CD-R does not list personel for tracks 1-9, 1-12, 1-13. Credits for those tracks taken from The Essential Little Walter - MCA Records CD (tracks 1-9, 1-12) and More Real Folk Blues - MCA Records CD (track 1-13).

CD-R lists a Charles Clark as the composer of tracks 1-6 and 1-8. However, Blues Hit Big Town - Delmark CD lists the titles as by Dave Clark. The original release of track 1-6 ('Bout The Break Of Day / Lawdy! Lawdy!) lists the composer as just Clark. Therefore, it's still unclear who composed the two tracks.

CD-R comes in all-clear jewel case with 6-page foldout.
