A good place to get to know T-Bone

Docendo Discimus | Vita scholae | 12/16/2003

(4 out of 5 stars)

"If you're new to the jazzy, smoky and highly influential electric blues of Aaron Thibeaux Walker, and perhaps looking for a suitable compilation to start you off, this could be what you are looking for.
The sound on this very reasonably priced Indigo release is fine, and it contains many of Walker's best songs, including "Mean Old World", and of course "They Call It Stormy Monday". Sure, it doesn't have all of T-Bone Walker's important recordings (no single-disc could accomplish that), but "T-Bone Blues" is a good way to start off your T-Bone Walker-collection, although it doesn't quite match Rhino's Blues Masters album "The Very Best Of T-Bone Walker"."
