Brilliant
I think this is a fantastic compilation. Rough Guides have been doing a fine job of
releasing well-curated and remastered blues collections and this is one of
their very best I think.
For me, this album lives up to its title; I had never heard
any of these tracks before and they are really, really good. There's some brilliant guitar work and often
very fine singing, too. Sadly, my
download came without any notes (I will probably turn up dead in a ditch
somewhere if I bring any more physical CDs into our house), so I'm unable to
shed much light on the artists themselves, other than to say that the standard
is extremely high and the sound quality is very good for recordings of this
age. It's a tribute to skilled and
sensitive remastering.
In short, this is brilliant and if you have any interest in
blues or acoustic guitar in general, I van recommend it very warmly indeed.
