Today, blues and R&B music are no longer the preserve of working class African Americans and, although the city of Memphis itself has changed, the influence of its legendary performers can be heard in the recordings on this cd. The selections here, taken from the current generation of blues and R&B artists, represent the best of the new era of Memphis Music.

Although they are continuing the traditions of artists such as B.B. King, Howlin' Wolf and Sonny Boy Williamson, these artists sing new songs with new voices; however, the intertwined threads of anguish and joy, agony and celebration are still present, as they in the primitive blues that W.C. Handy heard down on Beale Street all those years ago. /Excerpt from the liner notes
