  • Description

    Part of Concord Music Group's 'Collection' series, this thirteen track compilation gathers together some of the finest tracks that the blues musician Otis Taylor has recorded for the Telarc label.

    Chances are you already know roots visionary Otis Taylor's music from the movies ("Ten Million Slaves" in 2009's Johnny Depp - driven drama Public Enemies, "Nasty Letter" in 2007's Shooter, starring Mark Wahlberg, and a slew of tracks, including "Hand on Your Stomach" and "Rain so Hard" in 2002's Billy Bob Thornton-led The Badge, are just a handful of credits). To call Taylor a cutting edge artist is an understatement. Although his music is based in the blues and folk realm, his meticulously crafted recordings crash the barriers of jazz, rock, funk, Americana and a myriad of other genres to create a hybrid that Taylor labels "trance blues." That signature style serves as a backbone for his frank tales of struggle, freedom, conflict and desire.
