LP is displayed in a beautiful, one of a kind package (leather texture, die-cut, embossed logo). Pinetop Perkins spent the bulk of his career playing in bands, and this 1995 live set, recorded at Antone's in Austin, TX, the month he turned 82, is very much a band album. Perkins sings in a creaky, breathy voice and plays piano in his trademark barrelhouse style, but his accompaniment, consisting of regular bassist Calvin Jones and drummer Willie Smith, plus guests Kim Wilson on harmonica, Rusty Zinn on guitar, and Mark Kazanoff on tenor sax. New West Records is proud to present the reissue of Pinetop Perkins Live At Antone's Vol. 1. Long out of print, this title has been re-mastered for vinyl. Unlike their previous release, each of these LP's will include the entire original master as well as bonus tracks when available.
