Charlie McCoy was one of the most important figures in pre-war Blues, via his own work or backing others, and on this release, for the first time ever, the whole musical story is told. McCoy's versatility meant that he was in demand from artists in all strands of Blues and as a result this compilation contains a cross-section of styles by some of Blues most influential artists, performing some of their most important works, all with much stronger audio clarity than has been available before.
