undefined.com ---- This is by far the best and most comprehensive introduction to recorded blues ever assembled, drawing styles, record labels, and eras together with the efficiency of a spiders web. These five discs--tied to the hit-and-miss PBS film series Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues ( /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000CBHOI/%24%7B0%7D )--embrace field hollers, early queens Ma Rainey ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/41265/%24%7B0%7D ) and Bessie Smith ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/123243/%24%7B0%7D ), the musics first composer W.C. Handy ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/91552/%24%7B0%7D ), Delta slide guitarists, string bands, piano barrelhousers, jazz geniuses Count Basie ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/38102/%24%7B0%7D ) and Lionel Hampton ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/56491/%24%7B0%7D ), Texas hots, lyric poets Percy Mayfield ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/42171/%24%7B0%7D ) and Willie Dixon ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/52462/%24%7B0%7D ), Chicago powerhouses from Muddy Waters ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/108468/%24%7B0%7D ) to Buddy Guy ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/121218/%24%7B0%7D ), Howlin Wolf ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/74566/%24%7B0%7D ) and howling white boys, soulkittens Etta James ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/121047/%24%7B0%7D ) and Janis Joplin ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/136937/%24%7B0%7D ), juke joint brawlers like Hound Dog Taylor ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/38569/%24%7B0%7D ), African torchbearer Ali Farka Toure ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/36376/%24%7B0%7D ), modern guitar heroes Stevie Ray Vaughan ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/69904/%24%7B0%7D ) and Luther Allison ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/143368/%24%7B0%7D ), and even recent hit-makers Peggy Scott-Adams ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/85834/%24%7B0%7D ) and Susan Tedeschi ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/81796/%24%7B0%7D ). And thats just a smidgen of the talents represented across more than 100 cuts. Nonetheless, there are grave omissions in disc five, which focuses on contemporary blues. The raw electric sound of present-day Mississippi, embodied by R.L. Burnside ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/47573/%24%7B0%7D ) and other artists on the Possum label, has done much to open the ears of college-age audiences and should be included. Also absent are the musics most important contemporary innovators: Afro-blues fusionist Corey Harris ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/38617/%24%7B0%7D ), psychedelic folk bluesman Otis Taylor ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/145820/%24%7B0%7D ) and rap-blues proselytizer Chris Thomas King ( /exec/obidos/ts/artist-glance/34388/%24%7B0%7D ). Still, its obvious this collection is a work of devotion and intelligence as well as commerce. --Ted Drozdowski
