Review
Blind Pig Records 30th Anniversary Collection features 33 tracks from this influential independent blues label. While this is a solid two-disc set, it contains few surprises and no unreleased tracks. What does make this collection appealing is the bonus DVD featuring six live performances from the Blind Pig archives by Tommy Castro, Popa Chubby, Magic Slim & the Teardrops, Rod Piazza & the Mighty Flyers, Reverend Billy C. Wirtz, and Smokin' Joe Kubek with Bnois King. ~ Al Campbell, All Music GuideTracks
