Sun Records: Ultimate Blues Collection
Yeah, Sam Phillips was responsible for some of the most legendary and influential rock ‘n’ roll recordings of all time, but blues was his first and greatest love, and so the Sun Records vaults are full of seminal blues sides from which this 75-track collection draws quite the bounty! Here are just a few highlights: Bear Cat (The Answer to Hound Dog) Rufus Thomas; Hucklebuck Earl Hooker; Somebody Told Me Little Milton; Mystery Train Little Junior’s Blue Flames; Prison Bound Blues Sleepy John Estes; In the Mood Walter Horton; My Baby James Cotton, and more from Doctor Ross, Pinetop Smith, Billy “The Kid” Emerson, Roscoe Gordon, Honeyboy Edwards and other Memphis blues legends.
