Description
'Back to Korea Blues' collects together more blues and R&B songs that this time mainly reflects the disenchantment that African Americans felt as their contributions to the Second World War effort were not always recognised.
Includes songs by such luminaries as, John Lee Hooker, Sunnyland Slim, Jimmy Rogers, Lightnin' Hopkins, Bobby "Blue" Bland and more.
Songs like Sunnyland Slim's "Back To Korea Blues" and John Lee Hooker's "Build Myself A Cave" combine bitterness with jingoism.
Fans of this set will also be interested in 'Win the War Blues' (JASMCD3147) which covers the blues and R&B artists involvement in the Second World War.
Includes fully detailed liner notes.
