Following the precedent established by previous label best-of's like Blind Pig Sampler (1990) and Blind Pig Records: 20th Anniversary Collection (1997), Blind Pig Records' 25th Anniversary Collection digs into the blues label's deep archive for a number of classic performances. Some of the featured performances include B.B. King and Arthur Adams' "Get You Next to Me," Taj Mahal and Big Bill Morganfield's "Strong Man Holler," Muddy Waters' "Honey Bee," and Coco Montoya's "Fear No Evil." Much like the aforementioned previous Blind Pig best-ofs, this collection provides a hefty showcase of some of the blues label's better releases. ~ Jason Birchmeier
