''Here, Former Rolling Stones bassist & full-time blues aficionado Bill Wyman picks 46 of his favorite classic blues songs, one track each from some of the most significant blues artists of the past century. Wyman, it turns out, has great taste. All the cuts are in good, re-mastered sound, clear but with a minimum of hiss, & the extensive notes are written with an eye to the memorable anecdote & the connection between this music & the rock 'n' roll that might be more familiar to many listeners. There's no denying that what is here is some of the greatest American music ever scratched into wax, & this set makes a fine introduction to a proud heritage.'' - Will Meyerhofer (Barnes & Noble).
Comes complete with 22-page CD insert packed full of facts about the featured artists & tracks.
