Product Description:

Despite the title, JIMMY REED AT CARNEGIE HALL is not a live album, but a recreation of a Jimmy Reed Carnegie Hall performance. The songs are not the original recordings, but new versions recorded in 1961.
While the title is something of a misnomer, LIVE AT CARNEGIE HALL is nonetheless an essential part of the Jimmy Reed catalog. It was made in the wake of (and intended to capitalize on) Reed's highly publicized Carnegie concert in 1961, but was in fact was recorded entirely in the studio. Whatever its origins, it stands as a stellar batch of Reed's greatest tunes, including "Baby What You Want Me To Do," "Bright Lights Big City," etc. This release takes the career-summary angle even further by appending Vee-Jay's BEST OF JIMMY REED to the CARNEGIE tracks. Appropriately, this was the album that introduced much of the world to the blues giant's laid-back charms.
