Among the most obscure recordings from Lonnie Johnson's career, the 23 selections on this CD were cut after the recording strike of 1942-1944 ended and just prior to the blues singer/guitarist joining the King label. Johnson is heard in trios (usually including pianist Blind Davis) plus on two numbers on which he backs the singing of Karl Jones. The music is (as was true throughout his career) consistently enjoyable with strong musicianship and a gentler side of the blues than was usually performed by Johnson's country blues counterparts. Well worth exploring. ~ Scott Yanow   Compilation Appearances Vol. 2-(1927-29) 1962-65 American Folk Blues Fe King R & B Box Set Smithsonian Folkways-American Vol. 2-Rose Grew Around The Br Turn Back The Clock Broke Black & Blue Vol. 7-(1927-55) Vol. 6-(1930-32) 1926-44 Every Day I Have The Blues Dirty Blues Bill Wyman's Blues Odyssey American Roots Music Very Best Of Kingfederal Deluxe Vol.1 Dirty Blues When The Sun Goes Down Secret History (Limited Edition) Legendary Jazz Guitarists: 1927-1941 Back To The Crossroads: Roots Of Robe Greatest Blues Century Of The Blues Blues 1925-1952 Chicago Urban Blues 1923-1945 B.o.
