Editorial Reviews

Compiled by the Ace label from Arhoolie's extensive back catalog, the Let's Have a Blues Ball sampler -- subtitled "The Music of the Juke Joints" -- primarily focuses on piano-based numbers, but also includes guitar workouts from the likes of Lightnin' Hopkins, Earl Hooker and L.C. Robinson. Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
