Hoodoo Man Blues - Junior Wells

Advantages: Some amazing, original tracks
Disadvantages: Not to everyone's taste

This song isn't pretty or anything, but it does sound good. As it is actually Swiss' song he takes up the advantage of the track, which is ok as he is a talented artist, but my favourite part is actually BB bit, it does sound amazing. 8/10 Track 15 - A good man This is another track that I love, and I love it for many reasons, the first being, well, it sounds amazing, but most of this album sounds amazing so that isn't really all that special.

She belongs to Me She's got everything she needs She's an artist, she don't look back Covered by Grateful Dead, Harry Connick Junior, Ricky Nelson and others this track is slower and more subdued than the relatively upbeat ' Subterranean Homesick Blues'.
