Jimmy Reed Rockin' With Reed [Charly] Release Date: 2003 Label: Charly Records Charly Records has done well by Jimmy Reed's early library, remastering the material in state-of-the-art digital sound and expanding the 12-song original -- a blues masterpiece highlighted by three major hits ("Going to New York," "Down in Virginia," "Take Out Some Insurance") -- and adding four chronologically related songs derived from the very same sessions. These include the single versions of "Honey, Where You Going" and "Signals of Love," plus "When You Left Me" and "I Don't Go for That," which were confined to 45 release or later showed up on subsequent compilations. They obviously fit in perfectly, as they should -- coming from the very same body of sessions whence everything else here came -- and only add to the value of the original, and their sound quality is consistent with the original album's contents (and that's excellent).
