Editorial Reviews :
This two-CD box contains all 41 recordings Johnson made, including 12 alternate takes, and each cut remains a classic. This set's release in 1990 caused quite a stir, selling more than 500,000 copies, and, on the basis of endorsements from Eric Clapton and Keith Richards, introduced a great number of rock fans to Delta blues. Amazingly, Johnson built his enormous legacy on the strength of just two recording sessions: the first session, in November of 1936, produced among others 'I Believe I'll Dust My Broom,' 'Sweet Home Chicago,' 'Cross Road Blues,' and 'Walkin' Blues,' making it perhaps the most influential single session in blues history.
Buyer Reviews :
If I could only pick a few select discs to have with me on a deserted island, this would be one (well, two) of them. Johnson was simply incredible, passionate and haunting. His music was complex in it's simplicity and simple in it's complexity (just try learning and playing some of those guitar licks!). This is a MUST OWN collection for all blues fans! If you love the blues and you don't own this box set...what are you waiting for? Order it now!!!
