For this re-mastered 2CD set we are indeed going back to the country and the classic wandering blues man. Here we present four bluesmen at the absolute top of the Blues hierarchy in the shape of the legendary Robert Johnson, Huddie (Leadbelly) Ledbetter, Charlie Patton and last but by no means least Blind Blake. We have managed to unearth four classic albums by these four legends that appeared in the early 1960s. The Robert Johnson set is of course the classic recordings he made in the late 1930s and that was put together on the defining album, King of the Delta Blues Singers in 1961. All the classics are to be found here and what a way to kick off the set, frenetically exhausting stuff! Leadbelly follows with perhaps a slightly more subdued set of classics from the mid 1940s, but hey there is tremendous power and emotion in that voice. CD2 kicks off with the extraordinary voice of Charlie Patton, calling to us from way back in 1929 through to 1934 on recordings the great man made for Paramount and Vocalion. We conclude with the wonderful voice and remarkable guitar stylings of Blind Blake from recordings made for Paramount between 1926-1932. The recordings on these album are from 78 rpm shellac discs originally recorded between the late 1920s-early 1940s. While every effort has been made to reduce hiss and crackle, there is inevitably some residual surface noise that reflects the vintage nature of the source material. As with all AVID releases, we hope you enjoy this classic set and check out our extensive catalogue for more great music across jazz, blues, country and many other musical genres.\u003cbr\u003eCheck out:- Blues Piano (AMSC1454 \u0026amp; 1398); Muddy Waters\/Howlin’ Wolf (AMSC1162); Lightnin’ Hopkins (AMSC1363, 1254 \u0026amp; 1225); Jimmy Reed (AMSC1214); John Lee Hooker (AMSC1382 \u0026amp; 1208); B.B.
