NOTES

This is a well-chosen Sonny Boy compilation and the only one to draw from the four distinct phases of his recording career: Trumpet (1951-55), Chess (1955-64), Storyville (1963), and the European tours (1963-65).

Many thanks to William E. Donoghue, a.k.a. "'Fessor Mojo", of Seattle, Washington, for providing the above details.
