Review
The second volume of American Folk Blues Festival: 1962-1969 was originally recorded by German promoters and blues fanatics Horst Lippmann and Fritz Rau, who originally booked the tours through Europe. These 16 tracks have been deemed highlights and it's hard to argue with that assessment, especially when the musicians present include Howlin' Wolf, Magic Sam, Skip James, Earl Hooker, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Bukka White, Koko Taylor, Big Joe Turner, Big Mama Thornton, Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Hound Dog Taylor, Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson, and Son House. These highlights will please both the collector and the casual fan. ~ Al Campbell, All Music GuideTracks
