is one of the strongest representations of the belter's Chess days available, with her immortal smash"Wang Dang Doodle," and the chunky"Twenty-Nine Ways,""I'm a Little Mixed Up," and"Don't Mess with the Messer." Top-flight session musicians on Taylor's 1965-1969 output included guitarists Buddy Guy, Matt Murphy, and Johnny Shines and saxman Gene"Daddy G" Barge.
