Various Artists - Essential Blues Anthology

Why is the blues such an enduring strand of popular music? Eric Clapton simply called it 'a very powerful drug. I absorbed it totally, and it changed my complete outlook'. The 32 tracks in this collection are an enjoyable history lesson. With tracks such as 'I Put a Spell On You' by Screamin' Jay Hawkins or Otis Rush's 'I Can't Quit You Baby', this compilation demonstrates why this genre, that evolved out of African-American work songs, became the foundation of virtually every major American music form of the 20th century.
