Chicago Blues Jam Vol. 5 - Junior Wells & Pistol Pete (2005)

Buddy Guy's Legends has become as celebrated as its namesake for providing Chicago with the highest quality blues talent to be seen anywhere. From the Monday jam sessions to the constant flow of world-class talent weekends, Legends is a required stop for soul-stirring blue and barbeque. Chicago Blues Jam brings you a slice of this legendary stage, with interviews and commentary by Buzz Kilman.





Junior Wells

Referred to by many as the 'Godfather of Blues', Wells has left an indelible mark on the world of music. An accomplished harp player who has regularly played with Buddy Guy and Muddy Waters, to name but two, this performance at Legends is a perfect example of why Wells was a perennial favorite here.

Pistol Pete

This man is proof that the blues still has a bright future ahead. This young guitarist, who has been likened to a fusion of B. B. King and Hendrix, shows why he is a regular fixture at Legends with his blistering 6-string technique.
