Editorial Reviews

2009 two CD release. Cobra Records was founded in 1956 by Eli Toscano, a record shop owner in Chicago. He sensibly left all the creative decisions to his in-house producer and writer Willie Dixon, who had just left Chess Records. Dixon then signed the three best second generation performers of Chicago Blues: Buddy Guy, Otis Rush and Magic Sam. He wrote them some great songs and encouraged them to develop the single note guitar leads that distinguished their style.

1.0 out of 5 stars poor poor poor audio quality, May 26, 2009

i bought this because i thought it contained all of otis rush's cobra output, plus magic sams and buddy guys. but the audio quality of otis and sams recordings are so poor - in some songs you can't even make out that it is otis or sam or buddy who is singing. plus there is so much extra noise, hiss etc. bad remastering - if that is what it is. better off buying the official 'otis rush cobra recordings' and the 'essential magic sam' which has sam's cobra output - both of whichs reviews on amazon compliment the audio quality. if you look around i am sure you can get a better quality cd of buddy's cobra stuff elsewhere as well - which music btw is excellent. skip this - waste of money.

3 Blues Giants standing tall on one great cd release.
Not only does this highlight the remarkable talents of Magic Sam ,Buddy Guy and Otis Rush,
But it also displays the songwriting and production skills of one of the greatest names in Blues ,Willie Dixon.
Willie left Chess Records to run the short lived Cobra Records and as you will hear leaving another enormous legacy of pure blues at it's best.
