In 1981, Byther Smith finally found the opportunity to record his first full-length album for producer Kehn Bacon and his Grits label. Accompanied by a small, compact band (Mike Baietto, Bruce Felgen, Joe Pusateri), he delivers a superb record featuring his expressive voice and intense, incisive guitar playing. Highlights include “Walked all night long”, “300 pounds of joy”, “What my mamma told me” and “This little voice”. In Europe, the album was reissued by the British label Red Lightnin’, and helped Byther to make a name for himself outside the US.Recorded at Timbre Recording Studio in Illinois, this masterpiece of Chicago and delta blues is the magnum opus of Mississippi blues singer and guitarist Byther Smith. Originally released in 1983 and remastered in 2024, this alum captures the sound of Smith and his boys raw and live in the studio, playing out their trademark brand of tight-knit Chicago blues, rock and roll on tracks including ‘Tell Me How You Like It’, ‘Three Hundred Pounds of Joy’ and ‘Close to You’.

“A mainstay on the Chicago blues scene since the ’60s, “Byther Smith has earned a reputation as one of the most intense performers and songwriters in the blues.” (Living Blues)
