Play the Blues is a landmark collaboration between two giants of Chicago blues -guitarist Buddy Guy and harmonica player Junior Wells. Recorded in 1970 and released by Atco Records, the album captures the duo's gritty, electric blues sound with help from legends like Eric Clapton and Dr. John, and production by the iconic Tom Dowd.
Highlights include “A Man of Many Words,” “T-Bone Shuffle,” and their fiery take on “Come On in This House.” The Expanded Edition adds rare alternate takes and live cuts like “Messin' with the Kid” and “Sweet Home Chicago,” offering deeper insight into their raw, improvisational style. This release is a powerful testament to Guy and Wells’ dynamic partnership and remains essential listening for blues fans and guitar enthusiasts alike.
