- The album was recorded live at the Pepper Pot club in Chicago. It features a searing ten-minute rendition of "Messin' with the Kid." The album was Wells's first for Vanguard Records.
- Buddy Guy's guitar playing on this album is a perfect foil to Wells's harmonica.
- This album was reissued on CD in 1990 with bonus tracks.
