The Time-Life Treasury of the Blues showcases Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup's "That's All Right" (recorded in 1946) and 19 subsequent electric blues classics of the postwar period. These are the powerhouse songs/hits of the era by Bobby Bland, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Howlin' Wolf, and Jimmy Reed. While there is nothing here that the aficionado doesn't already own, these 20 original remastered tracks are the perfect introduction for the blues novice.
