Luther Allison Love The People 1997

Love The People is a live album by Luther Allison.

It was recorded at the Barrymore Theater in Madison, Wisconsin on July 10, 1997 on the day he was told he had cancer. This was to be his last concert and was recorded by Triple M Radio on 105.5 FM, Madison.

This album was released on Alligator Records and is distributed by the Luther Allison Madison Memorial fund with the aim of raising enough money to finance a memorial for him.

A second album called Madison Blues contains more of the concert but this isn’t authorised by his estate. You can read more at http://www.mnblues.com/cdreview/cd-luther99.html
