Lyrics from Goin' to Kansas City Blues (Bonus Tracks)
All Music Guide Review
A reunion of sorts with McShann, with whom Witherspoon had sung for four years in the late '40s. A relaxed, swinging set that bisects jazz and blues, it holds no great surprises, but 'Spoon fans will find this an enjoyable and accomplished record. About half of the material was penned by McShann or Witherspoon, including "Blue Monday Blues" (Witherspoon's adaptation of "Kansas City Blues") and a remake of "Confessin' the Blues." [Mosaic's 2007 edition included three bonus tracks.] ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide
