Recorded at Sun Studios in May of 2002.
Despite the subtitle ”Live at the Sun Studio 2002”, by aural evidence these are undeniably studio recordings with an addition at the beginning and end of each recording of public noise from some Riley’s concert in some club. The amount of audience that can be heard on the record could not physically fit in the cramped space of the Sun Studio where the recording of this album was made. Moreover, the intros to two recordings (chorus intro 19 seconds to Down by the Riverside and Riley’s vocals intro 7 seconds to Betty & Dupree) were taken directly from the 1959 Sun studio recordings. Each track includes Billy Lee talking about the song and the whole album is done in a way of ”live” show, even tho it’s clearly ordinary studio recorded album.
Not very known album. Was sold as a ”special gift” CD at Sun Records, or directly from Billy Lee’s home, like all records of his, from late 90s/early 2000s.
