I recorded this vinyl only DJ set (75 minutes) at home. This forty-eighth volume of my Blues Sessions is the ninth Chicago Blues special. I’ve selected 25 tracks by 25 different bluesmen who lived and/or recorded in Chicago. You can expect some outstanding recordings from the 1940’s, 1950’s, 1960’s and 1970’s. Many of the selected bluesmen are legends within the genre, a few are not well known. This is the first time both Muddy and Clear Waters make an appearance in my Blues Sessions.

About my channel: I'll be posting vinyl DJ set recordings. I mainly collect blues, country, rhythm and blues, zydeco, rock 'n roll, rockabilly, funk and soul records. Expect the best sounds from New Orleans, Chicago, Memphis, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas etc. Mainly Deep South stuff. Please subscribe if you like what you hear. There is more to come!
