Release Notes:

Despite the name on the box set, this is a Trumpet Records rather than a Sonny
Boy Williamson compilation. Most of the songs are by artists other than Sonny,
and most of those don't even feature him as guest harp player. It is a great
compilation of Sonny's tracks for that label, including alternate takes, but
it's more than that. It's the story of Sonny's Trumpet Records. He was the
label's star, and this box set charts artists - friends and accompanists - that
orbited him then, including B.B. King, Big Joe Williams, Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup
(Elvis Presley's favorite), Elmore James and Little Milton. Trumpet was the
first label to record Sonny, and here the songs that he'd reprise for Chess
might be more primitive, but it's their vitality that makes them better (compare
"Eyesight To The Blind" on Trumpet with "Born Blind" on Chess). So now you know,
what you're letting yourself in for isn't a great Sonny Boy Williamson box set
but a great box set of Sonny's Trumpet Records.
