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. ...

Keb' Mo'

Keb' Mo' (1994) more music like this

by Keb' Mo'

Keb' Mo's self-titled debut is an edgy, ambitious collection of gritty country blues. Keb' Mo' pushes into new directions, trying to incorporate some of the sensibilites of the slacker revolution without losing touch of the tradition that makes the blues the breathing, vital art form it is. His attempts aren't always successful, but his gutsy ...

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 ...

King of the Delta Blues Singers, Vol. 2 (1970) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

A wonderful follow-up to the first compilation (King of the Delta Blues Singers) of Robert Johnson's small library of recorded work. This album boasts the first album appearance of "Love in Vain," as well as a number of other blues classics penned by the artist. "Sweet Home Chicago," "I Believe I'll Dust My Broom," "They're Red Hot," and "Malted ...

Acoustic Stories

Acoustic Stories (1997) more music like this

by R.L. Burnside

R.L. Burnside is notorious for his gritty, greasy Delta blues, as each of his records since his 1991 discovery have been blistering electric recordings. That's what makes Acoustic Stories so refreshing. Recorded at New York City in 1988 with harp player John Neremberg, the album balances originals with a handful of well-selected covers, including ...

Hellhound on My Trail: Songs of Robert Johnson

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 ...

Spiral Staircase

Spiral Staircase (1969) more music like this

by Ralph McTell

McTell's second album remains most remembered for the first version of "Streets of London," although this acoustic version is different from the mid-'70s re-recording that made it to number two in the British charts. It's a low-key and wistful record, no surprise there, as McTell has never been an in-your-face kind of performer. The tone is ...

Steady Rollin' Man

Steady Rollin' Man (1970) more music like this

by Robert Lockwood, Jr.

When it came to recording an album as a leader, Arkansas native turned Chicago session guitarist Robert Lockwood, Jr. was definitely a late bloomer. Lockwood was first recorded as a sideman in 1941, but not until he was 55 did he record his first album as a leader, with 1970s Steady Rollin' Man (although he had provided a few singles here and ...

This live program featured some of the late legend's old partners - Honeyboy Edwards, Johnny Shines, Robert Jr. Lockwood -- and some of his contemporary successors, such as Lionel Pitchford, Cephas And Wiggins paying heartfelt tribute. Bill Dahl, All Music Guide

Complete Collection (1998) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

Robert Johnson's recordings were made in the 1930s, but they did not become widely known until the 1960s, and did not achieve mass popularity until the 1990s, with the release of Columbia/Legacy's box set The Complete Recordings. Due to the age of the recordings, however, they are in the public domain in Europe, so any record label can simply copy ...

Plays Robert and Robert [Evidence] (1982) more music like this

by Robert Lockwood, Jr.

Lockwood in a beautifully recorded solo context (cut in France in 1982 for Black & Blue), doing what he does best -- his own songs and those of his legendary mentor, Robert Johnson. Purists may quiver at Lockwood's use of the 12-string guitar as his primary axe, but he long ago made the instrument his own blues tool of choice, and he handles its ...

I Got to Find Me a Woman (1998) more music like this

by Robert Lockwood Jr.

These 14 tracks, cut in 1996 when Lockwood was 81 years old, are among the most accessible music that he has ever laid down. Had this record -- with its mix of spare, raw solos and duets juxtaposed with full band pieces that thunder quietly or roar loud and clear -- come out in the late '60s, it might have been as big and important a record as ...

Robert Johnson [Fruit Tree] (2004) more music like this

by Robert Johnson

This single-disc, 16-track collection of Robert Johnson's blues is yet another in the countless dozens that have already been issued. It adds nothing new -- simply because there is nothing new to add. The package is somewhat dodgy, and the sound isn't quite as pristine as the Sony remastered CDs. The only pluses for a novice would be that there ...

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

by Various Artists

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 ...

The Ultimate Blues Legend (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 ...
