Reed,Jimmy Wailin' The Blues CD

Probably the most successful R&B crossover artist of the 1950's, bluesman Jimmy Reed's hypnotic guitar patterns, wailing harmonica and laid back singing style endeared him to a more mainstream audience than previous blues greats. One of the first electric blues artists, Reed was a main inspiration for early rock n' rollers and influenced a wide range of artists from the Beatles to the Rolling Stones. "Wailin' the Blues" first released in 1962, has become a cult favorite among blues connoisseurs and contains many rare tracks not available anywhere else. All selections newly re-mastered.
