Description:
For the first time on one CD, two landmark albums by Grammy Award-winning blues master Taj Mahal Oooh So Goodn Blues (1973) and Recycling The Blues & Other Related Stuff (1972). All Music Guide described Mahal as One of the most prominent figures in late 20th century blues, the singer/multi-instrumentalist playing an enormous role in revitalizing and preserving traditional acoustic blues. He first came to prominence in the mid-60s as a founding member of the legendary Rising Sons alongside Ry Cooder, before striking out on his own with a string of successful albums for Columbia. He continued to broaden his approach by taking in folk and roots music influences from around the world.
