CD ReviewsGreat Bargain on a Limited Edition! deepbluereview | SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA USA | 08/15/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a nicely packaged 3 CD set that essentially contains all of the songs contained on both "Hot Foot Powder" and "The Robert Johnson Song Book" with the addition of two songs, "Terraplane Blues" and "Kind Hearted Woman Blues", that were left off of the "Robert Johnson Song Book" CD. The addition of those songs completes Green's rendition of all 29 Robert Johnson songs. As an added bonus, you receive a third disc which features Robert Johnson performing all 29 original tunes. If you were to buy the two Green CD's mentioned above, the price for those two disc's alone would equal the price of this 3 CD set. Adding to the bargain is the fact that each set comes individually numbered and is limited to 10,000 copies.Musically, Peter Green and long time friend Nigel Watson have assembled their Splinter Group to perform this tribute to Robert Johnson.Both of the CD's are probably the closest and best rendition of Robert Johnson in it's pure form that you are likely to hear. No fancey fret work or screeming vocals, just down home style delta blues. It's hard to imagine how one could go wrong with this purchase...." Just in case this hasn't been made obvious: . | Chicago, IL USA | 03/13/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "Perhaps this hasn't been stressed enough: The first two discs are Green+ Splinter Group + Special Guests' interpretations of -every- Robert Johnson song -ever- recorded,-29-,(the rest of the 44 cuts available elsewhere are alternate takes), the third disc has the -same- 29, but it's the original Robert Johnson recordings! (If you have the first release of the 2-cd Robert Johnson box, you'll find this cd to be -much- better sounding). By the time you're here looking, you -want- this."
