About Elmore James & His Broomdusters - The Classic Early Recordings: 51-56
Originally released in a long box and long out of print in that format, this amazing anthology has now been revamped as a 3-CD jewel case release.
A huge influence on the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds and Fleetwood Mac, as well as being a giant on the blues scene, this set contains 71 tracks from Elmore's recordings for the Meteor, Flair and Modern labels, as well as the classic 'Dust My Broom' for Trumpet.
Cub Koda described the original box thus - "The intensity of James' vocals are nothing short of riveting and the material collected here (along with breakdowns, studio chat, etc.) is simply the best of James' early '50s sides and a box set well worth saving up for." The new packaging, which includes all but one of the photos from the old long-box set, and the new, lower price, mean you don't have to save up as long. Album Description
