That's a 5-star album if there ever was one. I put it at the same level as Muddy's "Fathers & Sons" and his Blue Sky sessions with Johnny Winter, and the end-of-career albums John Lee Hooker did with Roy Rogers as producer ("The Healer," "Mr. Lucky," etc).

There may be better duets in music, but if so, I don't know one. And contains Louis's great line, "I don't lie, baby, I'm just careless with the truth."

Here's "God Give Me Strength"
