Hambone Review
by Jake Jacobson

Chicago Flavor featured Jimi "Prime Time" Smith and vocalist extrordinare, Barbara LeShoure. Once again audience participation was high with dancing and hand-clapping. If you haven't seen Barbara and Chicago Flavor perform it is really a treat that you shouldn't miss if you get a chance.

Chicago Blues Fest
Gary Eckhardt
Blue Monday
There were two acts on the main stage, Johnnie Mae Dunson with her son Prime Time Jimi Smith on guitar, John Lindberg on bass ( John is one of the best bass players around and is in demand big time), Roosevelt "Hatter" Purifoy on keys, John McGhee (Allen’s long time friend and has played with some of the top acts in the world), John Jokum on harp and of course as James Solberg puts it, The great Allen Kirk on Drums. Johnnie Mae Dunson is 87 years young and can still burn rubber. She wrote and played drums with Jimmy Reed and the crowd absolutely loved her. Her son son Jimi "Prime Time" Smith is one bad man on that guitar and vocals and it's plain to see the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The performance was awesome.
