The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1]

The Complete Recordings [Columbia #1] (1990) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

A double-disc box set containing everything Robert Johnson ever recorded, The Complete Recordings is essential listening, but it is also slightly problematic. The problems aren't in the music itself, of course, which is stunning and the fidelity of the recordings is the best it ever has been or ever will be. Instead, it's in the track sequencing. ...

Blue Light 'Til Dawn

Blue Light 'Til Dawn (1993) more music like this

by Cassandra Wilson

Cassandra Wilson has steadfastly refused to be pigeonholed or confined to any stylistic formula. Her highly anticipated Blue Note debut may stir renewed controversy, as she is once again all over the place. She begins the set with her intriguing version of "You Don't Know What Love Is." Then she moves from two Robert Johnson covers ("Come on in My ...

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track]

King of the Delta Blues Singers [Bonus Track] (1966) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Reading about the power inherent in Robert Johnson's music is one thing, but actually experiencing it is another matter entirely. The official 1998 edition of the original 1961 album was certainly worth the wait, remastered off the best quality original 78s available, of far superior quality to any of the source materials used on even the 1991 ...

Classic Delta Blues

Classic Delta Blues (1966) more music like this

by Big Joe Williams

Classic Delta Blues collects 12 cuts Big Joe Williams cut in 1964. For these recordings, he played a standard six-string guitars instead of hauling out his custom nine-string and the effects are pleasant, but not revelatory. Thom Owens, All Music Guide

The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions: 1967-1969

The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions: 1967-1969 (1999) more music like this

by Fleetwood Mac

A six-CD set of everything Fleetwood Mac recorded for the British Blue Horizon label. Wait, you're saying, didn't they only do two albums for Blue Horizon before leaving the company in early 1969? True, but there were also the non-LP singles that comprised the bulk of the U.K. compilation The Pious Bird of Good Omen, the two albums of blues jams ...

Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: Feel Like Going Home (2003) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Drawn from the soundtrack to Martin Scorsese's seven-part television documentary on the blues, Feel Like Going Home documents the roots behind the roots, traveling from the American South to West Africa and back again, resulting in a remarkable collection that spotlights the past, present, and future of this historically important musical genre. ...

The Best of the Original Fleetwood Mac (1999) more music like this

by Fleetwood Mac

One of several compilations of Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac material, this 18-song compilation has the virtue of budget pricing to recommend it, along with a healthy cross-section of material variously attributed to Green, Jeremy Spencer, and Danny Kirwan (as well as Howlin' Wolf et. al.), though at this stage of the group's history, originality ...

Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Not the first compilation of bluesmen (and one woman) interpreting the limited but radically influential work of Robert Johnson, and almost certainly not the last, this 2001 entry is one of the more substantial efforts in the lineage. Instead of refashioning these classics in unique arrangements, the compilers have stripped the artists and songs ...

From Four Till Late (2004) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Robert Johnson may not have been as innovative in the country blues field as many people think, but as one of the last of the great Delta players to record, he brought a late-era refinement to his material, and with striking songs like "Stones in My Passway," "Hellhound on My Trail," and the assured "Last Fair Deal Gone Down," he certainly ...

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac (1968) more music like this

by Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac's debut LP was a highlight of the late-'60s British blues boom. Green's always inspired playing, the capable (if erratic) songwriting, and the general panache of the band as a whole placed them leagues above the overcrowded field. Elmore James is a big influence on this set, particularly on the tunes fronted by Jeremy Spencer ("Shake ...

Black Magic Woman (1971) more music like this

by Fleetwood Mac

No U.S. label has seen fit to provide a multi-disc retrospective of the Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac for the digital age. If you suspect that this richly warranted project will never come to fruition, you might want to hunt down this double LP of pre-Then Play On material. Originally issued in the early 1970s, it pairs Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac ...

King of the Delta Blues [Columbia/Legacy] (1997) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

This 16-track single-disc compilation gathers up the best-known tracks from the two original volumes of King of the Delta Blues Singers for a nice entry-level collection of Robert's best. Utilizing the latest in remastering technology, these recordings have never sounded quite this clear and full-bodied before, and the difference between this and ...

Subtitled "The Country Blues Collection," Rory Block sticks to what she may do better than any other contemporary player around. These cuts have all been heard scattered about on various other albums going back to High Heeled Blues from 1989; here they are pulled together into one comprehensive whole. She explores the wide variety of country-blues ...

A Proper Introduction to Robert Johnson: Cross Road Blues (2004) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

This single-disc, 29-track collection of Robert Johnson's blues is yet another in the countless dozens that have already been issued. While it adds nothing new -- simply because there is nothing new to add -- the package is attractive, the price is right, and the sound is as good as the Sony CDs. The other plus for a novice would be that there are ...

Judgement Day: Songs of Robert Johnson (2004) more music like this

by Various Artists

A brilliant assimilator, Robert Johnson took stock community blues material and infused it with his own personality, and no doubt well aware that a big part of a performer's charisma was a little dose of mystery, layered his most striking songs with a vague and ominous melodrama, even appropriating the old myth of bartering away one's soul to the ...

Every Day I Have the Blues [Goldies Box] (2000) more music like this

This three-disc set features a total of 42 classic blues recordings, some going back to the 1920s. There's no rhyme or reason to the set, except that all of the tracks are classic recordings from Bessie Smith's "St. Louis Blues" and Robert Johnson's "Crossroads," "Hellhound on My Trail," and "Kindhearted Woman Blues" to Etta James' "At Last" and B ...
