Product Description

"Messin' with the Kid" is a rhythm and blues-influenced blues song originally recorded by Junior Wells in 1960. Chief Records owner/songwriter/producer Mel London is credited as the songwriter. Considered a blues standard, it is Junior Wells's best-known song. "Messin' with the Kid" was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame and has been recorded by a variety of blues and other artists.
The Blues Brothers recorded a live performance of "Messin' with the Kid", which was included on their first album Briefcase Full of Blues (1978). In a song review for AllMusic, Richard Gilliam notes that while the album "seems so little influenced by Chicago-style blues[,] the band did find room for this Junior Wells classic, adding the sort of rich instrumental backing that Wells himself would adopt for the song". Wells later recorded a reworked version of the tune with a full backing band including horns for his 1993 album Better Off with the Blues.
