Original album liner notes:
Whop Frazier is a native of Washington D.C., raised up on 14th & U St., NW. He has played around town with some other great musicians to come out of DC, including Bobby Parker (for the last 25 years), Mille Jackson and Carl Anderson. During his 30 years in music he has performed with such legends as James Cotton and Carey Bell. After years of looking for help to make an album, he decided to get into the studio and 'do it own his own' and he hopes you enjoy the music.

Thank God, my family, all the people who support me, and all the musician who contributed in the making of this album.

Special thanks to Mick Fleetwood and Mike Melchonie.
