This album was the last blues session at the famous Ter-Mar studio where innumerable Chess records were made, many of them engineered, as this was, by Malcolm Chisholm. Dawkins's guitar sounds huge and utterly dominates the band. Fortunately so on the tracks where Johnson plays wah-wah rhythm guitar, a touch that dates the music as surely as if Dawkins had come to session in a kaftan. In songs like 'Welfare Line' and 'Peeple [sic!] Will Talk' the album marks the leader's transition as a singer from tentative to assured. He has also pared down his guitar playing, exchanging the frantic space-filling of his first two albums ( for Delmark) for a more economical and deliberate style. Today 'Blisterstring' stands the test of time as a perfect showcase of talents of a unique original artist.
