Description

T-Bone Walker's 1959 Album T-Bone Blues Reissued as Part of the Atlantic Records 75th Anniversary Series on Hybrid Stereo SACD.

T-Bone Walker's T-Bone Blues, was recorded during three widely separated sessions in 1955, 1956 and 1957 and released by Atlantic Records in 1959.

AllMusic calls the album "the last truly indispensable disc of the great guitar hero's career" and says the tracks on the album (5 Stars) "boast magnificent prescence, with T-Bone Walker's axe so crisp and clear it seems as though he's sitting right next to you as he delivers a luxurious remake of 'Call It Stormy Monday.'"

Atlantic took some chances with Walker, dispatching him to Chicago for a 1955 date with Junior Wells and Jimmy Rogers that produced "Why Not" and "Papa Ain't Salty." Even better were the 1956-1957 L.A. dates that produced the scalding instrumental "Two Bones and a Pick" (which finds Walker dueling it out with nephew R.S. Rankin and jazzman Barney Kessel).
