This is the 1958 masterwork album of Champion Jack Dupree’s long and prolific career. Cut in New York with a blasting band that included saxist Pete Brown and guitarist Larry Dale, the Jerry Wexler-produced Atlantic collection provides eloquent testimony to Dupree’s eternal place in the New Orleans blues and barrelhouse firmament. There’s some decidedly down-in-the-alley subject matter — “Can’t Kick the Habit,” “T.B. Blues,” a revival of “Junker’s Blues” — along with the stomping “Nasty Boogie” and treatments of the ancient themes “Stack-O-Lee” and “Frankie & Johnny.”
