Venus travailler dans les chantiers navals de la Côte Pacifique durant la guerre, les bluesmen texans rencontrent les crooners noirs du tout "Black Hollywood", donnant le California blues, une forme originale et très influente du blues jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Ce coffret invite l'auditeur à une expédition en musique aux sources de ce style californien.
Wartime. Workers are needed in the shipyards of the Pacific Coast and the bluesmen of Texas pack their bags and move to California. Once there, they find themselves side by side with the crooners from "Black Hollywood". The resulting fusion of styles gave birth to the "California blues". Listen to this set and travel back to the very sources of this highly original and still very influential style.
