Those who’ve never heard Big Joe Williams might be genuinely surprised at just how outstanding a musician he was, being tremendously accomplished on his self-made nine-string guitar and with vocals as expressive and forceful as Muddy Waters. Beautifully remastered, this collection finds Williams’ talents at their peak with a fine variation of raw country blues like “Whistling Pines” and “Kings Highway Blues,” and more strongly uptempo tracks like “Somebody’s Been Fooling #1” and “King Bisquit Stomp #2.” None of the thirteen tracks disappoint, as this ranks among the strongest releases in the Big Joe Williams’ catalogue.
