Blues guitarist David Weld got his start in early 1970s Chicago, earning his tenure performing alongside greats like Hubert Sumlin, Tail Dragger, Otis Rush, and Little Arthur, among others. When Weld’s mentor J.B. Hutto, introduced him to his nephew Lil’ Ed Williams, Lil’ Ed & the Blues Imperials was born. Weld spent better than a decade with the Blues Imperials before launching his own band the Imperial Flames in 1988. Burnin’ Love delivers the sort of raucous, guitar-driven Chicago blues that Weld’s fans have come to expect, with a guest performance by the one and only Lil’ Ed. (Release date: 04/20/10)
