The Chess Box
: :Best known for his work as a songwriter, producer, and talent scout, singer-bassist Willie Dixon essentially built Chicago's Cobra and Chess labels with his sweat. Although this double-disc set does include five performances by the man from Vicksburg, Mississippi, himself, it's really a testament to his songwriting prowess, packed with recordings that made his tunes classics of blues and early rock & roll. There's Howlin' Wolf tearing through 'Spoonful,' 'Little Red Rooster,' 'Evil,' and 'Back Door Man.' There's Muddy Waters belting 'You Shook Me,' 'Hoochie Coochie Man,' and 'I'm Ready.' There's Bo Diddley ...

Swing
: :The truth is that Suzy Bogguss, whose early music reflected her love of Western tunes and yodeling, never really fit into assembly-line Nashville. Rarely did her major-label producers allow her to reveal her true self. This time, she reveals nothing but that. Masterfully produced by Asleep at the Wheel's Ray Benson, she's at home with every tune, be it time-honored jazz chestnuts like Billie Holiday's 'Comes Love' and Duke Ellington's 'Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me' or fresh, witty contemporary numbers by Nashville jazz chanteuse-writer April Barrows. Benson, who duets with Bogguss ...
