Bear Family BCD 17515 The Memphis Blues Box
- Original Recordings 1914–1969

 
When Bear Family goes all out on one of its box sets you can expect something special and this one, just arrived, is a doozy.

This is a 20 CD set with 534 tracks (more than 25 hours of music) accompanied by a 360 page hard cover book tracing the history of blues in one of the great blues cities, Memphis, from 1914 to 1969. It is housed in an LP sized box and weighs in at almost 10 pounds.

The first 11 CDs are devoted to pre war blues and includes artists like W.C. Handy, Sadie James, Furry Lewis, The Memphis Jug Band, Jim Jackson, 'Mooch' Richardson, Frank Stokes, Will Weldon, Walter Rhodes, Hambone Willie Newbern, Robert Wilkins, Hattie Hart, Memphis Minnie, John Estes, Will Batts and many, many more.

The remaining nine CDs features postwar blues from Memphis Slim, B.B. King, Joe Hill Louis, Roscoe Gordon, Ike Turner, Howling Wolf, Jackie Brenston, Walter Horton, Rufus Thomas, Bill Harvey Orchestra, Carl Perkins, Don Hines, Junior Parker, Johnny Lewis, BIg Lucky Carter and many, many more.

Although most of the tracks have been reissued before, many are not currently available elsewhere, and all the tracks have been newly remastered from best available 78s, record company acetates and original master tapes.

The book includes an introduction by Charlie Musselwhite along with contributions from experts like David Evans, Paul Swinton, Tony Russell, Bob Eagle and many others and includes newly researched information, biographies of all the artists and many rare photos, some previously unpublished.
