Blues artists compilation with a wide range of aspects, from folk acoustic blues to electric Chicago blues and rock blues. Includes some of the top bluesmen of the 20th century, such as B.B. King, Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters among others.
I'm very curious about the first track, a Hooker classic played by some guys that, they look to me as a studio project and not as an official band, with polished sound. Also the recording dates going back from early sixties to nineties. a very enjoyable collection, especially if you are on the road. Mr. Highway Man get out of my way.........
