Annotazione

3CD digipack of a mix of "American Folk" and blues music; the quality of the transfers presented here range wildly, with some of them being a bit too loud and thus generating unnecessary distorition when compared to the original recordings or better transfers on other releases.

Track 15, CD2 is mis-credited to T-Bone Walker when it is actually Memphis Slim singing.
