Various Artists - Bottleneck Guitar 1926-2015

Another classic 4 CD Set for JSP. This time concentrating on the bottleneck style.

Most labels can offer either 'vintage' recordings or contemporary material. Here we have the opportunity to do both on one set. The newer material here on disc 4 both stands alongside the vintage tracks and also moves things along stylistically as it should. Modern blues must reflect the time that it's recorded but also that certain fundamental rules apply to how 'real music' should be recorded.

So the Blues didn't die, hasn't died, has some really top class modern practitioners and we can enjoy the great classics as one discs 1 to 3 and the recent and modern classics as on Disc 4 here.
