  • The Story Of The Blues is an LP by Various from 1972 released on the Avan-Guard label.

    About this album

    The Story Of The Blues is a landmark blues primer, presenting a broad historical sweep of the form through performances drawn from country, Delta, Piedmont, Texas, Chicago and piano blues traditions. Compiled by blues scholar Paul Oliver, it reflects the mid-century effort to document the music’s roots, regional styles and migration into urban modernity. Rather than treating the genre as a single sound, it shows how field recordings, acoustic solo performances and tougher city blues each shaped the story. Its value lies in both curation and context: a concise, serious overview of the tradition that helped define blues scholarship for later listeners.
