Product Description
(1993 'Alligator') (54:20/14) In Kalifornien mit der Unterstützung von u.a. den beiden jungen weißen Gitarristen Zach Zunis und Rick Holmstrom traditionell produziert. Empfehlenswerter Tipp.! / Beautiful album from one of the most underrated Chicago bluesmen of the 1950s. He had a tremendous hit with 'I Wish You Would' in 1955. After many years of absencve from the recording scene, this one has been produced in California. Great sound, good material. Recommended.

After a nine-year break, Chicago harpist Billy Boy Arnold returned with this fine set, which opens with a great remake of his classic "I Wish You Would".
Dominated by Arnold's harp, and by pianists Rob Rio and Andy Kaulkin, this is sturdy electric blues a la Muddy Waters or Jimmy Rogers, and the numerous highlights include the Chuck Berry-styled rocker "Move On Down The Road" (great boogie piano by Andy Kaulkin), the swinging "Fool For You", the tough, swaggering "You Got Me Wrong", and a cover of "Shake Your Boogie", originally by Arnold's one-time mentor, John Lee "Sonny Boy" Williamson.
Not everything is equally magnificent, or particularly orginal, but there is more than enough here to make "Back Where I Belong" a worthwhile purchase for fans of classic Chicago blues.
3½ stars.

Solid blues album!
10 Oct 2009
Format:Audio CD
Billy Boy Arnold has never received the attention he deserves. He's been on the scene since the late 50's but is probably much better known for a couple of classic songs that were covered by rock groups. "I wish you would" and "I ain't got you".This early 90's album shows him in good form,playing some great harp,and with a rockin' band backing him.If you don't have any of his records this is a great place to start. He's still recording and performing but never seems able to reach the level of acceptance that other chicago blues performers have acheived. Keep at it Billy!
