Must Have Series From Alligator (2004-03-23)

Alligator Records hit it right on the head when they named this series, "Crucial". As in this is a crucial series that every Blues fan should add to their CD collection. I bought this CD because I'm new to the Blues and wanted to find a few new artists to add to my collection. This CD introduced me to several artists that I have now added to my collection buy purchasing several other CDs. This CD starts out with an up tempo and rousing romp with Charlie Musselwhite's "Make My Getaway" and then moves on to a Harmonica Duet by Big Walter Horton and Carey Bell. The Gems just seem to roll out one after another from there. Among the notables on the CD are Legends like Billy Boy Arnold, Sonny Terry, Junior Wells, Delbert McClinton and James Cotton. I not only recommend this CD from the Crucial Blues series but all of them, especially for new comers to blues material.

Budget-friendly collection of good blues harp (2003-10-22)

The tracks with Cephas and Wiggins, the harmonica champ Sonny Terry, and Billy Boy Arnold (best known for his work with Bo Diddley) are the standouts here. Among the many good collections of Harmonica music (particularly of the blues variety), this is highly recommended budget-friendly stuff that is for the casual fan of good music as well as the practicing harmonicist.

This is a must-have for harmonica blues fans (2003-04-13)

Each cut on this CD is a treasure. The styles range from Chicago blues, to Boogie-Woogie, Funk and Delta-Mississpi styles. The harmonica masters in each cut show off essential blues harmonica techniques and style.

This CD, which is quite reasonably priced, is a must for a harmonica buff but also a treat for any blues fan. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
