I know that there are a million blues music experts that will scoff at this mix. It's not meant to be the most expertly crafted, most racially diverse, most historically important, the best of, the most obscure, the most mainstream, the most PURE, the most ANYTHING. It is just a collection of blues songs that I love to death (if you would like to know more about The Blues, read the wikipedia page on it or something). Some of them you may be familiar with, some you may not, but one thing is plain to see from this list: I like songs about sex and drinking and being poor, not so much the political commentary. Expect some dirty business is all I'm sayin.
