Of all the pivotal figures in blues history, certainly one of the
most important was Robert Nighthawk. He bridged the gap between
Delta and Chicago blues effortlessly, taking his slide cues from
Tampa Red and stamping them with a Mississippi edge learned first
hand from his cousin, Houston Stackhouse. Though he recorded from
the '30s into the early '40s under a variety of names - Robert Lee
McCoy, Rambling Bob, Peetie's Boy - he finally took his lasting
sobriquet of Robert Nighthawk from the title of his first record,
"Prowling Night Hawk".

It should be noted that the huge lapses in the man's discography are
direct results of his rambling nature, taciturnity, and seeming
disinterest in making records. Once you got him into a studio, the
results were almost always of a uniform excellence. But it might be
two years or more between sessions.

This great-value 48-track 2-CD set comprises the main body of his
significant recorded output under his own names, with noted
performers like Speckled Red, Willie Dixon, Ernest Lane, Pinetop
Smith and Ransom Knowling featured on his sessions, and is a
showcase for the intense bottleneck style he developed as he made
the transition from acoustic to electric guitar which charted the
way for the likes of Elmore James and others, for whom he was a
significant influence.
