It was the "Live at Ann Arbor & In Chicago" album and I was 18 years old, only in my 5th year of playing guitar. I definitely hadn't seen him perform live so I can't make any comparison. But I never had any complains about the sound quality with that album and neither with this one. For crying out loud, we're talking about blues music in the '60 folks. To those who complain about the poor sound quality, I'd like to suggest listening to the Rolling Stones' first live album from 1966. And I'm not just saying it's because of the screaming. Even a band like the Stones becoming #1 at the charts competing with the Beatles in those days, couldn't have released a live record with better sound quality.Before purchasing this CD from amazon, I read all the reviews. But when I actually palyed the CD I had forgotten which tracks were the "terrible" ones. After listening to the first track I thought it was going to get worse. But it didn't at all.This is another very important sound source of a great legend who had to pass away before seeing today's technology. I'd rather appreciate it and savor every moment to actually try and capture how it must have been if I were there in front of him myself.I don't remember in which of the two live albums' reviews it was, but someone wrote that people should listen to the studio albums. But why ? Why miss out all the raw excitement of live performance ? All that power and energy that you can actually feel from Magic Sam's live records (CDs) is a true Blues experience outside the live joints downtown. Just close your eyes and feel it. I myself rarely listen to his studio stuff.Someone also wrote that the "Magic" was gone by this time and Sam is doing the same thing over and over again. What's wrong with that ? It was his style of the moment which we should appreciate to actually have this chance to experience.Maybe today's high technology is spoiling us in a way. But all the noise you hear from the CD, is also part of this recording. I at least, can feel the air. And you can too because it's not so hard. For those who complain but still have this CD, just get used to it. It's worth it. ### ⭐⭐ Abysmal Sound for half the CD *by M***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 17, 2006* I don't know how anybody can give five stars for this album. The sound quality for the first eight songs is really bad. Far worse than usual delmark live records from the 60s and 70s. The second half is about the same sound as comparable CDs by Jimmy Dawkins or Otis Rush, but still a little worse.This makes it impossible to enjoy the first half of the CD, while the second half is allright. If you're a completist, you'll go for this one, otherwise, I think there are better albums to enjoy Magic Sam's wild West Side Blues ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Magic Sam and band sound great! *by D***G on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 22, 2015* This is Magic Sam, meaning that the playing is fantastic--ON FIRE! These are--or sound like--audience recordings. The ones from '68 are actually pretty crisp and clear; the earlier ones sound kind of muffled but I'm happy to have heard all of them. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/14926479-rockin-wild-in-chicago](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/14926479-rockin-wild-in-chicago) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
