The Chess Box
: essential recording:You can't have too much Etta James. Really. This long-overdue collection of the singer's Chess recordings includes much of her best work. Three CDs' worth. 72 tracks. Shivers abound just thinking about it. Of course, all the songs you'd expect are here: 'I Just Want to Make Love to You,' 'Spoonful,' 'Something's Got a Hold on Me,' 'Tell Mama,' and, naturally, 'At Last,' among many, many others. But you don't need me to convince you why Etta James is worth hearing; what you want to know is, is this box set ...

In Progress & in Motion: 1965-1998
: essential recording:Taj Mahal has become a blues ambassador, carrying the music to new audiences and melding it with other influences. It's altogether appropriate, then, that three of the early tracks on this three-CD set are unreleased from the Rolling Stones 1968 musical experiment, Rock and Roll Circus. This box emphasizes (but is not limited to) Taj's early career--the late-'60s through the mid-'70s--and whether he's playing solo acoustic instrumentals ('Buck Dancer's Choice'), revving up a rock band ('Statesboro Blues'), or weaving his National Steel guitar around tubas ('Sweet Mama Janisse'), the blues element ...
