This record is a reissue of her self-titled 1969 debut, which definitively marked the beginning of her reign. In truth, she'd already been making waves on the scene for several years, teaming with producer Willie Dixon to record the classics \"I Got What It Takes\" and \"What Kind of Man Is This\" in 1964, but this album includes what would become her signature tune, \"Wang Dang Doodle,\" recorded in 1965. Other songs that would develop a permanent association with Taylor's gut-deep, growling delivery include \"I Love a Lover Like You\" and the salty \"Twenty-Nine Ways,\" but there are other gems here as well. Not the least of these is the downright spooky duet \"Insane Asylum,\" with Dixon, as well as the previously unreleased \"Love Sick Tears\" and \"He Always Knocks Me Out.\" The record also includes session appearances from some of the other household names of Chicago blues; Sunnyland Slim, Buddy Guy, Johnny Shines, Walter Horton, and, yes, Dixon himself doing bass and vocal duties. Although some of the material is somewhat dated, there's a timeless quality to Taylor's performance that illustrates why she's reigned for so long. --Genevieve Williams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKoko Taylor by Koko Taylor, ISBN13: B00005B7GU ISBN10: B00005B7GU Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109034807459,"sku":"B10.28.3 F_04-02-25_UBD_H0000A5K","price":18.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/81xoVW0tHbL.jpg?v=1754563398"},{"product_id":"crazy-cajun-recordings","title":"Crazy Cajun Recordings","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B00000GWX5 ISBN10: B00000GWX5 Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109131178147,"sku":"B10.24.1 F_06-16-25_H0000L4N","price":27.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/519CBBFNTiL.jpg?v=1754565675"},{"product_id":"roadhouses-and-dance-halls","title":"Roadhouses and Dance Halls","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B00000DS8Z ISBN10: B00000DS8Z Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109143924899,"sku":"B10.28.10 F_04-16-25_UBD_H0000ATI","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/91hQeKANkPL.jpg?v=1754565960"},{"product_id":"blues-from-elmo-texas","title":"Blues From Elmo Texas","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B000008OG9 ISBN10: B000008OG9 Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109156409507,"sku":"B10.28.4 F_04-02-25_UBD_H0000A7K","price":20.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/61LADpEoJLL.jpg?v=1754566410"},{"product_id":"authorized-bootleg","title":"Authorized Bootleg","description":"\u003cp\u003e, ISBN13: B0000065KD ISBN10: B0000065KD Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109188685987,"sku":"B10.24.2 F_UBD_H0000RR0","price":17.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/71KF462anfL.jpg?v=1754567342"},{"product_id":"get-wise-to-yourself","title":"Get Wise to Yourself","description":"\u003cp\u003e.Label: Black Top Records.Published: 1995\/'Catalog number is CD BT-1126 on spin and BT-1124 on disk', ISBN13: B000005YYT ISBN10: B000005YYT Material Type: audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CheapBookDepot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46109194059939,"sku":"B10.28.9 F_04-08-25_UBD_H0000AK8","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/9227\/5107\/files\/71asxCgVtML.jpg?v=1754567464"},{"product_id":"move","title":"Move","description":"\u003cp\u003eAmazon.com\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs talented as he is versatile, Peterson covers many bases on this 1998 collection of soul-drenched blues. He mostly showcases his adventurous guitar on raw West Side Chicago romps, funky Clarinet workouts, and jump blues. The superior cover of Ray Charles' \"Let's Go Get Stoned\" combines his raspy, emotional vocal with gospel-flavored piano, while his sneaky electric piano transforms Prince's \"Purple Rain\" into Hendrix's \"Wind Cries Mary.\" Perhaps his talent leaves him too many options: While his guitar playing is certainly a force, his keyboard work is truly outstanding and deserves to be brought to the forefront more often. His gospel collaboration with Mavis Staples provides proof. Whatever style he ultimately chooses, however, Peterson smothers his concoctions in down-home gravy. --Marc Greilsamer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReview\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePeterson's opening guitar line sizzles right into ... a catchy, upbeat love tune.
