All Music Guide - Dennis MacDonald
A stellar 18-song compilation with most tracks not duplicated on other in-print collections. Treasures abound here: rare tracks from John Lee Hooker and Lightnin' Hopkins, Hop Wilson's original "Merry Christmas, Darling" covered by The Fabulous Thunderbirds on An Austin Rhythm & Blues Christmas, Louis Jordan's last recording "Santa Claus, Santa Claus," [1968], and more.
