about

A true original, the legendary Hubert Sumlin played guitar for 30 years with Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and others and defined a new strain of electric blues guitar as well as creating iconic hooks for many blues classics. His influence extended to such guitarists as Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Robbie Robertson, Marc Ribot, and Sharp himself. Hubert Sumlin: New York 95 was originally produced for Blues Planet records ho released Hubert’s album Wake Up Call. Recorded in 1995 at Seltzer Sound-NYC including duo with Dave Maxwell (piano) on 2 songs; and with S.P. Leary-drums, Fuzz Jones - bass on 3 songs with the rest, Hubert Sumlin 'solo' recorded in concert at Terra Blues, NYC.  Long thought lost, after restoring some DAT archives, producer Sharp found the sessions and enlisted Eric Mingus to add vocals to an unfinished rhythm track yielding the opening "Can’t Say No" (with added guitar by E# on Can’t Say No, East Broadway Blues, and One For Carl.
