Label GB

Pretty much does what it says. Three cds and 57 tracks of essential Bobby "Blue" Bland. Bland developed a sound that mixed gospel with the blues and R&amp;B. He was described as "among the great storytellers of blues and soul music... [who] created tempestuous arias of love, betrayal and resignation, set against roiling, dramatic orchestrations, and left the listener drained but awed." He was sometimes referred to as the "Lion of the Blues" and as the "Sinatra of the Blues". His music was also influenced by Nat King Cole.
