Need Help Figuring This Out


  • Robert Johnson: The Centennial Collection, a new version of 1990’s The Complete Recordings updated for a new generation.
  • Rarities From The Vaults, a double CD comprising Blues from the Victor Vault, a dozen rarely-collected 78s from the Victor archive by Frank Stokes, Tommy Johnson, Sleepy John Estes and other recorded between 1928 and 1932, as well as Also Playing …10 tracks featuring artists recorded during the same San Antonio and Dallas sessions as Robert Johnson.
  • The Life & Music of Robert Johnson: Can’t You Hear The Wind Howl? a DVD of the critically-acclaimed 1997 documentary film, directed by Peter Meyer, hosted by Danny Glover, and featuring Keb’ Mo’ as Robert Johnson. The 76-minute film also includes interviews with Robert Cray, Johnny Shines, John Hammond, Honeyboy Edwards, Robert Lockwood Jr., Henry Townsend, Eric Clapton and Keith Richards.
I find where the first item is for sale (two CDs for $14.99 at Amazon), and where to order the collector's set, but what about all three of the above together as a set like the Wall Street Journal reviewer described Saturday-Sunday?
