5.0 out of 5 stars
Slide Guitar Heaven, July 21, 2001
This review is from: Country Blues Bottleneck Guitar Classics 1926-1937 (Audio CD)
The only down side is that there are only 14 tracks - this is one of those Yazoo vinyl-to-CD transfers that suffer from this. But as usual with Yazoo, the sound quality is remarkably good for ancient scratchy old 78's.
Otherwise, this is a super collection covering greats like Black Ace, Bo Weavil Jackson, King Solomon Hill, Sylvester Weaver, Fred McMullen, Ramblin' Thomas. If you love good blues slide and you haven't heard these names, then this CD is for you! Oh yeah, it does also have a few names like Robert Johnson & Memphis Minnie.
Even if like me you have a lot of these tracks on other CDs, this is a good addition to the collection and one you can easily play from go to whoa without skipping a single track - usual Yazoo quality. I owned this before and had it stolen, had to get it again.
Keep on slidin'!
