Here you have a collection of great music by many of the finest singers ever to inhabit the world of jazz and R&B. Despite the album's title, not every song aboard is pure blues, but each and every one of the singers assembled here had the ability to turn even the cheesiest of ballads into something that dripped blues whenever they chose to heap up the required, highly personalised, emotion.
