ALBUM

Volume 1

Volume 2

While the title Blues Gold is quite a stretch, this double-disc set highlights several different varieties of the genre, encompassing Chicago blues harpist Snooky Pryor, legendary folksinger Leadbelly, big-band vocalist Joe Williams, and jump blues eccentric H-Bomb Ferguson. While the sound quality varies throughout, this is a decent blues primer for the novice at a bargain-bin price. ~ Al Campbell
