{"product_id":"taj-mahal-the-collection","title":"TAJ MAHAL - The Collection","description":"Taken from the vaults of Columbia Records, this collection of the early music by Taj Mahal is a decent but far from comprehensive overview of his four decades of Blues. What it does contain is most of his best loved and prized material, culled mostly from the early to mid-'70s. The 19 cuts start strong with \"Fishin' Blues\" and \"Leaving Trunk\" and moves on to \"Six Days on the Road,\" \"Statesboro Blues\" and \"Farther on Down the Road\" before going into some lesser known but still tasty material. There's a very small sampling of his calypso phase as on \"Clara (St. Kitts Woman).\" Because many of his original recordings have not been reissued on CD, this is a good primer for new fans to explore his large discography and repertoire, and comes easily recommended.\u003cul class=\"tracklisting\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA1 Fishin' Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA2 Leaving Trunk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 Six Days On The Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA4 Dust My Broom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA5 Going Up To The Country\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB1 Candy Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB2 Staggerlee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB3 Diving Duck Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB4 Clara (St Kitts Woman)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB5 Statesboro Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC1 A Lot Of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC2 Take A Giant Step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC3 Further Down The Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC4 Little Red Hen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC5 E-Z Rider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD1 Texas Woman Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD2 A Free Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3 Oh Mama, Don't You Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD4 Railroad Bill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD5 Everybody's Got To Change Sometime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAJ MAHAL","offers":[{"title":"VG \/ NM \/ Castle \/ CCSLP 180","offer_id":57243041366389,"sku":"194182","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0223\/4339\/files\/image_2004783.jpg?v=1780408264","url":"https:\/\/www.vinylexchange.co.uk\/products\/taj-mahal-the-collection","provider":"Vinyl Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
