Video of the Week #55

There is very little available video footage of Chicago blues harmonica great, Little Walter.  Here he is doing an instrumental, "Little Walter's Jump," backed by Hound Dog Taylor on guitar, Dillard Crume on bass and Odie Payne on drums.  This is from a 1967 European tour.  He died in 1968.

The only other video footage of Walter I know of is from the same tour.  He backs up Hound Dog Taylor doing "Wild About You," and Koko Taylor on "Wang Dang Doodle."  If he sang during this show, it seems not to have been recorded.
