Join us as we go back to the 1930s and dig out some of the rarest blues of all time. From Leroy Carr and Robert Johnson to Big Bill Broonzy and Blind Willie McTell, these tunes all have one thing in common — not a single one was ever issued at the time they were made. Rare blues from the American Record Corporation, on this episode of Blues Unlimited.
Illustration by the Daily Planet/Tom Wilson, depicting Robert Johnson's recording debut in a San Antonio hotel room, 1936.
