Soul Fixin' Man was blues guitarist/vocalist Luther Allison's first American 
recording in nearly 20 years. However, his domestic inactivity was not because 
Allison had stopped playing music. Far from it, since he was based in Paris 
and worked constantly on the European continent. A powerful player whose 
intensity on this set sometimes borders on rock (although remaining quite 
grounded in blues), Luther Allison (who contributed eight of the dozen songs) 
displays the large amount of musical growth he had experienced since the 
mid-'70s. Joined by his quintet, the Memphis Horns, and (on "Freedom") a 
choir, Allison is heard throughout in top form.
