His Best [MCA]

by
Sonny Boy Williamson
While some hardliners will point to his early 1950s Trumpet recordings as his most undiluted work, Sonny Boy's tenure at Chess Records was his longest and most successful and therefore deserves first look for the novice coming to this remarkable bluesman at ground level. This 20-track collection takes 17 tracks from the excellent two-disc ...

Joe Bonamassa
Despite his statement in the liner notes that "In an era where it is best to play it safe, I chose to take a risk...," there isn't much surprising or risky about young guitarist Joe Bonamassa's fifth studio album. Most of his previous releases have mixed blues covers with his own originals, all played with a rocker's attitude, volume and less-than ...

John Mayall's Bluesbreakers w/Peter Green
Some John Mayall fans might be disappointed to find that the radically expanded two-CD edition of A Hard Road actually includes no previously unreleased material, even though it tacks on a whopping 22 additional tracks. It's more a complete document of the Bluesbreakers' recordings with Peter Green, of which A Hard Road was just the most prominent ...

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of John Mayall

John Mayall
This 11-cut John Mayall best-of from his Decca years seems weirdly incomplete. That said, the stuff that is here, from editions of the Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton, Peter Green, and Mick Taylor (all issued between 1966 and 1968), is very solid. The set includes the famed rendition of Freddie King's "Hideaway" that showed the world what the ...

John Mayall
A grab bag of rare tracks from the '60s, some of which stand among Mayall's finest. His debut 1964 single "Crawling up a Hill" is one of his best originals; this comp also includes a couple of 1964-65 flipsides that were never otherwise issued in the U.S. The eight songs featuring Peter Green include some top-notch material that outpaces much of ...
