And there's more than enough big-name talent: John Lee Hooker, Eddie Taylor, Gatemouth Brown, Johnny Shines, Jimmy Dawkins, Otis Rush, Little Mack, Buster Benton, Lafayette Leake, and many more. This collection features mulitple performances by each of the featured artists, usually two to five performances per artist.
