A historic recording that laid the foundation for blues guitar.
A compilation album of blues guitarist T-Bone Walker's signature performances, characterized by swing and melodic phrases.
This album features numerous performances that pioneered the possibilities of the electric guitar, and is impressive for its effortless movement across the boundaries between blues and jazz. While the sound's contours are somewhat rough, the recording technology of the time offers a vivid sense of realism. The phrases are imbued with a sense of song, and the rhythms blend naturally, creating a sense of the prototype of modern blues. This is a valuable collection of recordings that confirms this important position in guitar history.
