Is there another more responsible for the blues as we know them than Willie Dixon? A songwriter and musician without peer, Willie wrote blues standard after blues standard. Not only did his songs become career-making hits for the likes of Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter and Otis Rush, among others, but it inspired another generation of musicians including the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds, Cream and Led Zeppelin, to name just a few.

Poet Of The Blues, available on vinyl for the first time, features 21 classic Dixon songs.

Besides his well-known songs, recorded in the early 70s, this compilation contains the classic 1947-1952 Big Three sessions. These recordings prove the most interesting historically.
