Notes

Willie Dixon was without doubt the ultimate blues songwriter, sideman, and producer. It is impossible to overestimate his importance. He was a monster force in the post-war Chicago blues scene as well as a decisive influence on modern rock `n' roll music. 48 tracks feature amazing artists such as Johnny Winter, Little Walter, Robert Nighthawk, Bo Diddley, Howlin' Wolf, Lowell Fulson, and more.
