Customer Reviews

A good introduction to the Blues.
If you are a blues guitarist wannabe you should own this album. Good recordings of a variety of blues styles and classic licks.

Good Collection
This collection of blues from relatively recent artists (50s to 70s) is worth the money. Of particular interest is to hear Otis Rush's original 'All your love' to see how Eric Clapton copied every note on the ground breaking John Mayall beano album. In addition there are so many other original tracks and guitar licks which artists have copied over the subsequent years.

blues for you
great compilation album. muddy waters, otis rush, bb king, t-bone walker, and those are the artists on the first 4 songs. each song different than the other, and each one played with precision by a master guitar player. it has an older sound to it, like when muddy waters plugged that amp in for the first time. but like fine wine, as it gets older it gets better. check out the tremendous guitar playing on the last track - see me in the evening - with hound dog taylor providing the riffs.
