Leslie West
Collection
The Story
"Collection" is Leslie West's compilation of tracks recorded from his Blues Bureau years (a division of Shrapnel Records), and includes twelve tracks recorded from 1993 to 2006. West's tracks come from a number of blues CDs starting in 1993, such as "Blue Me", "Got Blooz?", "Dodgin' The Dirt" and "Live". "Collection" contains the kind of guttural vocals and soulful bluesy guitar playing that have established Leslie as one of the greatest talents in the history of rock and roll. True blues power trio that combine for a unique synergy that is seldom heard today.
