Betsie Brown is a tireless person who leads marketing company Blind Raccoon with an excellent line-up of albums she promotes. Together with Sallie Bengston, they are also responsible of Blue Heart record label. Both have just made a wise selection of their artists to be included in this album, which gathers fifteen original songs coming from previously released albums, together with some unreleased material.

The selection is totally impressive, varied, and becomes a magnificent example of the artists’ quality Blind Raccoon and Blue Heart promote, not only in USA but internationally too, which today have made them to enjoy a recognized prestige in the blues scene.

You will find names like Mississippi MacDonald, Anthoni Geraci, Kip London, Douglas Avery, Teresa James & The Rhythm Tramps, The Texas Horns, Benny Turner, Dave Keyes, Trevor B. Power, Terry Wilson-Slesser, Bug Harp George, Steve Howell & The Mighty Men, Kenny Parker, Blind Lemon Pledge and Reverend Freakchild. It is a long list, but I did not want to forget any of the musicians included in the recording, because I dare say all listeners will certainly appreciate and enjoy the variety, quality, elegance and eclecticism of the artists who make up Blind Raccoon rooster, something that becomes a stunning company business card.

Listening to the album you will immediately realize it is an essential tool for blues fans to taste once again the more than interesting music coming from all these great artists who, together with Blind Raccoon, keep the blues alive in the 21^st. century.
