The Chicago blues is a form of blues music that developed in Chicago, Illinois, by taking the basic acoustic guitar and harmonica-based Delta blues, making the harmonica louder with a microphone and an instrument amplifier, and adding electrically amplified guitar, amplified bass guitar, drums, piano and sometimes saxophone and trumpet. The music developed in the first half of the twentieth century as a result of the Great Migration, when Black workers moved from the South into the industrial cities of the North such as Chicago.
Chicago blues was originally street corner-based music. But after the music quickly gained popularity, it became a giant commercial enterprise. Soon the new style of music reached out and touched Europe, which led many famous English rock n' roll bands to get their inspiration from the Chicago blues, returning to American audiences as a pivotal influence in the development of rock music.
This 2012 Not Now Music (UK) release is a 3 CD set of 75 tracks including a broad sampling of the genre, including well known musicians such as Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, Elmore James, Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Freddy King, Sonny Boy Williamson, Little Walter and several others.
