Peter Green – ‘The Anthology’ (4 CD Set);
This is a 64-track, 4-CD retrospective telling the story of a British guitar legend and blues institution. The set contains essential Peter Green music drawn from all stages of his career. From his first tentative recordings with the likes of Peter Bardens and John Mayall, it moves through the genesis of Fleetwood Mac and the band’s many classic blues recordings and rock fusion chart hits are all included, as is the best of his later solo work and Splinter Group recordings. This is his first complete career overview and also represents the first time that Peter Green himself has had an active involvement in such a project, working closely with Salvo and compiler John Crosby, helping to make this set the ultimate Peter Green collection.

Rory Block – ‘Blues Walkin’ Like A Man: A Tribute To Son House’ (CD);
This album recreates and reinterprets the music of the father of the delta blues. Rory Block was 15 years old when she met Son House. Two improbable people. A young teenage Greenwich Village guitar prodigy and an older black man, 62, who had recorded nine of the most powerful blues pieces ever for the Paramount label in 1930. Now, more than 40 years later, the guitarist has paid Son House an ultimate tribute: a collection of 13 songs associated with the legendary blues singer.

B.B King – ‘At Sing Sing Prison’ (Live DVD);
Film-makers David Hoffmann and Harry Wiland were allowed into New York’s notorious Sing Sing prison, not just to make a film themselves, but to teach film-craft to some of the inmates. Many acts were approached to take part, and most refused, but Blues legend B.B. King and veteran folk singer and activist Joan Baez recognised the importance of the venture, and with enthusiastic support from The Voices Of East Harlem, comedian Jimmy Walker and performances from a few of Sing Sing’s inmates, a unique and never-to-be-forgotten show was staged. This DVD is not just the film of an extraordinary concert however, it is also a touching and enlightening documentary about the creation, production and filming of that concert, and equally works as a revealing tale of American prison life in the early 1970s. First time on DVD. Presented in deluxe 6 panel digipack with rare photographs from the concert and the full story of the making of this extraordinary film.
