Junior Wells - ‘Hoodoo Man’ live [Colourised] 1966

A rare one here, to celebrate the birthday of the brilliant Junior Wells with a performance of Hoodoo Man blues with the legendary Otis Rush filmed in Manchester on the 30th September during the 66’ American Folk Blues Festival on the 3rd night of the tour. The show was broadcast by Granada TV in December later that year as a show called ‘Nothing But the Blues’. Bob Juke kindly sent me a copy of the full 1966 Manchester show, so I’ve upscaled it and upped the frame rate before colourising it.

I don’t make anything colourising and putting these videos together so please support the channel with the link here if you can its greatly appreciated! https://tr.ee/cplUOY9n5L

Hoodoo Man Blues was on the debut album of Junior Wells (the LP also being called Hoodoo Man Blues), and was recorded with the Junior Wells’ Chicago Blues Band, an early collaboration with guitarist Buddy Guy. It was recorded on the 22nd-23rd September 1965 and released on LP by Delmark Records in November 1965.

Wells related to The Chicago Tribune in 1993 that the song from which the title of the album was drawn almost didn’t make the album. He had recorded “Hoodoo Man Blues” on a 78 rpm record years before (1954), but when the song was presented to radio personnel for possible rotation they had rejected it violently, throwing it on the floor and stomping on it. Wells, too disappointed to want to try again, credits Koester’s encouragement with the song’s inclusion on the album.
