VA - Battle of the Blues - 60 Original Blues Classics (2014)

Celebración de la condición humana en toda su gloria y defecto, aquí están las mejores canciones de blues sobre el peor de los momentos. Lucha, celos, odio, dominación, violencia callejera, locura… Sesenta cortes distribuidos en 3 discos relacionados directamente con los conflictos humanos, el desamor, la desesperación, el cuerpo a cuerpo. Artistas de la talla de John Lee Hooker, Chuck Berry, Albert King, Bo Diddley o Muddy Waters, por citar solo unos pocos, nos llevan los diferentes estadios de la 'Lucha': la calma antes de la tormenta, la batalla inevitable, la reconciliación, o en algunos casos la retribución o la venganza.
