Descripción de Four from Delmark: The Desert Island Classics, Part 1 (Hour 2)

Join us for the start of a new series, called "Desert Island Classics." The idea is to showcase blues albums that are so essential, you wouldn't want to be without them if you were ever unexpectedly stranded on a remote outpost somewhere. For the initial installment, we’ll be taking a look at four LPs from Delmark Records — all of them, at least in our book anyway — essential listening for any blues fan. That includes "Hoodoo Man Blues" by Junior Wells, and Magic Sam's "West Side Soul;" two LPs that have earned the respect of critics from around the world, received industry awards, and decades after their release, still consistently land near the top of any "Best Of" list. In addition, we'll hear two more five-star offerings from the Delmark catalog, "The Legend of Sleepy John Estes," and "Piney Woods Blues," by Big Joe Williams. Along the way, we'll have time for guest appearances from Speckled Red (who has the distinction of being the very first blues artist to record for Delmark back in 1956), and also, slide guitar master, J.B. Hutto. It's the first four picks from our list of "Desert Island Classics," on this episode of Blues Unlimited.
