Music reviews of The Best of Blind Lemon Jefferson
Music Review: Quality Tunes.
Rating: 4 Stars
Blind Lemon is one of the great originators of Country Blues and some of his greatest songs are present here. Sadly, some are absent, but this is still one of the best collections of Lemon's stuff.
Obviously, the sound quality is not going to be amazing given the age of the recordings, but it isn't as bad as on Founder of the Delta Blues (which is still a good collection, but none of Patton's stuff is easy to listen to because, even for it's time, the equipment used to record him was not the greatest apparently).
If someone invents a time machine, I want them to go and pick up Lemon and Charley and others and bring them to a 2007 studio. It would be great!
