    All Music Guide Review

    No less than 45 R&B hits from a single year may be a bit more than any reasonable needs, yet this Indigo collection does include a surprising amount of great music. Track highlights include "Chicken Shack Boogie" by Amos Milburn, "They Call It Stormy Monday" by T-Bone Walker, "Tomorrow Night" by Lonnie Johnson, "Good Rockin' Tonight" by Wynonie Harris, "Messin' Around" by Memphis Slim, and "Pretty Mama Blues" by Ivory Joe Hunter. ~ Earl Simmons, All Music Guide
