Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 3/23/95, p.123
3.5 Stars - Very Good - "...documents the complex cross-pollination that routinely occurred among Memphis blues artists. This in-breeding gave the city a strong but shifting blues sound, rather than one that could be clearly distinguished from the Delta style or East Coast approaches..."
Living Blues - 9-10/94, pp.89-90
"...an excellent introduction to the diverse music played by pre-war Memphis blues artists..."
