King compilation concentrates on nothing but his US chart hits between 1951 & 1960. This selection features several No. 1s and many tracks that made the Billboard Top 10.

[engl] EARL HOOKER would undoubtedly have gone on to enjoy a major international career during the Blues/Rock era, had he been blessed with better health; but he sadly died in 1970, at the age of only forty. A cousin of John Lee Hooker, Earl was an exceptional slide player, known widely as 'The guitarists' guitarist'. He recorded few vocals as he was hindered by a stutter, to compensate, he concentrated on developing his playing technique. This compilation focuses on his earliest recordings between 1953-62, several of which were not commercially released until after his death.

[engl] One thing is certain about the idiosyncratic J. B. Lenoir, he was a true original. No one ever sounded quite like him and despite comparisons by some writers to Arthur Crudup his high pitched vocals were pretty much unique. Although J. B. Lenoir only had one hit in the US with 'Mama Talk to Your Daughter' his influence over the British blues scene was immense. In fact John Mayall was a huge fan and he helped to get his 45s released in the UK. Rocking R&B and topical social commentary all thrown in the mix. This is Chicago blues with a twist. Let's call it Chicago blues J.B. Lenoir style.
