No Strain is an album by American blues pianist Memphis Slim which was recorded in 1960 and released on Bluesville, a sublabel of Prestige Records. It was reissued by Fantasy in 1972 as part of the double LP Raining the Blues, along with Just Blues, another album from the same sessions.[1]
In his review for AllMusic, Stephen Cook says "Both at the keyboard and the mic, alone or with company, Slim shows why he was one of the most urbane and original of blues giants."
All compositions by Peter Chatman except where noted.
