Back! Here Comes Charley Musselwhite's South Side Band is the 1967
debut album of American blues-harp musician Charlie Musselwhite, leading
Charlie Musselwhite's Southside Band. The Vanguard Records release
brought Musselwhite to notability among blues musicians . With rough
vocals and notable performances on harmonica, guitar and bass guitar,
the album was critically well received. It introduced Musselwhite's
signature song, his cover of Duke Pearson's "Cristo Redemptor".
Among
the album's tracks, "Cristo Redemptor" has remained particularly
important in Musselwhite's repertoire, standing as his signature song,
although subsequent versions of the Duke Pearson cover have been longer.
Musselwhite's music here is characterized by smooth harmonica a "harsh,
almost strained voice" that Allmusic indicates is "considerably more
affected than...later [vocals] (clearer, more relaxed)". Mandel's guitar
work, influential, features what Legends of Rock Guitar describes as
"relentless fuzztone, feedback-edged solos, and unusual syncopated
phrasing." Allmusic highlights the guitarist's "snakey stuttering
style", particularly on track "Chicken Shack" in which it "truly makes
you think your record is skipping." Bass player Bob Anderson, who later
played with Howlin' Wolf, has been singled out for a noteworthy
rendition of the classic root-?3rd-4th progression in the song "Help
Me".
