T-BONE WALKER

BEST OF THE BLACK AND WHITE & IMPERIAL YEARS

Description:
This essential collection gathers 19 of his greatest records from the Black & White labnel 1946 1947 and Imperial 1950 1953 all beautifully transferred from the original acetates or tapes. The music here is some of his best, most of it only previously reissued on a six CD Mosaic box set more than a decade ago. T Bone's guitar chords dictate the arrangements, which he called the "figuration," while his solos were characterized as the "trickeration," perhaps offering us a clue as to how he perceived what he was doing. A "tricky" solo, one that the competition couldn't copy, meant that, to hear that T Bone sound, you had to hire T Bone.
