John Hammond - Footwork

John Hammond — Footwork

1979 record of Delta Blues classics

Features "Crossroads Blues," "Who Do You Love," "Preaching Blues" and more!

Long out-of-print, now reissued as a 12" blue/green vinyl LP

After the success of the Big City Blues and Hot Tracks reissues, here comes Footwork, a long-lost gem finally re-released on blue/green vinyl. Unavailable for years, this album captures John Hammond at his peak: a gravelly voice, razor-sharp guitar playing, and a raw energy that channels Chicago blues and boogie. With driving rhythms and scorching slide work, Footwork isn't just an album — it's a full immersion into the soul of the blues.
