Synopsis

Album Description
2008 three CD release, the updated edition of this very popular title. This set is the perfect introduction to Blues music and features first class repertoire from the extensive Warners and Sony catalogues to create a premium-rate compilation. Disc One collects together `Blues Pioneers' such as Robert Johnson, Blind Willie McTell and Blind Willie Johnson as well as tracks from artists who might be associated with other genres yet who most clearly had `the Blues' such as Billie Holiday. Disc Two features the `Blues Greats' - artists such as Muddy Waters, T-Bone Walker and Professor Longhair who for many people define the Blues as well as tracks from those on the fringe of the Blues such as Ray Charles who clearly had the blues at the heart of his musical genius. Disc Three collects together tracks from the '70s onwards by artists who were influenced by the Blues - from Fleetwood Mac to ZZ Top via Janis Joplin and Taj Mahal - some of the greatest contemporary artists of all time who showed how the Blues live on. Nascente.
