During his lifetime and traveled the east coast playing the blues on the streets. He recorded a bunch of singles. But I don't think he ever had any commercial success or anything. In the early 60's some of his work got rediscovered and the compilation record King of the Delta Blues Singers became a huge hit. The whole wave of British blues musicians picked up on him from there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is really the most important or interesting artist that got dug up. The 30s? That’s legit. Then there was Sea sick Steve. I just wonder if there will be a digital Dylan?

That King Of The Delta Blues Singers record was from '61 (definitely not a cd) and it was a compilation released by Columbia of some of the singles he'd recorded back in '36 and '37 and some unreleased stuff from that time. The Stones probably got to know his music through that. '61 fits their timeline nicely. But he died in '38. And he was born in '11. Which, incidentally, makes him the oldest member of the 27 club that I know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it became just another cd next to Lanegan or Leadbelly to me. Like The Doors and Nirvana is about a certain time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny ain't cheating, that was the only Heartbreakers album, you're spot on correct. I almost didn’t count Big L, but since his second album wasn’t 100% done and came out after he died I figured what the hell. L.A.M.F is one of my favorite albums ever. It has a really, really good sound to it. The type of sound that has a certain feeling to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The earliest technical albums were ''books'' of 78s, and were all classical albums and spoken word releases (e.g., comedy records). The long-player vinyl was not even invented until 1948, first utilised in jazz and easy listening (alongside the aforementioned classical and spoken word releases) before proliferating in rock-pop, although the 45 still remained the dominant format until the ''album age''. So any popular act before 1948, by default, never released an album basically; think the great jazz-swing and blues recordings, Louis Armstrong and the Hot Five, Robert Johnson, etc. The album as an ''artistic'' medium is a slightly different topic and that only began, pertaining to rock-pop, from circa mid-'60s with the ''album age'', Blonde on Blonde, Pet Sounds, Pepper, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess when I say band I mean hair metal and when I say record I mean cd. I really don”t consider anything pre Beatles to be a band that could get big without a cd. I was thinking could Fall Out Boy never release an album but somehow tour stadiums, maybe just using YouTube to release songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
