Коко Тэйлор – абсолютная рекордсменка среди блюзовых вокалисток по количеству полученных блюзовых премий W.C.Handy (24 награды) и признанная королева блюза из Чикаго, возведенная в 1997 году в зал славы блюза. С момента записи знаменитого хита Wang Dang Doodle (написанного Уилли Диксоном специально для нее) и до смерти в 2009 году Коко выпустила с десяток классических альбомов, вошедших в золотой фонд современного блюза. Последние 30 лет творчества Коко была вне конкуренции.
Сборник ранних записей будущей королевы чикагского блюза из серии Legendary Masters охватывает ее сотрудничество с лейблом братьев Чесс с 1964 года до ухода на Аллигатор рекордз. На сборнике представлен материал с первых двух сольных альбомов Коко (Koko Taylor 1969 (треки 2 – 4, 9, 10, 12) и Basic Soul 1972 (треки 14 – 16)), а также ее синглы и концертный дуэт с Мадди Уотерсом на фестивале в Монтре 1972 года (последний трек). Большая часть материала написана Уилли Диксоном, а при записи помогают лучшие музыканты чикагского блюза – Диксон, Бадди Гай, Лафайет Лики, Уолтер Хорнтон и другие. Продюсировал Уилли Диксон.
Наглядная иллюстрация того, с чего начиналась карьера великой певицы.
Review by Hal Horowitz This single disc neatly collects everything of importance that Chicago blues belter Koko Taylor released through Chess and its subsidiary Checker label, presenting a thoroughly enjoyable, collection as historically important for Taylor's sizzling performances as it is for Willie Dixon's sublime compositions and sympathetic production. Those who know these formative years from Taylor's immortal "Wang Dang Doodle" will thrill to realize that the classic isn't even the best entry here. It's a toss-up as to which others challenge it, but "What Came First the Egg or the Hen," with Dixon joining in on vocals, is in the running, as is the absolutely chilling "Insane Asylum," where Dixon interestingly kicks off the song before Taylor appears over a minute later. The producer/bassist/songwriter/singer pens all but one of the 18 songs. Taylor tackles politically charged territory in "Bill, Bills and More Bills," one of the few times that the material leans in that direction. While her later Alligator years might have exposed her talents to the world and helped crown her Queen of the Blues, this is where it all started. It shows how Taylor developed, with assistance from Willie Dixon over this fertile, seven-year stretch, to her well-earned legendary status.
