The Unsung King of the Blues (2CD) [mp3@320]  Tampa Red  Wikipedia: Tampa Red (January 8, 1904 – March 19, 1981), born Hudson Woodbridge but known from childhood as Hudson Whittaker, was an American Chicago blues musician. Tampa Red is best known as an accomplished and influential blues guitarist who had a unique single-string slide style. His songwriting and his silky, polished "bottleneck" technique influenced other leading Chicago blues guitarists, such as Big Bill Broonzy and Robert Nighthawk, as well as Muddy Waters, Elmore James, Mose Allison and many others. In a career spanning over 30 years he also recorded pop, R&B and hokum records. His best known recordings include the "classic compositions 'Anna Lou Blues', 'Black Angel Blues', 'Crying Won't Help You', 'It Hurts Me Too', and 'Love Her with a Feeling'". Dynamite! The Unsung King of the Blues  Release Date: June 30, 2015 Label: Ace Records Catalogue Id: CDTOP2 1440 Duration: 02:27:01 Genre: Chicago Blues AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine: Amazingly, many of the recordings guitarist Tampa Red made for RCA Victor and Bluebird in the '40s and early '50s never saw reissue until this 2015 double-disc by Ace. As John Broven points out in his rightly evangelical liner notes for Dynamite! The Unsung King of the Blues, CD-era reissues of Tampa Red usually began at the beginning, which for the guitarist meant 1934, and petered out by the late '40s, which is when Tampa Red eased away from hokum and into earthy guitar-and-piano blues that had substantial influence on the electric blues of the '50s. On Dynamite! The Unsung King of the Blues, the interaction between Tampa Red and his pianists Big Maceo Merriweather and, later, Maceo's protégé Little Johnnie Jones certainly points the way to the classic sound of Chicago blues -- particularly when it's paired with a big, swinging drumbeat -- and the bluesman's repertoire was also cherry-picked by B.B. King, who found "Sweet Little Angel" here, while Elmore James took "When Things Go Wrong with You" and turned it into "It Hurts Me Too." This alone would make the RCA/Bluebird recordings here historically important but they're also an undiluted pleasure due to that easy interplay between guitarist and piano, plus Tampa Red's masterly fretwork and full, open voice. This is music pitched perfectly between the acoustic blues of Tampa Red's earliest recordings and the electrified, hopping sound of electric blues and it retains a kinetic kick all these years later; it's about time these sessions got back into print.
