Issued the year he died, Bluesmaster boasted more competent soul-blues hybrids by the man who reenergized the blues idiom with his trademark growl. LaSalle's &You're Ruining My Bad Reputation,& &Friday Is My Day& (written by legendary Malaco promo man Dave Clark), and a nice reading of Paul Kelly's slinky &Personally& rate with the standouts.
