Elmore James

Description:

The King of Slide Guitar! This remastered edition includes all of Elmore James' recordings for legendary NY producer Bobby Robinson's Fire & Enjoy label from 1959 to 1963, during his later years and peak years! Also included are bonus recordings of Elmore participation released under the name of Sam Myers and Marshall Jones (think Homesick James). Numerous compilations were released in connection with Elmore, but most of them are hard to find now. This is a definitive 3CD set that you should definitely listen to after all these years.
