Probably, the most orthodox passionate Chicago West Side blues that is now played at Windy City, comes from Tail Dragger Tail is a singer who follows pure down home tradition, and is deeply influenced by Howlin’ Wolf He certainly gathers Wolf’s essence, his expressive and vocal dramatism and spirit, so this cd becomes a clear example of what I say Some years ago Dragger signed for Delmark Records and, in this new album, he displays better than ever with his usual vehemence, eighteen splendid blues backed by a bunch of excellent Chicago blues clubs habitual musicians, such as young players Rockin’ Johnny on guitar and Martin Lang on harp As special guest in Wander song you will find legendary singer and guitar player Jimmy Dawkins Personally speaking, I think Rooster’s Lounge is the best cd tail Dragger has published till now Listen to it and convince yourself
