Everything blues : the singer, the writer, the producer 1954-1962

"Everything Blues (...) explores his career as a writer, producer, arranger and musician. Dixon plays bass on all 25 tracks. The first 14 songs are his early solo recordings for Chess ... The remainder are classic, more musically sophisticated Dixon songs, sung mostly by Muddy Waters, Otis Rush, Little Walter and Howlin' Wolf ... Everything Blues is a clear indicator that Dixon's songwriting, in various styles, is unmatched in blues history".
