Description
This 32 tracks collection are an enjoyable history lesson of the genre, as stated by Eric Clapton, “the powerful drug”, the Blues. 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 mayor American music form of the 20th century.
