"Long time BBC Radio 2 broadcaster and blues musician, Alexis Korner, occupies a pivotal role in the development of British blues and many of the greats passed through his group, Blues Incorporated, and these included Eric Clapton, Cyril Davies, drummers Hughie Flint and John Stevens, vocalist Paul Rodgers and, surprisingly, avant-garde jazz saxophonist, Evan Parker ... You would have to search in numerous directions to find that very material and this box set has the considerable merit of grouping together disparate labels and accompanying musicians into one cohesive whole, with a plethora of graphics to communicate in the clearest manner possible the story of Korner the musician, and to this extent, for younger blues fans and more seasoned observers of the blues alike, it is an essential platform with which to discover and appreciate his musical talents".

"Music that inspired in many shades of the blues ... This collection (in a 3CD box with words and photo-packed 24-page book) is a veritable history course ...".

"There was a commonly held wisdom (...) that whilst a wonderful man, organiser, activist, and catalyst for myriad bands (...), Alexis wasn't a particularly top-class player himself. One of the things this exceptional 3-CD box ought to do is dispel that myth ... The opening track, the celebrated "3/4 AD", has him hoding his own alongside the great Davey Graham, laying the groundwork for all those Jansch/Renbourn duets that it would spawn ... Play out these 3 CDs of remarkable variety, often originality, and bask in the soul, vision and, yes, musicality of one of 20th century British music's greats. There are rarities and oddities for sure - a version of Preachin' The Blues on bottleneck bouzouki, anybody? - but what you'll realise long before the end is that for all the people he mixed up with and "curated" into bands, Alexis sounded like Alexis ... Essential".
