Dieser vom Pionier des Bluesforschers Samuel Charters fachmännisch zusammengestellte, kommentierte und in den meisten Fällen aufgezeichnete Band erkundet alle Bereiche der Ursprünge des Blues. Mit verheerenden Aufnahmen von Gefängnisarbeitern, einheimischer afrikanischer Musik bis hin zu texanischen Gefängnisliedern ist dies eine Hardcore-Sammlung, die man nur finden kann, und dennoch für den Durchschnittsfan sehr zugänglich.
