Compil. UK 2018 on Acrobat label
Blues (Chicago Blues, Delta Blues)

From the rear insert: “Most of the recordings included here were transferred from shellac 78s from the original era, and are of variable quality. The sources have been cleaned as far as possible using digital de-noising software, but further treatment would prejudice the integrity of the original performance. We have taken the view that collectors would prefer to hear the recordings in this state rather than not have them at all, so we have chosen to include them.” THIS COMPILATION ℗ 2017 ACROBAT LICENSING LTD.
