The Chess Box

The Chess Box (1990) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

The Chess Box does not contain all the great music Muddy Waters made. His talent and legacy are too large to be captured in a mere three discs, even one that spans from 1947 to 1972. This means, of course, that his legendary plantation recordings with Alan Lomax are not here, nor is his dynamic late-'70s comeback, Hard Again. But, truth be told, ...

As part of the compilation series issued in conjunction with the major television series documentary The Blues, this is a collection of 16 of Waters' more notable performances.

The Anthology: 1947-1972 (2001) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

There have been countless collections of Muddy Waters' classic Chess material released over the years, but Chess began to whittle down the domestic catalog toward the late '90s. The triple-disc Chess box remained in print, but they added two single-disc collections that each covered a specific period in Waters' career at Chess. Then, in 2001, MCA ...

Beginner's Guide to the Blues

Beginner's Guide to the Blues (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

Nascente's three-disc blues box set is a pretty useful introduction to the blues mainly because of the way it is set up, with the first disc featuring country blues selections, most of them from the 1920s and '30s, followed by a disc of electric urban blues, drawn mainly from the '50s, and a last disc of contemporary performers who are attempting ...

Long Gone

Long Gone (1997) more music like this

by Jimmy D. Lane

A flexible bluesman, Jimmy D. Lane can handle straight-ahead Chicago blues as proficiently as he handles blues-rock; Long Gone is a fine example of the latter. Increasing the volume, the singer/guitarist shows his appreciation of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan on such high-octane originals as "Obsession Babies," "White Tears," and "Whiskey." ...

A Proper Introduction to Muddy Waters: Mad Love

A Proper Introduction to Muddy Waters: Mad Love (2004) more music like this

by Muddy Waters

While it's true that this anthology of Muddy Waters material is limited to a single disc, for the price and the package it's a tough one to beat. Containing 24 tracks, it basically showcases the great bluesman's seminal early years when his rural Delta-styled blues made the move to the modern, raucous Chicago blues style, and covers the years 1948 ...

by Muddy Waters

There are scores of Muddy Waters compilations out there, and while it might be overreaching a bit to call this 24-track single-disc set definitive, it is still a mighty good selection, including as it does all of Waters' major singles from Chess Records and its Aristocrat Records imprint between the years 1948 and 1964 along with a single track ...

The Best of the Blues, Vol. 2 [Universal] (1992) more music like this

by Various Artists

MCA Special Products' The Best of the Blues, Vol. 2 has a slightly presumptuous title, and no one should expect that this budget line disc should function as some kind of definitive statement on the blues. Instead, if you think of it as a diverting sampler you'll be on the right track, especially since the compilers were able to cull recordings ...
