2011 compilation that celebrates Blues music and the artists who have made a huge impact on the genre. Without the Blues there would be no Rock "n" Roll, no Rock music nor almost every kind of popular music that"s listened to today. The Blues continues to influence contemporary music and has inspired musicians of all generations to embrace its emotion. It"s been said that Little Walter was to harmonica blues what Charlie Parker was to Jazz saxophone and Jimi Hendrix was to Rock guitar and it"s impossible to argue. He almost singlehandedly fashioned the stylistic approach for harmonica which has since become standard for the genre and has been emulated by virtually every blues harmonica player. Polydor.
