Following a ten-hour studio session with friends Dave Ray and Tony Glover on March 24, 1963, for the album Blues, Rags and Hollers, Koerner did a set at a local folk club and then an interview and performance for a Milwaukee radio station. Producer Mark Trehus acquired the tape of the radio performance several decades later. "Just the idea that there was unreleased recordings, by the guy I consider to be possibly the greatest living practitioner of American folk music in America today, was just exciting beyond belief for me," Trehus said.[1]
Mark Trehus, owner of the Minneapolis record store Treehouse Records and a longtime fan of Koerner, released the album on his label Nero's Neptune Records, along with a CD reissue of Koerner and Willie Murphy's 1972 album Music Is Just a Bunch of Notes which included a video of Koerner's experimental film The Secret of Sleep.[1]
Allmusic music critic Steve Leggett wrote of the album "Koerner played a dozen or so songs that night in his half-traditional, half-revisionist style accompanied by his charging 12-string guitar, harmonica interludes, and plenty of foot stomping. “Duncan & Brady” is an onrushing delight and there’s an early version of “Southbound Train” here, too, along with several other gems."[2]
