10 discs of vintage Blues from the '30s, '40s, & '50s by the likes of Leadbelly, Robert Johnson, John Lee Hooker, Big Bill Broonzy, Lightnin' Hopkins, Muddy Waters, Bessie Smith, and the list goes on.
Sound quality's a bit skronky, but that's to be expected with a lot of this material.
A real treasure trove of earlyish Blues, and it's a very cheap set.

What a great "find" Tiggi has brought us. Rave reviews from critics and listeners. This is juke-box style presentation--you don't know what's gonna come next. If you want to scale up from this box--say, you're driving from Chicago to LA (Australians and Canadians are invited to use their long-drive benchmarks)--more than 2000 miles all the way--and are old-fashioned enough to do CDs, this will sustain--100 musicians, 52 discs--2 artists per disc so some dupe with Diggin'...Not pimpin' Amazon (got my own literary issues with them lately), just for the info and opinion. Still, they set the benchmark for new at $.60/artist. And if a new set, a free Hohner harmonica. http://www.amazon.com/ABC-Blues-Robert-J...+the+blues
