A 2002 double-CD compilation on UK label Manteca surveying blues that migrated beyond Mississippi's borders -- geographically and stylistically. Tracks include Nina Simone's "Mississippi Goddam," Billie Holiday's "Strange Fruit," and Dr. John's "Gris-Gris Gumbo Ya Ya," alongside lesser-known cuts from artists across gospel, boogie, and folk blues traditions. A broad sweep with strong track selection.
