This is a compliation of performances at the "Chicago Blues Center", which continues to host shows by the City's best blues Performers, and for decades, has been a destination for international rock stars who come to jam with the world's best bluesmen. This is the venue where Lefty Dizz, Chicago's most flamboyant and entertaining bluesmen, performed his wildest shows on frequent Friday and Saturday nights from the 1970s to his passing on September 7, 1993. In contrast to his relatively tame studio recordings, this first compliation of Kingstone Mines recordings captures the raw energy of Lefty's live performances at the height of his career.
These performances are further enhanced by his hard-driving band, "Shock
Treatment", composed here by long-time members Jimmie Smith on guitar
and Nick Charles on bass, with Ralph Lapetina on organ Ray Allison
on drums, and a two-piece horn section sitting in. Leo Davis plays piano on track 2.
