This collection of 50 tracks recorded between 1929 and 1935 presents the very best of the magnificent Willie Samuel McTell - aka Blind Willie aka Hot Shot Willie aka Georgia Bill - and explores all the genres in which his big guitar excelled like spiritual, ragtime, hillbilly, and above all, the blues. A must!
