Blowing the Fuse 1945

Blowing the Fuse, 1945 Jukebox Hits 

Bear Family put out 16 consecutive years of these and before we are done I expect we will see all 16. There is a whole 6 disc set of Goldwax singles too. I've been concentrating on single artist posts but these types of compilations are a lot of help putting things into focus. Bear Family, Proper, Ace (the English reissue label not the old American one) and JSP have done incredible work over the last 15 years or so, preserving so much music that might already be lost if not for them. The Dutch Chrono Classics and of course Mosaic have done huge work as well. All of these labels feed the collections I'm offering but in some of the individual artists posts I will have to pare down some huge sets into something a bit more digestible, I'll try to follow some existing blueprint of an existing release when I can but in many cases I'm looking to distill a giant collection of singles.

This looks tremendous. I enjoy the comps more than many of the single artist collections. Thanks again KC!!

How can I thank you?
Words seem so inadequate for your work in sharing.

I got all 16 of these from somewhere last year. Most with complete booklet too. I love 'em. Thanks KC.

What a good collection/anthology. Let me second DeGallo: I love'em, too. Thank you, king cake.
