Comment:
Obviously, my definition of "R&B" is very elastic here, but I wanted to give an idea of the direction jazz and blues took on their way toward soul and rock. Disc one of three; this covers 1941-7.Feedback:
Some truly great tunese on this series. Let me know if you'd like to trade for anything.
