In June 2016, Welch and Mike Ledbetter took part in a tribute to Otis Rush at the 33rd Chicago Blues Festival. Ledbetter had previously fronted the Nick Moss Band, and the Welch and Ledbetter live collaboration led to them recording an album together. Welch stated "... from the first time I heard Mike, I knew he was the kind of singer I’ve always been trying to play like." Ledbetter countered, "The way we played off each other was beautiful to me... Everything just fit perfectly." The album was titled Right Time Right Place and was released by Delta Groove Productions. Right Place, Right Time's track listing included a number of original songs and several cover versions. These latterly comprise the album's opening track, a cover of Elmore James' "Cry for Me Baby"; the Willie Dixon penned "I Can't Stop Baby"; alongside a reworking of the Jerry Leiber and Artie Butler song "Down Home Girl"; plus "Cryin' Won't Help You", which was an old B.B. King song. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
