I'm a collector of sinister blues songs, preferably before 1960. I don't like sad lovelorn blues where the protagonists have been done wrong and aren't doing anything about it except crying or turning their eyes to Jesus. I like songs about sex, violence and Black Magic. And I don't like clean BB King bullshit that's lit by a soft neon Budweiser light. George Thorogood can kiss my balls. Here's a dirty, mean and diabolical mix (the songs are available on iTunes). It's the perfect length for your standard 80-minute CD-R. Enjoy, sinners.
